Abbott Memorial

Summary:

Abbott Memorial is a small elementary school in Florida, MA that serves grades PK-8 with a student population of just 92 students, the vast majority of whom are White (98.91%).

Despite its small size and relatively low student-teacher ratio, Abbott Memorial has consistently struggled academically, ranking in the bottom quartile of Massachusetts elementary schools and maintaining a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's proficiency rates on the MCAS Next Generation assessments are significantly lower than the state averages across all subjects and grade levels, with just 23.53% of students meeting or exceeding expectations in English Language Arts and Mathematics in 2022-2023, compared to the state averages of 42.29% and 40.6%, respectively. This poor academic performance persists even though Abbott Memorial spends more per student than the state average.

In contrast, the nearby schools such as Hancock Elementary, Emma L Miller Elementary School, and Williamstown Elementary, which are part of the Hancock, Savoy, and Mount Greylock districts, respectively, generally perform better on standardized tests and have higher statewide rankings. This suggests that there may be opportunities for Abbott Memorial to learn from the practices and strategies of these higher-performing schools in order to improve student outcomes.

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.
