Summary

New Hingham Regional Elementary is a public elementary school in Chesterfield, MA, serving 139 students in grades PK-6 as part of the Chesterfield-Goshen District. The school has shown mixed performance on MCAS assessments, with some grade levels performing well above the state average and others significantly below. While the school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio and higher-than-average spending per student, it faces challenges in providing consistent, high-quality instruction across all grade levels.

New Hingham Regional Elementary's proficiency rates in 4th and 5th grade ELA and Math were higher than the state averages, but the school struggled in 3rd grade ELA and 6th grade Math. The school has performed well for female students and special education students, ranking in the top 25% of Massachusetts elementary schools in recent years. However, the performance for white students and male students has been below average, indicating potential equity concerns that need to be addressed.

Compared to nearby schools like Conway Grammar and Anne T. Dunphy School, New Hingham Regional Elementary generally performs in the middle to lower range on MCAS assessments. This suggests that the school could learn from the practices and strategies of higher-performing nearby schools to improve student outcomes and address the inconsistencies in its academic performance.
