Summary:
The city of Dracut, Massachusetts is home to 6 schools, including 4 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. While the schools in Dracut generally perform below the state average, Greenmont Avenue Elementary stands out as the highest performing school in the district, with significantly higher MCAS proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics compared to the other schools and the Dracut district and state averages.
George H. Englesby Elementary also performs well, with the highest statewide ranking (3 out of 5 stars) and strong MCAS proficiency rates, especially in 5th grade Science. However, it has the highest student-teacher ratio (16.7) among the elementary schools, which could be an area of concern. The other schools in Dracut tend to lag behind the state averages in MCAS proficiency, especially in Mathematics and Science.
The schools in Dracut have a diverse student population, with white students making up the largest racial group. While the per-student spending is generally in line with the state average, the lack of free/reduced lunch rate data makes it difficult to fully understand the socioeconomic factors that may be influencing the schools' performance. Overall, the data suggests that the Dracut school district as a whole has room for improvement, with Greenmont Avenue Elementary and George H. Englesby Elementary standing out as the top-performing schools in the area.
