Summary:
The Richmond area has one public school, Richmond Consolidated, in the Richmond district. It is classified as elementary but serves grades PK–8, covering early and middle grades; no separate middle, high, or alternative schools are listed. Enrollment is 157, the student-teacher ratio is 9 (2024–25), and per-student spending is $23,771 (2020–21). Free/reduced lunch is blank/unknown. The school ranks 310 of 899, 66th percentile, 3 stars in 2025–26; the district ranks 165 of 351, 53rd percentile, 3 stars. School rank has been stable around the 65th–67th percentile from 2023–24 through 2025–26, with 3 stars each year. Small cohorts mean grade-level percentages can shift with just a few students.
Overall, 2025–26 MCAS Next Generation results are above state in core subjects: all-grades ELA 51.55 vs 40.03, math 47.47 vs 41.11, and science 51.72 vs 40.98. Early grades are a strength: grade 4 ELA 73.68 vs 37.43 and math 78.95 vs 43.20; grade 3 ELA 64.29 vs 42.79 and math 66.67 vs 42.19. Grade 7 ELA 62.50 vs 39.91 and math 47.06 vs 37.48; grade 5 science 63.16 vs 43.07. From 2024–25 to 2025–26, math improved from 41.24 to 47.47, while ELA fell from 59.18 to 51.55 and science fell from 56.67 to 51.72, though both remain above state. Civics is the exception: 8th grade civics 30.00 vs 39.77.
Middle-grade results are uneven. Grade 6 math is 15.79 vs 42.59, a major gap, and grade 6 ELA is 31.58 vs 40.26. Grade 5 ELA is 36.84 vs 38.15, slightly below state, while grade 5 math is 42.11 vs 39.50, slightly above. Grade 8 is a weak spot: math, science, and civics are all 30.00, each below state, and ELA is 40.00 vs 41.70, slightly below. Civics was also below state in 2024–25 at 30.77 vs 39.16 and remained below in 2025–26. All reported MCAS values appear exact, with no test-score suppression noted. Overall, this is a small, relatively well-resourced PK–8 school that performs above state in ELA, math, and science, with standout early-grade results, but it faces concentrated challenges in middle-grade math, 8th grade subjects, and civics.
