Best Public Schools in Zip Code 02657


Summary:

The 02657 zip code is home to a single elementary school, Provincetown Schools, which serves grades PK-8 with a total enrollment of 142 students. Provincetown Schools is part of the Provincetown District, which is ranked 310 out of 351 districts in Massachusetts and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite spending a significant $44,861 per student, Provincetown Schools consistently underperforms the state averages on MCAS assessments across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in 2023-2024, the school's proficiency rate in English Language Arts for all grades was 27.78%, compared to the state average of 39.17%. In Mathematics, the school's proficiency rate for all grades was 20.83%, compared to the state average of 40.91%. This suggests that the school may need to implement targeted interventions and strategies to improve student academic achievement.

Provincetown Schools has a low student-teacher ratio of 6.3, indicating relatively small class sizes. However, this factor alone does not seem to be translating into improved academic outcomes. The school's diverse student population, with 56.34% White, 20.42% African American, 13.38% Hispanic, and 9.15% two or more races, could be an asset, but the school's performance suggests that it may not be effectively supporting the needs of all its students.
