Summary

Learning First Charter Public School is a K–8 charter school in Worcester, MA, serving 666 students as its own district, Learning First Charter Public School (District). In 2025–2026, the district ranked 312th of 351 Massachusetts districts (11th percentile, 1 star), and the school ranked 856th of 899 elementary schools (5th percentile, 0 stars). Its rank history shows long-term bottom-decile performance, with a brief rise to the 12th percentile in 2020–2021.

Compared with nearby schools, the school has the largest enrollment and a much higher student-teacher ratio: 19:1 in 2024–2025, versus nearby ratios of about 11.4:1 to 15.2:1. All-grade proficiency is low in English language arts (17.43% vs. 40.03% statewide) and math (18.85% vs. 41.11%), but science is a relative strength at 31.65% (vs. 40.98% statewide), higher than most nearby schools and second only to Jacob Hiatt Magnet at 39.29%. In ELA and math, the school outperforms some nearby schools, including Grafton Street, Vernon Hill School, Worcester Cultural Academy Charter Public School, Woodland Academy, and City View, but trails Jacob Hiatt Magnet and Canterbury.

Grade-level results are uneven. Grade 8 is the clearest bright spot: science proficiency was 55.07% vs. 38.93% statewide and civics was 47.83% vs. 39.77% statewide, while Grade 8 ELA and math were closer to state averages. However, Grade 4 math (8% vs. 43.2%), Grade 5 ELA (9.72% vs. 38.15%), and Grade 5 science (8.57% vs. 43.07%) are far below state levels. Math and science have improved since 2023–2024, but ELA slipped in the latest year. Support for some student groups, such as low-income, special education, and English learner students, remains a concern. Spending was $15,381 per student in 2020–2021, mid-to-low among nearby schools, and free/reduced lunch data was not available.

Thursday, July 14, 2022

I found out that my son's 3rd grade teacher is not even licensed. The classrooms are really small, and the building is not suited for a school. I went in to visit my son's teacher and had to use the unisex bathroom. It was disgusting and smelled like urine. I have since moved my son to another school for 4th grade. Not sure how they are allowed to still teach with such low academic scores year after year Close Quote

Learning First has gone through many changes in the last several years which have led to improved performance. They have a reputation for a teaching staff that goes above and beyond for their students and did an amazing job with remote learning during covid, especially in comparison to the other local public schools Close Quote
