Summary

Manthala George Junior School is a PK–5 elementary school in Brockton, MA, serving 838 students, in a district that faces significant challenges. The Brockton district ranks 329th of 351 districts statewide, at the 6th percentile with 0 stars, and the school is in the bottom tier but has improved: in 2025–2026 it ranked 748th of 899 elementary schools, at the 17th percentile with 1 star, up from the 1st–3rd percentile in earlier years. It has plateaued in the bottom fifth of Massachusetts elementary schools rather than continuing to climb.

In 2025–2026 MCAS results, ELA proficiency was 26.73%, above the Brockton district average of 20.08% but below the state’s 40.03%. Math was 18.42%, slightly below the district’s 19.05% and far below the state’s 41.11%, and science was 23.81%, above the district’s 17.61% but below the state’s 40.98%. Math is the clearest weak point and declined from 22.43% in 2023–2024 to 18.42% in 2025–2026. Nearby comparisons help: Oscar F Raymond, 0.68 miles away, is at the 3rd percentile with much lower ELA (12.71%), math (7.31%), and science (12.21%). Louis F Angelo Elementary, 1.03 miles away, is at the 31st percentile and outperforms the school in math (31.55%) and science (34.97%) with a lower student–teacher ratio (16.1) and slightly higher per-student spending ($16,681 vs. $15,861). South Elementary in Stoughton is at the 59th percentile with 50.70% math, and Ralph D Butler in Avon is at the 31st percentile with a much lower ratio of 10.2. The school has the highest student–teacher ratio (18.0) and lowest per-student spending ($15,861) in this comparison set.

Subgroup results are uneven: English Language Learner students ranked at the 23rd percentile in 2025–2026, down from 64th, low-income students at the 32nd percentile, and special education students at the 21st. These measures describe how well the school serves specific groups, not the students themselves. Data limits matter: free/reduced-lunch percentages are unavailable, per-student spending is only available through 2020–2021, and some subgroup data are older. The strongest current picture comes from 2025–2026 MCAS, recent rank history, enrollment, student–teacher ratio, and spending.
