Summary

Silver Hill Elementary School is a K–4 school in Haverhill, Massachusetts, a Merrimack Valley city north of Boston, serving 481 students within the Haverhill district — which ranks 294th of 351 districts statewide, at the 16th percentile with 1 star. The school's own 2025–2026 rank is 715th of 899, at the 20th percentile with 1 star. That is a marked slide: Silver Hill was at the 39th percentile in 2022–2023 and held 2 stars from 2018–2019 through 2023–2024 before dropping to 1 star in 2024–2025 and staying there.

On 2025–2026 MCAS tests, 23.11% of Silver Hill students met expectations in ELA and 28.77% in math — slightly below the Haverhill district (26.49% ELA, 29.27% math) and far below the state (40.03% ELA, 41.11% math). Fourth-grade math is the relative bright spot at 36.11%, just above the district's 34.96% but still under the state's 43.20%. Third-grade math is the clearest weakness at 21.15%, 14 points below the district and 21 points below the state. In subgroup effectiveness, special education students rank at the 10th percentile statewide — the school's lowest result. The school's ranking for English language learners fell from the 79th percentile in 2023–2024 to the 40th in 2025–2026, and rankings for low-income students and Hispanic students also declined.

Nearby schools offer a yardstick. Bradford Elementary, 1.8 miles away, sits at the 46th percentile with 2 stars and much higher proficiency (35.71% ELA, 45.36% math); Caleb Dustin Hunking School (42nd), Golden Hill (35th), and Walnut Square also outperform Silver Hill. Its closest peers are Pentucket Lake Elementary and Tilton, both 1 star. Silver Hill does top Edward F. Parthum (9th percentile) and Hill View Montessori Charter Public School (11th). Its student-teacher ratio was 11.2 in 2024–2025, moderate locally, and per-student spending was $15,333 in 2020–2021 — below most nearby Haverhill schools, though the data shows no simple spending-to-results link. Free/reduced lunch figures were unavailable, spending data ends in 2020–2021, and no test scores were suppressed.
