Summary

Richardson Olmsted School is a public elementary school in North Easton, Massachusetts, serving grades 3 through 5 to roughly 755 students as part of the Easton school district, which ranks in the top quarter of Massachusetts districts.

On the 2025–2026 MCAS, proficiency was above the state average in all three tested subjects but below the Easton district average in all three: ELA 46.74% (state 40.03%), mathematics 54.94% (state 41.11%), and science 53.33% (state 40.98%). Mathematics and science are relative strengths — math is 13.83 points above the state, and grade 4 math stands out at 61.85% proficient — while ELA trails the district by the widest margin. Among nearby schools, East Elementary in Sharon is the clear academic standout, and Mabelle M. Burrell in Foxborough also posts higher ELA and math results. Richardson Olmsted is far ahead of the Brockton schools shown, such as Dr W Arnone Community School and Hancock, where math proficiency sits near 9–10%, and generally ahead of the Stoughton and West Bridgewater schools compared.

Recent years show some softening: the school's rank percentile slipped from 76 in 2023–2024 to 69 in 2025–2026, and proficiency declined in all three subjects, though all remain above state averages. Subgroup results are uneven — English Language Learner students rank in the 89th percentile statewide, while special education and low-income rankings have fallen from high levels to mid-range. Class size is 13.7 students per teacher, and per-student spending was $14,520 in 2020–2021, lower than most nearby schools yet paired with above-state outcomes. Notably, free/reduced-price lunch data were not available, so socioeconomic context cannot be assessed from this information.
