Summary

Litwin is a grades 2–5 elementary school at 135 Litwin Lane in Chicopee, MA, serving 343 students within the Chicopee district, which ranks 283rd of 351 Massachusetts districts.

In 2025–26, Litwin’s MCAS proficiency was 35.4% in English language arts, 34.2% in math, and 38.1% in science. That is above its district in every subject (27.2%, 27.3%, and 34.0%) but still below Massachusetts (40.0%, 41.1%, and 41.0%). Its statewide percentile climbed to 38th, its best showing since 2016–17, up from 29th the year before. Among nearby schools, Litwin beats Streiber Memorial School in all three subjects and trails only Bowie within its district. It also leads Harris Brook Elementary School by 13.3 points in ELA, 6.7 in math, and 17.8 in science. However, Springfield Preparatory Charter School and Warner post stronger results. The clearest academic soft spot is fifth-grade math, where Litwin’s 27.4% falls below its own district (28.4%) and 12.1 points under the state, while science is its relative strength.

Litwin spends $17,050 per student (2020–21), the second-lowest amount among its peer group, and its student–teacher ratio has risen for three years to 12.1. Still, it outperforms higher-spending Samuel Bowles and Thomas M Balliet. Student-group results differ: low-income students rank at the 72nd percentile with 4 stars, while special education students rank at the 21st percentile with 1 star. That gap is worth watching. Families should know Litwin is a district overperformer that remains a state underperformer, with real recent improvement and a few areas—especially upper-grade math and special education—still needing attention.
