Cobbet Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom 10-15% of Massachusetts elementary schools over the past several years, with a ranking between 759 and 893 out of around 900-940 schools. The school has received a 0-star or 1-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating it is among the lowest-performing schools in the state.
