Mashpee

Schools in Mashpee consist of three schools serving a total of 1,386 students: two elementary schools and one combined middle-high school, with no standalone middle school or alternative school in this data set. Kenneth Coombs School serves PK–2 (387 students), Quashnet Intermediate School serves grades 3–6 (399 students), and Mashpee Middle-High School serves grades 7–12 (600 students, the largest). The Mashpee district is ranked 203 of 351 in Massachusetts, at the 42nd percentile with 2 stars, placing it slightly below the state median. Free/reduced lunch percentages are blank for all three schools, so socioeconomic context cannot be analyzed here.

Mashpee Middle-High School is the academic standout, holding 3 stars in each of the last three years and ranking 131 of 353 (63rd percentile) in 2025–2026 — well above the district. Its 10th grade ELA is 61.43% proficient, biology 44.74%, and all-grade science 45.83%, above both district and state. Its graduation rate is 92.1%. The catch is a sharp internal split: 7th grade ELA is 19.51% and 7th grade math just 12.2%, far below state levels and likely dragging down the school's all-grade averages (all-grade math sits at 21.79%). Quashnet Intermediate School is improving, moving from the 36th to the 43rd percentile over three years, and beats the district in ELA (37.38%) and math (37.14%), though it remains below the state in all three all-grade subjects and stayed at 2 stars.

Kenneth Coombs has no test scores or rank history, as expected for a PK–2 school, so it can only be compared on resources: it has the highest per-student spending at $23,063 and a student-teacher ratio of 10.7, matching Quashnet. Mashpee Middle-High has the lowest ratio at 9.6, while Quashnet spends the least at $20,899. The biggest red flags are middle-school math and ELA at Mashpee Middle-High and Quashnet's volatile science results, which fell from 49.5% in 2024–2025 to 36.89% in 2025–2026.
