Elementary Schools in Ludlow

The Ludlow elementary school system consists of two schools: Harris Brook Elementary School and East Street Elementary School. Both schools serve students from kindergarten through 6th grade and are located in Ludlow, Massachusetts.

Based on the available data, neither Harris Brook Elementary nor East Street Elementary appear to be standout performers in the Ludlow school district or at the state level. Harris Brook Elementary is ranked 665 out of 906 Massachusetts elementary schools and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's proficiency rates on MCAS Next Generation assessments are significantly lower than the state averages across all grade levels and subject areas, with only 24.5% of students proficient or better in English Language Arts and 32.89% in Mathematics, compared to the state averages of 41.53% and 40.74%, respectively.

The data also indicates that East Street Elementary had a per-student spending of $18,352 for the 2020-2021 school year, and both schools had a student-teacher ratio of 12.3 for the 2023-2024 school year. However, the lack of detailed demographic data, such as free/reduced lunch rates, makes it difficult to assess potential equity issues within the Ludlow elementary school system. Overall, the data suggests that the Ludlow elementary school system is facing significant challenges in terms of academic achievement, and further investigation and targeted interventions may be necessary to improve student outcomes and ensure equitable access to quality education.
