Summary:
Westminster, Massachusetts is home to two schools, both elementary — Westminster Elementary serving grades 2–5 and Meetinghouse School serving PK–1 — and both belong to the Ashburnham-Westminster district, which ranks 208 of 351 with a 41st percentile and 2 stars. Together they enroll 585 students, with Westminster Elementary (375 students, about 64.1%) the larger of the two and Meetinghouse (210 students, about 35.9%) the smaller. No middle, high, or alternative schools appear in this data set, and free/reduced-lunch figures are blank for both schools, so they should be read as unreported rather than as 0%.
Westminster Elementary is where the academic data lives. Its clearest bright spot is grade 4 math at 45.36% proficient, above the district (44.94%) and the state (43.20%); all-grade math (39.49%) also edged past the district but stayed 1.62 percentage points below the state. ELA trails the state at every tested grade, with all-grade ELA at 32.73%, 7.30 points behind the state. Science showed the biggest swing: 47.19% in 2024–2025, above both district and state, falling to 29.79% in 2025–2026. Meetinghouse School has no MCAS scores or rank history, consistent with serving PK–1.
Meetinghouse stands out on resources instead: $16,235 per student in 2020–2021 versus $12,855 at Westminster Elementary, about 26.3% more, along with a higher student-teacher ratio of 15.0 versus 12.8. Westminster Elementary's rank history has held fairly steady, moving between the 38th and 42nd percentile from 2023–2024 through 2025–2026. Because spending data come from an earlier year than test scores and ratios, and because Meetinghouse cannot be judged academically from this data set, families should treat these comparisons as directional rather than definitive.
