Rowe

Rowe, Massachusetts is served by a single public school: Rowe Elementary, an elementary school in the Rowe district that serves grades PK–6 with 54 students enrolled. Because the district has only one school, parents cannot compare Rowe schools against one another; the meaningful comparisons are against state averages and against the school's own prior years.

Rowe Elementary's recent history shows strong improvement. In 2021–2022 it ranked 905th of 932 schools — the 3rd percentile, with 0 stars. By 2022–2023 it had climbed to the 22nd percentile (1 star), and in 2024–2025 it reached 351st of 906, the 61st percentile, earning 3 stars. Test results matched that rise: in 2024–2025 the school exceeded the state in English Language Arts (42.86% proficient versus 41.53%), Mathematics (42.86% versus 40.74%), and especially Science (58.33% versus 41.51%, a gap of +16.82 percentage points). No 2023–2024 rank is recorded in this data set.

The newest results for 2025–2026 are mixed. All-grade ELA fell to 23.53% proficient against the state's 40.03%, and all-grade Mathematics to 26.47% against 41.11%. Sixth grade ELA, however, reached 41.67% — slightly above the state's 40.26% — while 6th grade Math was 33.33% versus 42.59%. With only 54 students, a few students changing categories can move these rates sharply, so swings should be read cautiously. The school reported a 5.5:1 student-teacher ratio in 2024–2025 and $28,842 per-student spending in 2020–2021; free/reduced lunch data was not reported, and the spending figure is several years older than the test scores.
