Elementary Schools in Cambridge


Summary:

The 12 elementary schools located in Cambridge, Massachusetts serve students from pre-kindergarten through 8th grade, with a mix of public and private institutions. The data reveals a range of academic performance, with some schools consistently ranking among the top in the state and others lagging behind.

The Amigos School, King Open, and Graham and Parks schools appear to be the middle-performing schools in the data set, with test scores around the Cambridge and Massachusetts averages. In contrast, the Maria L. Baldwin and Martin Luther King Junior schools stand out as the top performers, consistently ranking among the best elementary schools in the state with exceptional test scores.

The data suggests that factors beyond just funding and demographics, such as school leadership, teaching quality, and overall school culture, play a significant role in student outcomes. While the schools have diverse student populations, the wide disparities in test scores and statewide rankings raise questions about educational equity and the need to ensure that all students have access to high-quality educational opportunities.
