Dudley Street Neighborhood Charter School

Dudley Street Neighborhood Charter School is the sole elementary school (grades PK-5) serving 288 students in the Dudley Street Neighborhood Charter School (District) in Massachusetts. Based on the available data, this school does not appear to be a standout performer, ranking 788 out of 906 Massachusetts elementary schools for the 2024-2025 school year and receiving a 1-out-of-5-star rating from SchoolDigger.

The school's academic performance is a significant concern, with proficiency rates on the MCAS Next Generation assessments falling well below the state averages. In 2024-2025, only 22.61% of students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to the state average of 41.53%, and the Mathematics proficiency rate was just 14.78%, compared to the state average of 40.74%. Despite the school's higher-than-average per-student spending of $20,112 for the 2020-2021 school year, these low test scores suggest the school is struggling to effectively utilize its resources to improve student outcomes.

The Dudley Street Neighborhood Charter School has been consistently ranked in the bottom 20% of Massachusetts elementary schools over the past few years, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. This persistent low performance, coupled with the school's likely high-need student population, indicates that the school may require additional support and resources to address the unique challenges it faces in providing a high-quality education to its students.
