Better than 21% of Massachusetts elementary schools

Summary

A K–5 school in Framingham, MA serving 540 students, Potter Road is the largest of the Framingham elementary schools in this comparison set. The district backdrop matters most: Framingham ranks 310th of 351 Massachusetts districts (12th percentile, 1 star), and Potter Road itself sits 713th of 899 elementary schools (21st percentile, 1 star) for 2025–2026, with all-grades proficiency of 25.65% ELA, 22.32% math, and 32.05% science — above district averages of 24.25% / 21.23% / 26.97% but below state figures of 40.03% / 41.11% / 40.98%. The long view is the real story: the school fell from the 51st percentile in 2015–2016 to the 18th–25th percentile band in each of the last four reported years, losing roughly 30 percentile points and settling onto a lower plateau rather than rebounding.

Within Framingham, Potter Road is mid-pack at 4th of 7 — Hemenway, King Elementary School, and Charlotte A Dunning outrank it, while Mary E Stapleton Elementary, Brophy, and Miriam F McCarthy School trail it. Science is the clear bright spot: Potter Road beats the district there in every reported year and comes within about 9 points of the state, versus 14 points in ELA and 19 in math, where 22.32% is only about 54% of the state rate. Fifth-grade math is the low point at 19.23%, against a 39.5% state figure.

The starkest contrast is geographic. Israel Loring School in Sudbury is 0.95 miles away and posts 61.97% ELA and 65.42% math — roughly 36 and 43 points higher. Resources do not explain the gap: Potter Road has the lowest per-student spending in its Framingham group ($17,846) yet outperforms higher-spending peers. Subgroup results show an unusual inversion — English Language Learners rank at the 41st percentile and Special Education Students in the low 30s, both above the school's overall 21st percentile, while Low Socio-Economic Status Students are the weakest reported group at 9th percentile with 0 stars.
