Summary

Clifford M Granger is a K–4 elementary school serving 361 students in Feeding Hills, part of Agawam, Massachusetts, within the Agawam public school district. In 2025–26 it ranked 337 of 899 schools (63rd percentile, 3 stars), a sharp jump from 568 of 906 (37th percentile, 2 stars) the year before, and its 2025–26 MCAS Next Generation results — 46.72% proficient in ELA and 49.64% in math — were above both the district (34.41% ELA, 36.12% math) and the state (40.03% ELA, 41.11% math). A year earlier the school sat below state in both subjects (36.00% ELA, 37.33% math), so the turnaround is notable.

Compared with other Agawam K–4 schools, Granger is the leader in this group. It posts the highest ELA proficiency of the nearby Agawam schools and the highest math among them, ahead of Benjamin J Phelps, William P. Sapelli Elementary, and James Clark School. Against nearby schools outside the district, Granger has the highest ELA proficiency and the second-highest math, behind Tatham. It also outranks Powder Mill School, Mittineague, Philip G Coburn, Munger Hill, and Memorial. Woodland School serves PK–2 and has no comparable recent data.

Grade 3 is the engine of the current strength: 59.62% proficient in math and 51.92% in ELA, far above district and state. Grade 4 is more mixed, with math at 43.53% — about the state level and behind Phelps. The clearest equity strength is effectiveness with low-income students, ranked in the 86th percentile (4 stars) in 2025–26, up from 73rd and 47th in prior years. Special education remains the main concern, at the 19th percentile in 2024–25 after 5th percentile in the two years before. Granger spends $19,861 per student (2020–21) with a 15.2 student-teacher ratio in 2024–25 — high spending alongside a relatively high ratio.
