Summary:
The three middle schools located in Haverhill, Massachusetts serve students in grades 5-8. While the schools share some similarities, they also exhibit distinct characteristics that set them apart.
Among the standout schools, John G Whittier emerges as the highest-ranked middle school in Haverhill, ranking 334 out of 493 Massachusetts middle schools. It also boasts the highest proficiency rates in MCAS Next Generation English Language Arts and Science across all grades. In contrast, Consentino Middle School stands out for its strong performance in 8th grade MCAS Next Generation Mathematics, with the highest proficiency rates among the three schools.
While all three schools perform below the state average in MCAS assessments, the data reveals some interesting insights. The schools serve a diverse student population, with a significant Hispanic/Latino representation. Additionally, the per-student spending ranges from $14,718 to $15,827, with Dr. Paul Nettle having the highest spending per student. However, this higher spending does not seem to translate into higher academic performance, suggesting the need for a more comprehensive approach to address the schools' challenges and leverage their strengths.
