Elementary Schools in Leicester

There is only one elementary school located in Leicester, Massachusetts: Leicester Elementary. This school serves students from kindergarten to 4th grade. While the school has a diverse student population, its academic performance, as measured by MCAS test scores, is consistently below the state average in both English Language Arts and Mathematics across all grades.

Leicester Elementary has been ranked in the bottom half of Massachusetts elementary schools for the past three school years, with a 1-star rating out of 5 for the 2023-2024 school year and a 2-star rating for the previous two school years. Despite spending more per student than the state average and having a lower student-teacher ratio, the school's academic performance has declined over the past two school years, with proficiency rates ranging from 26.84% to 40.4%, compared to the state averages of 39.17% to 45.54%.

The data suggests that Leicester Elementary is a struggling school, with declining academic performance and a consistent low ranking compared to other elementary schools in Massachusetts. Further investigation and targeted interventions may be necessary to improve the school's academic outcomes and better serve its diverse student population.
