Summary

Hawlemont Regional is a small elementary school in Charlemont, MA, serving grades PK-6 with a total enrollment of 56 students. Despite its relatively high per-student spending, the school has consistently ranked in the bottom quartile of Massachusetts elementary schools, with a declining performance trend over the past several years.

Hawlemont Regional's student performance on MCAS Next Generation assessments is significantly below the state averages across all grades and subjects, and the school's overall ranking has dropped from 2 stars to 0 stars in recent years. This underperformance is seen across all student subgroups, including female, male, white, special education, and low socioeconomic status students. In comparison, nearby schools like Hoosac Valley Elementary, Colegrove Park Elementary, and Sanderson Academy have higher MCAS proficiency rates and better overall rankings.

The small size of Hawlemont Regional, along with its high per-student spending and declining performance trend, suggest that the school may be facing systemic challenges in effectively supporting student learning and achievement. Factors such as teacher quality, curriculum, and resource allocation may be contributing to the school's underperformance, and targeted interventions and additional support from the Hawlemont District and the state may be necessary to address these issues and improve student outcomes.
