Summary

George R Austin Intermediate School is a public elementary school located in Lakeville, Massachusetts, serving 464 students in grades 4-5 as part of the Freetown-Lakeville school district, which is ranked 126 out of 348 districts in the state.

The school's academic performance is generally on par with or slightly below the district and state averages in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science on the MCAS Next Generation assessments. However, the school stands out for its strong performance among Hispanic students, consistently ranking in the top 5-10% of Massachusetts elementary schools for this subgroup. In contrast, the school's outcomes for special education and low socioeconomic status (SES) students have been more variable, with the school ranking in the top 20-35% of schools in some years but dropping to the bottom 50% in others.

Compared to nearby schools, George R Austin Intermediate School performs similarly to or slightly below other schools in the Freetown-Lakeville district, but outperforms some schools in neighboring districts, such as Mary K. Goode Elementary School in Middleborough and Elwyn G. Campbell Elementary School in New Bedford. While the school's strengths in serving its Hispanic student population are notable, there may be opportunities to improve outcomes for other subgroups, such as special education and low SES students, to ensure more equitable educational experiences for all students.
