Summary

Hawlemont Regional is a PK–6 elementary school at 10 School Street in Charlemont, MA, serving 71 students as the only school in the Hawlemont district — which means school and district figures are one and the same, with no other buildings averaged in.

The defining story is a sharp turnaround. In 2021–22 the school ranked at the 7th percentile of Massachusetts elementary schools; by 2023–24 it reached the 50th, settling in the low 40s since (40th in 2025–26). In 2025–26, English language arts proficiency was 38.9% — just 1.1 points below the state's 40.03% and third-best of eleven nearby schools. Science (40.0%) sits right at the state line and is a relative strength; in 2024–25 the school posted 60%. Math is the persistent weak spot: 27.8% in 2025–26, 14.5 points below the state, and math has trailed the state by 13 to 32 points in every year on record — though the current 13.3-point gap is the narrowest yet.

Class sizes are small — 7.7 students per teacher, third-lowest among the eleven nearby schools — while per-pupil spending ($20,677) is also third-lowest. Conway Grammar, a similar small rural PK–6 school with a nearly identical 7.8:1 ratio but roughly $5,000 more per pupil, scores 58.6/59.7/58.8 and ranks at the 79th percentile; Sanderson Academy (61st) and Colrain Central (41st) also rank ahead, while Hawlemont sits above Buckland-Shelburne Regional, Clarksburg Elementary, Colegrove Park Elementary, and Abbott Memorial. Keep in mind that with roughly 35–40 students in tested grades, one student can shift a school-wide result by about 5.5 points. Free/reduced-lunch data is suppressed by the state for every year reported, so the school's economic context is unknown, and subgroup results have not been re-measured since 2022–23 — the improvement is verified only for the school as a whole.
