Summary

Hill-Roberts Elementary School is a K–4 elementary school in Attleboro, MA, with 412 students, part of the Attleboro district. For 2025–2026 it ranks 464th of 899 Massachusetts elementary schools — the 48th percentile with 2 stars — a step down from the prior two years, when it placed in the 56th–59th percentile with 3 stars. Over the longer term the school has improved considerably from the late 2010s, when it ranked in the 29th–35th percentile, so this looks like a recent dip rather than a return to its old lows.

In 2025–2026 MCAS Next Generation results, Hill-Roberts scored 43.03% proficient in ELA and 38.79% proficient in math. That places it above the district in both subjects and above the state in ELA (40.03%), but below the state in math (41.11%). Grade-level results show a clear split: 3rd-grade math (47.22%) and 3rd-grade ELA (48.61%) are above both district and state, while 4th-grade math (32.26%) is about 6 points below the district and nearly 11 points below the state. Within Attleboro, Hyman Fine Elementary School outranks Hill-Roberts and scores higher in both subjects, and A. Irvin Studley Elementary School is very close. Among nearby out-of-district schools, Falls, Roosevelt Avenue, Mildred Aitken School, Amvet Boulevard, and Joseph W Martin Junior Elementary all rank higher, while Community ranks lower.

Subgroup results are mixed. English learner and low-income students have ranked well above the school’s overall percentile in recent years, and Hispanic students placed in the 67th percentile in 2025–2026. The sharpest concern is special education students, who ranked in the 13th percentile in 2025–2026 (1 star), far below their 71st–82nd percentile results in 2021–2022 and 2022–2023. Hill-Roberts spent $13,894 per student in 2020–2021 and had a student-teacher ratio of 13.7 in 2024–2025.

Open Quote Horrible school!! They have a large room with four classes separated by cheap foldable walls, the children cannot concentrate. The Principal "Scott Johnson" has communication issues, I hope he is not at the school next year. He also treats "SOME" children different from others, I could go on and on about this school.......
