Summary:
The city of Clinton, Massachusetts is home to three public schools serving students from elementary through high school: Clinton Elementary, Clinton Senior High, and Clinton Middle School. While the schools range in size from 545 to 840 students, they all share a common challenge - consistently low academic performance compared to state averages.
None of the Clinton schools stand out as high-performing, with all three receiving 1 or 2 out of 5 stars from SchoolDigger. The student populations are predominantly white and Hispanic, and the schools struggle to meet proficiency targets on state assessments, with 10th-grade math proficiency rates at Clinton Senior High reaching just 24.56% compared to the state average of 49.69%. Despite relatively low student-teacher ratios, the district appears to be underfunded, with per-student spending ranging from $14,555 to $16,459.
The data suggests systemic challenges within the Clinton school district that have persisted over time, with little to no improvement in the schools' rankings and ratings. Addressing the equity and resource disparities, as well as implementing effective strategies to boost academic achievement, will be crucial for the district to provide a high-quality education to its diverse student population.
