Summary

Florence Roche School is a K–4 public elementary school in Groton, Massachusetts, serving 615 students as part of the Groton-Dunstable district. It ranks 151st of 899 Massachusetts elementary schools in 2025–2026 — the 83rd percentile, with 4 stars — while its district ranks 34th of 351 statewide (90th percentile, 5 stars). In 2025–2026 MCAS Next Generation testing, the school scored 55.78% proficient in English Language Arts and 64.68% in Mathematics at the All Grades level, above the state's 40.03% and 41.11% and above district averages of 53.56% and 59.29%. Math is the clearest strength, about 23.6 points above the state.

Among nearby elementary schools with test data, only Swallow/Union School, its same-district peer, ranks higher. Florence Roche comes in ahead of Russell St Elementary, John A. Crisafulli Elementary School, Day Elementary, Page Hilltop Elementary School, Turkey Hill Elementary School, Varnum Brook, and Lura A. White Elementary School. It is the largest school in that group at 615 students, yet it outperforms much of it. Its 2024–2025 student-teacher ratio is 13.9, and 2020–2021 per-student spending was $17,495 — moderate within the comparison set. After a dip in 2023–2024 (66th percentile, 3 stars), the school returned to 81st and then 83rd percentile.

A few patterns are worth watching. Even though the school's overall scores beat the district, all four grade-level results — 3rd and 4th grade ELA and Math — trail district averages. Subgroup results are mostly improving, but the low-socioeconomic-status subgroup dropped from the 79th percentile in 2024–2025 to the 45th percentile (2 stars) in 2025–2026, an important equity signal. Male students rank in the 90th percentile versus 74th for female students. Free/reduced lunch percentages were not available, and because the school serves K–4, grade-5 MCAS Science results are not comparable here. Overall, Florence Roche is a high-performing school in the top 17% of the state.
