Quashnet School

Summary:

Quashnet School is an elementary school located in Mashpee, Massachusetts, serving grades 3-6 with a student population of 398. The school is part of the Mashpee school district, which is ranked 226 out of 351 districts in Massachusetts and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Quashnet School has been ranked between 449 and 582 out of 916-942 Massachusetts elementary schools over the past 10 years, with a 2-3 star rating from SchoolDigger. The school performs particularly well for Hispanic students, ranking 36th out of 379 Massachusetts elementary schools in 2020-2021. However, the school struggles with lower rankings for White students, multi-racial students, special education students, and students with low socioeconomic status. Quashnet School's proficiency rates in MCAS Next Generation English Language Arts and Mathematics are generally below the state and Mashpee district averages, with some exceptions, such as the school's 3rd-grade ELA and Math proficiency rates being closer to the state and district averages.

Quashnet School's performance is generally lower than the nearby Kenneth Coombs School, which is also in the Mashpee district, as well as the higher-performing schools in the Falmouth and Sandwich districts, such as North Falmouth Elementary, Oak Ridge, and West Villages Elementary. However, Quashnet School's strong performance for Hispanic students and its consistent spending and staffing levels suggest that there may be opportunities for improvement in addressing the needs of other student subgroups.

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.
