Summary

Fletcher/Maynard Academy is a small PK–5 elementary school in Cambridge, MA, serving 249 students — the smallest enrollment among its nearby Cambridge peers — and it sits inside the Cambridge district, one of the strongest in Massachusetts (71st of 351 districts). For 2025–2026 the school itself ranks 450th of 899 Massachusetts schools, or the 50th percentile with 3 stars.

On 2025–2026 MCAS Next Generation tests, Fletcher/Maynard's all-grade proficiency is 39.36% in English Language Arts, 44.09% in math, and 41.18% in science. That is close to state averages (40.03% ELA, 41.11% math, 40.98% science), but well below Cambridge's district averages of 59.47% ELA, 57.29% math, and 51.03% science. In fact, it posts the lowest proficiency in all three subjects among nearby Cambridge schools such as Amigos School, Martin Luther King Junior, Morse, Cambridgeport, King Open, and John M Tobin. Against Somerville schools, the picture is brighter: Fletcher/Maynard outperforms Winter Hill Community and E Somerville Community in all three subjects, and beats Albert F. Argenziano School at Lincoln Park in math. Improvement has been rapid: the school climbed from the 29th percentile in 2023–2024 to the 50th in 2025–2026, with science gaining 15.37 points over two years.

Two patterns stand out for parents. Subgroup effectiveness is strong — African American students rank in the top 7% statewide (13th of 188, 5 stars) and low-income students rank at the 78th percentile — even though the school's overall rank sits at the middle. Grade-level results are also stronger earlier on: 3rd grade ELA is 44.83%, 4th grade 38.71%, and 5th grade 35.29%. Resources are unusually generous, with 7.3 students per teacher (the lowest in the comparison set) and $40,576 per student in 2020–2021 (the highest), though free/reduced-lunch data were not available.
