Summary:
East Bridgewater has two elementary schools covering the PK–6 span: Central, serving grades PK–2 with 520 students, and Gordon W. Mitchell School, serving grades 3–6 with 612 students — 1,132 elementary students in total. Both belong to the East Bridgewater district, which ranks 233 out of 351 districts, a 34th percentile standing with 2 stars. Because Central serves only the youngest grades, it has no MCAS Next Generation results here; test scores are available only for Gordon W. Mitchell. Free and reduced-lunch percentages are not reported for either school, so no socioeconomic comparison is possible from this data.
At Gordon W. Mitchell, students outperformed the district in every subject and grade listed for 2025–2026, but still trailed the state in ELA (34.47 vs. 40.03, about 5.6 points lower) and math (38.89 vs. 41.11, about 2.2 points lower). Science was the relative bright spot at 42.07, above the district and slightly above the state all-grades figure, while 2024–2025 science was a major standout at 58.11 against a state figure of 41.51. Grade-level results are uneven: Grade 6 math (46.41) and Grade 6 ELA (40.52) both came in above the state, whereas Grade 5 ELA (26.71) and Grade 3 math (30.17) were the weakest results compared with state averages.
Gordon W. Mitchell's own rank history has slipped, from 3 stars and the 51st percentile in 2023–2024 to 2 stars and the 43rd percentile in 2025–2026 — still above the district's 34th percentile context. Central's notable metrics are operational: $15,916 in per-student spending from 2020–2021 versus $14,974 at Gordon, and a student-teacher ratio of 12.3 from 2024–2025 versus 11.5. Because Central has no outcome data in this dataset, those differences cannot be linked to academic performance.
