Summary:
Schools in Community Charter School of Cambridge (District) consist of a single school — Community Charter School of Cambridge — a 251-student campus at 245 Bent Street in Cambridge, Massachusetts, classified as a high school but serving grades 6 through 12, so families get both middle-grade and high-school results in one place. Because the district contains only this one school, every district-level figure is also the school's figure.
The school's strengths are notable. It earned 3 stars in 2025–2026, ranking 127 of 353 districts (64th percentile), and it posted a 92.5% graduation rate with just a 2.5% dropout rate. Its student-to-teacher ratio of 8.9 is low, and per-student spending was $26,306 in 2020–2021 — though that spending figure is several years old. In 2025–2026 MCAS results, All Grades ELA (45.65%) and math (41.61%) both topped state averages, and grades 7 and 8 were the clearest bright spots: 7th ELA 49.02 vs. 39.91 statewide, 8th ELA 50 vs. 41.7, 7th math 50 vs. 37.48, and 8th math 45 vs. 41.67. Science, physics, and civics were also strong, including 10th-grade science at 50 vs. 40.5 statewide and Physics End of Course at 56.41 vs. 46.58.
There are real weak points to weigh. Sixth-grade math is the most striking: 18.52% proficient against a state figure of 42.59%, far below the school's own 7th-grade math score. Sixth-grade ELA (29.63 vs. 40.26) and 10th-grade ELA (41.67 vs. 45.48) and math (39.13 vs. 43.73) also trailed the state. Year over year, All Grades ELA fell from 56.59 to 45.65 and math from 46.83 to 41.61, while science improved from 32.65 to 40.68. That ELA and math decline coincided with the school slipping from 4 stars and the 74th percentile in 2024–2025 back to 3 stars and the 64th percentile. Note also that free/reduced lunch status is not reported, so socioeconomic context cannot be assessed.
