Summary:
Clarksburg, Massachusetts has just one public school in this dataset: Clarksburg Elementary, an elementary school serving grades PK–8 with 204 students. Because it is the only school, it is also the entire Clarksburg district, which is ranked 249th of 351 districts in Massachusetts (29th percentile, 1 star) — so district and school test results are identical, and any district-level statement is also a school-level statement.
On 2025–26 all-grade MCAS results, the school trails the state in English Language Arts (31.82% proficient vs. 40.03%), Mathematics (27.41% vs. 41.11%), and Science (34.62% vs. 40.98%), with the largest gap in Mathematics. Performance is very uneven by grade, though. Standouts include 3rd-grade Mathematics at 52.38% vs. a state 42.19% (+10.19 points), 8th-grade Science at 44.83% vs. 38.93%, and 8th-grade Civics at 41.38% vs. 39.77%. Eighth-grade ELA is essentially at the state level (41.38% vs. 41.70%). Mathematics is a concentrated weakness in grades 4, 5, 7, and 8, where gaps run from about 14.75 to 22.11 points below state, while Science is split: 8th grade is above state but 5th grade is far below, at 21.74% vs. 43.07% (-21.33 points).
The trend is improving. All-grade proficiency rose from 2024–25 to 2025–26 in ELA (+2.72 points), Mathematics (+3.53), and Science (+5.67), narrowing gaps to state in every subject. The most striking change is 8th-grade Civics, which jumped from 10.53% to 41.38% (+30.85 points), moving from far below state to slightly above it. Even so, the school's rank slipped from 591 of 916 (35th percentile) in 2023–24 to 630 of 899 (30th percentile) in 2025–26, holding 2 stars each year. Other context: the student-teacher ratio is 12.3 (2024–25), and spending was $17,102 per student in 2020–21. Free/reduced-lunch data is not reported and should be treated as unknown. With 204 students across PK–8, individual grade cohorts are small, so year-to-year swings should be read with caution.
