Summary:
The Sizer School: A North Central Charter Essential School is the only high school located within the Sizer School: A North Central Charter Essential (District) in Massachusetts. The school serves grades 9-12 and has faced challenges in recent years, with its performance ranking fluctuating and its academic proficiency rates consistently falling below the state averages, particularly in mathematics and science.
The school's ranking has ranged from 269 in 2022-2023 to 309 in 2023-2024, before improving slightly to 260 in 2024-2025. However, its 1-star rating out of 5 from SchoolDigger suggests that the school is underperforming compared to other high schools in the state. The school's four-year graduation rate is 91.1%, but its dropout rate is relatively high at 8.9%, which may be an area of concern.
Despite the school's higher-than-average spending per student of $17,948 for the 2020-2021 school year, its academic performance has not shown significant improvement. The school's proficiency rates in MCAS Next Generation assessments are below the state averages in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science, with some subjects experiencing declines in proficiency from the 2023-2024 school year to the 2024-2025 school year. These findings suggest that the school may need to implement targeted interventions and strategies to address the underlying issues and improve student outcomes.
