Summary:

There are nine elementary schools in Pittsfield, Massachusetts, most serving grades PK–5 (Crosby Educational Academy serves K–5), enrolling 2,304 students in total, with the typical school around 249–256 students. All nine are part of the Pittsfield district, which ranks 287th of 351 districts statewide — the 18th percentile — with 1 star, and district proficiency trails the state in ELA, Math, and Science in both 2025–2026 and 2024–2025.

Performance varies widely between schools. Williams leads the group, ranking 271st of 899 schools (70th percentile, 3 stars) with 53.92% ELA, 51.49% Math, and 50% Science. Egremont ranks 354th of 899 (61st percentile, 3 stars) and posts the highest single subject score in the data set — 69.39% in Science, far above the state's 40.98% — while also beating state averages in ELA and Math. Robert T. Capeless Elementary School is the biggest improver, climbing from 503rd of 906 to 314th of 899 (65th percentile, 3 stars), with ELA at 50% and Math at 52.56%. At the low end, Silvio O Conte Community ranks 888th of 899 (1st percentile, 0 stars), with proficiency below 10% in every subject, and Morningside Community School ranks 832nd of 899 (7th percentile, 0 stars). Crosby ranks 738th of 899 with 1 star but improved year over year.

Science is a relative strength at Egremont and Stearns, but a weakness at Capeless and Silvio O Conte. Resources do not track neatly with results: Williams and Egremont produce strong outcomes with mid-range spending and higher student-teacher ratios, while Stearns has the lowest regular-program ratio (6.9) but below-state ELA and Math. Crosby Educational Academy is a small-enrollment outlier — 24 students, 0% ELA and 8.33% Math, $50,584 per student, and a 3.4 ratio — so its figures should be read with caution. Free/reduced lunch data is blank for every school, spending figures date to 2020–2021, and Science results cover 5th grade only.
