Colegrove Park Elementary

Summary:

Colegrove Park Elementary is a public elementary school located in North Adams, Massachusetts, serving grades PK-6 with a student population of 235. The school is part of the North Adams school district, which is ranked 321 out of 351 districts in the state and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Colegrove Park Elementary consistently ranks in the bottom quarter of Massachusetts elementary schools, with a ranking between 674-850 out of 916-942 schools over the past 10 years. The school's performance on MCAS Next Generation assessments is also below the state and North Adams district averages across all grades and subjects. The school's performance is particularly low for male students, White students, and disabled students, ranking in the bottom 20% of Massachusetts elementary schools for these subgroups. Despite having a higher per-student spending ($21,371 in 2020-2021) compared to the state average and a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 8.3-10 students per teacher, these factors have not translated into improved academic outcomes.

While Colegrove Park Elementary is part of the North Adams district, which is generally low-performing, the school's academic outcomes are significantly worse than those of nearby schools like Greylock and Brayton, which are also in the North Adams district. The school's statewide ranking has steadily declined over the past 10 years, from 754 out of 942 schools in 2018-2019 to 674 out of 916 schools in 2023-2024, indicating a worsening academic performance relative to other Massachusetts elementary schools.

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.
