Worthington

Worthington has one public school, R. H. Conwell, an elementary school serving grades PK–6 with 76 students at 147 Huntington Road, Worthington, MA 01098. It is the only school in the Worthington district, so school and district results are the same. The district is ranked 347 out of 351 in Massachusetts, at the 1st percentile with 0 stars. There are no middle, high, or alternative schools in the area summary, so outcomes after grade 6 are not shown.

R. H. Conwell's state rank declined from 674 of 928 (27th percentile, 1 star) in 2022–2023 to 837 of 906 (8th percentile, 0 stars) in 2024–2025 and 845 of 899 (6th percentile, 0 stars) in 2025–2026. In 2025–2026 MCAS, all-grade ELA was 30.77% proficient versus the state's 40.03%; all-grade math was 15.38% versus 41.11%; 3rd-grade math was 0% versus 42.19%; 6th-grade math was 7.14% versus 42.59%. In 2024–2025, ELA was 33.33% versus 41.53%, math 21.21% versus 40.74%, and science 15.38% versus 41.51%. Every reported proficiency score is below the state average.

Math is the clearest weakness: all-grade math fell from 21.21% to 15.38%, while the state rose from 40.74% to 41.11%, widening the gap from 19.53 to 25.73 points. ELA is comparatively stronger but still below state and declined slightly, from 33.33% to 30.77%; the gap widened from 8.20 to 9.26 points. Science was 15.38% versus 41.51% in 2024–2025. The student-teacher ratio is 10.1, and per-student spending is $17,070 from 2020–2021. Free/reduced lunch data is unknown for 2024–2025. With only 76 students, grade-level percentages can swing sharply from small cohort changes, so 0% in 3rd-grade math and 7.14% in 6th-grade math should be read with that volatility in mind.
