Summary

Morris is a PK–5 elementary school in Lenox, MA, serving 332 students in the Berkshires as part of the Lenox district. The district ranks 48th of 351 Massachusetts districts (86th percentile, 4 stars), and Morris ranked 221st of 899 elementary schools in 2025–2026 (75th percentile, 4 stars). Its rank history is stable: 4 stars most years since 2015–2016, a 5-star year in 2016–2017, and a recent high of 84th percentile in 2023–2024. In 2025–2026, all-grade MCAS Next Generation proficiency was 55.9% ELA, 56.17% math, and 52.63% science, all above state averages.

Compared with nearby schools, Morris is a top performer. Its 2025–2026 rank percentile was above Williams (70th), Richmond Consolidated (66th), Muddy Brook Regional Elementary School (64th), Egremont (61st), Lee Elementary (52nd), Stearns (24th), Crosby (18th), Morningside Community School (7th), and Silvio O Conte Community (1st). Morris also had the highest all-grade ELA and math proficiency in this comparison set; its science score was above state but behind Egremont and Lee Elementary. Resources do not fully explain the results: Morris spent $20,924 per student in 2020–2021, mid-range locally, and its student-teacher ratio improved to 10.7 in 2024–2025. It outperformed Muddy Brook Regional Elementary School in ELA and math even though that school spends more, while Crosby Educational Academy spends far more but serves a very small enrollment and reported very low proficiency.

ELA and math are relative strengths, while science is more variable: science proficiency fell from 68.97% in 2023–2024 to 50.91% in 2024–2025 before rebounding to 52.63% in 2025–2026. At tested grades, Morris generally matched or exceeded the Lenox district, with only grade 3 ELA slightly below. When results are broken out by group, the school’s rankings have been stronger for female students and low-income students than for male students in recent data; male students earned 3 stars in 2025–2026 and 2024–2025, and the male-female gap was 11 percentile points in 2025–2026. The main watch points are the recent softening in ELA/math rank, the relative science dip, and the male subgroup gap, even as overall performance remains well above state averages and most nearby schools.
