North Andover

Summary:

The North Andover school district in Massachusetts consists of 8 schools, including 6 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. The district is home to several standout schools, with Kittredge Elementary, North Andover Middle, and North Andover High consistently performing above the district and state averages on MCAS test scores.

Kittredge Elementary stands out as a top performer, with over 50% of students proficient or better in English Language Arts, Math, and Science across all grade levels. The school also has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger, placing it among the best elementary schools in the state. Similarly, North Andover High School boasts a strong 98% 4-year graduation rate and a low 0.6% dropout rate, while also exceeding district and state averages on MCAS tests.

While some schools in the district, such as North Andover Middle and Franklin Elementary, also demonstrate high academic performance, there is variation in the elementary school results. For example, Atkinson Elementary struggles with significantly lower MCAS proficiency rates compared to the district and state. The data does not show a clear correlation between spending per student and academic outcomes, suggesting that other factors may be at play in determining school performance across the North Andover district.
