New Hingham Regional Elementary

Summary:

New Hingham Regional Elementary is a public elementary school in Chesterfield, MA, serving 145 students in grades PK-6 as part of the Chesterfield-Goshen District. The school's academic performance has generally been in the middle to lower range among Massachusetts elementary schools, with proficiency rates on MCAS assessments trailing the state average by 5-15 percentage points.

However, New Hingham Regional Elementary has shown some strengths, such as strong performance for its female students and special education students in recent years. The school also maintains a relatively high per-student spending of $23,721 and a low student-teacher ratio. Compared to nearby schools in the Northampton and Gateway districts, New Hingham's academic performance is generally on par or slightly below, with some exceptions like Chester Elementary and Anne T. Dunphy School outperforming it in certain subject areas.

To improve student outcomes, New Hingham Regional Elementary may need to examine its instructional practices, curriculum, and other factors that contribute to student learning, as simply allocating more resources does not appear to be the sole solution. By learning from the successes of neighboring schools and addressing areas for improvement, the school can work to better serve its community.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
