The schools in the Somerset district generally perform well on standardized tests, with most proficiency rates above the district and state averages. This suggests a strong educational system and curriculum within the district. However, the schools have a predominantly white student population, which may be an area for the district to address and consider ways to promote a more inclusive and representative student population. The higher spending per student and lower student-teacher ratios at some schools, such as Chace Street and South, may contribute to their stronger academic performance, highlighting the potential impact of resource allocation and class sizes on student outcomes.
