Best Public Schools in Erving, MA

Erving, Massachusetts is served by one public school in this data set: Erving Elementary, an elementary school covering grades PK–6 with 113 students, and the only school in the Erving district. Because the district contains just this one school, its school-level and district-level results are identical. The district ranks 147 of 351 statewide, placing it in the 58th percentile with 3 stars. No middle schools, high schools, or alternative schools are reported here, so all comparisons are between this school and the state or among its own grade levels.

Erving Elementary's clearest strengths are in mathematics and science. In 2025–2026, 55.74% of students were proficient in all-grade math versus 41.11% statewide (about 14.6 points above), and 57.14% were proficient in science versus 40.98% statewide (about 16.2 points above). Third-grade math reached 75% (state 42.19%) and sixth-grade math 65% (state 42.59%). English language arts was mixed: third grade was 58.33% (state 42.79%) and sixth grade 50.00% (state 40.26%), while all-grade ELA was 39.34%, just under the state's 40.03%. The school's rank improved from 634 of 906 (30th percentile, 2 stars) in 2024–2025 to 339 of 899 (62nd percentile, 3 stars) in 2025–2026, with all-grade math rising from 22.58% to 55.74%.

Fourth grade is the main weak spot: ELA was 13.33% versus state 37.43%, and math 26.67% versus state 43.20%. With only 113 students, a single grade may hold very few children, so these percentages can swing sharply between cohorts. Science results effectively reflect fifth grade, where the score matches the all-grade figure of 57.14%. Staffing is intensive, with a student-teacher ratio of 6.1 in 2024–2025 and per-student spending of $41,150 in 2020–2021. Free/reduced-lunch data is blank, so economic context is unknown, and test scores cover only two years.
