Summary:
There is one elementary school in the Farmington River Regional district: Farmington River Elementary in Otis, MA, serving grades PK–6 with 124 students. Because it is the only elementary school in the district, the district-level MCAS results mirror the school's exactly, so the district's rank of 164 of 351 — the 53rd percentile with 3 stars — is simply a restatement of the school's standing rather than an independent comparison.
On the 2025-2026 MCAS, Farmington River Elementary scored above the state in English Language Arts (48.21 versus 40.03) and mathematics (47.37 versus 41.11), but below the state in science (33.33 versus 40.98). Upper-elementary ELA is the standout: grade 6 ELA was 61.54 against a state figure of 40.26, grade 5 ELA was 53.33 versus 38.15, and grade 4 ELA was 50 versus 37.43. Grade 3 ELA was the weakest result at 31.25 versus 42.79. In mathematics, grade 5 (53.33 versus 39.50) and grade 3 (50 versus 42.19) were above the state, grade 6 was modestly above (46.15 versus 42.59), and grade 4 was slightly below (38.46 versus 43.20) — a mixed picture overall.
The clearest headline is improvement: the school rose from 482nd of 906 in 2024-2025 to 367th of 899 in 2025-2026, moving from the 47th to the 59th percentile and from 2 stars to 3 stars after two relatively flat years. Its student-teacher ratio of 9.3 for 2024-2025 looks low, though the data offers no state or peer comparison. Per-student spending of $31,204 dates from 2020-2021, and the free/reduced lunch percentage is unavailable, so both figures lack current context. With only 124 students, grade-level percentages rest on small groups and can shift sharply from year to year.
