North Adams


Summary:

The North Adams school district in Massachusetts consists of 4 schools, including 3 elementary schools and 1 high school. The data reveals a mix of strengths and challenges across the district. Drury High School has a lower-than-average graduation rate and a higher dropout rate compared to the state, while the elementary schools show varying levels of academic performance.

Among the elementary schools, Greylock stands out for its strong mathematics proficiency, particularly in grades 4 and 5, while Colegrove Park Elementary excels in English Language Arts and Science proficiency. However, the district as a whole lags behind the state averages in MCAS proficiency across all subjects and grade levels, suggesting systemic challenges that need to be addressed.

Despite higher-than-average spending per student and lower student-teacher ratios, the academic outcomes in the North Adams school district remain poor, raising questions about the effective allocation of resources and instructional practices. Addressing the significant achievement gaps within the district and compared to the state should be a priority for the community.
