Summary:
East Longmeadow has three elementary schools serving about 1,100 students: Meadow Brook for prekindergarten through grade 2, and Mapleshade and Mountain View for grades 3–5, all within the East Longmeadow district, which ranks 161 of 351 Massachusetts districts (54th percentile, 3 stars).
Mapleshade and Mountain View both take MCAS tests, and both have slipped in the rankings. Mapleshade moved from 396 of 916 schools (57th percentile, 3 stars) in 2023–2024 to 463 of 899 (48th percentile, 2 stars) in 2025–2026. Mountain View fell further, from 372 of 916 (59th percentile, 3 stars) to 484 of 899 (46th percentile, 2 stars). Math is their relative strength: in 2025–2026 Mapleshade posted 44.67% and Mountain View 46.37% proficient, both above the state's 41.11% though below the district's 47.02%. ELA is the clearest weak spot — Mapleshade 37.8% and Mountain View 32.93%, both below district (41.02%) and state (40.03%). Science swung sharply, from a bright spot in 2024–2025 (Mapleshade 57.45%, Mountain View 52.38%) to below district and near state levels the next year. Grade-level results show real standouts in Mountain View 3rd-grade math (67.12%) and Mapleshade 3rd-grade ELA (50.54%) and 4th-grade math (50%), while 4th-grade ELA is weak at both schools, especially Mountain View at 25.27%.
Meadow Brook stands out structurally rather than academically here: it is the largest school (516 students), with the highest per-student spending ($18,693 in 2020–2021) and the highest student-teacher ratio (14.2). Mountain View has the smallest enrollment (286) and the lowest ratio (10.6), while Mapleshade spends the least ($17,968). Because Meadow Brook serves PK–2, it has no MCAS or rank history in this data. Free/reduced lunch information is not reported for any of the three schools, so socioeconomic comparisons cannot be made.
