Mason Elementary School

Summary:

Mason Elementary School is a public elementary school in Roxbury, MA, serving 188 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Boston Public School District, which is ranked 305 out of 351 districts in Massachusetts and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Mason Elementary School consistently ranks in the bottom 10-15% of Massachusetts elementary schools, with a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's proficiency rates in MCAS Next Generation assessments for English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science are significantly lower than the state and Boston district averages across all grade levels. The school's performance is particularly low for African American, male, and special education students, ranking in the bottom 15-20% of Massachusetts elementary schools for these subgroups. Despite having a relatively high per-student spending of around $31,000, this does not seem to translate into improved academic outcomes for the students.

The nearby schools in the Boston Public School District, such as Winthrop Elementary, Clap Elementary, and Russell Elementary, also perform poorly on MCAS assessments, with proficiency rates well below the state average. In contrast, the nearby Bridge Boston Charter School and Dudley Street Neighborhood Charter School generally outperform Mason Elementary School and other Boston Public Schools on MCAS assessments, suggesting that the charter school model may be more effective in addressing the educational needs of the 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.

My family had a terrible experience in the this school. my autistic son was sent here to be part of this inclusion school in kindergarten (k2) . There was always a reason the teacher wouldn't allowed my son to attend field trips or participate in extra things. example-kids looked at and touched worms in science. I was told my son was not allowed to participate for fear he would hurt worms. Little did the teacher know that given the opportunity my son would have passed not wanting to go anywhere near the worms. but they made it a point to single him out and make him feel bad and different. He was not allowed to do special things on the computer for fear he might break it. Computers are what my son enjoys most and has always had nothing but respect for electronics. For his entire kindergarten year he attended there he went on zero field trips with his class because his teachers always found a reason he should be punished by excluding him from trip. (some inclusion school they turned out to be) and to top of our experience with Samuel mason my 6year old autistic son was left outside of the school at the end of the day by himself without his glasses. His bus driver (who was picking up my son only. And had only been doing so for a few days) saw my son alone put him on the bus drove him home explained how she pulled up and saw him alone with no glasses and no supervision. To top this off about a half hour after my son was dropped off the school called asking if anyone would be coming to pick my son up that day. This school had no idea of my son's whereabouts or safety for at least 45 minutes to an hour if not more. Absolutely disgraceful and unacceptable. One woman in the office actually skipped past an apology or excuse and informed me that it was chalked up to a learning experience... Which is more learning that my son received there... beware of this school... Close Quote

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.
