Tracy

Summary:

Tracy Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Lynn, Massachusetts, serving grades 1-5 with a total enrollment of 362 students.

Tracy Elementary's academic performance, as measured by MCAS Next Generation assessments, is significantly below the state averages across all grades and subjects. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, only 16.83% of Tracy students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to the state average of 39.17%. Similarly, in Mathematics, only 17.31% of Tracy students were proficient or better, compared to the state average of 40.91%. Tracy's statewide ranking among Massachusetts elementary schools has been consistently low, ranging from 714 out of 916 schools in the 2023-2024 school year to as low as 848 out of 928 schools in the 2022-2023 school year. The school has been rated 0 or 1 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger for the past several years.

When compared to other nearby elementary schools in the Lynn School District, Tracy's academic performance is generally lower. For example, the nearby Sewell-Anderson Elementary School outperforms Tracy in both English Language Arts and Mathematics, with significantly higher proficiency rates. Despite Tracy's higher spending per student, at $15,757 in the 2020-2021 school year, and a generally lower student-teacher ratio, the school's academic outcomes remain a concern.

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.
