Rogers STEM Academy has consistently ranked in the bottom quartile of Massachusetts elementary schools, maintaining a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger over the past 8 years. The school struggles across various student subgroups, ranking in the bottom 15-20% for Asian, White, and Special Education students, and in the bottom 25-50% for Hispanic, African American, and English Language Learner students. Proficiency rates at Rogers STEM Academy are significantly lower than the Lowell district and the state of Massachusetts in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science, with the performance gaps widening over time.

While Rogers STEM Academy faces significant challenges, there are some interesting findings. Its homeless student population performs relatively well, ranking in the top 25% of schools in Massachusetts. Additionally, nearby Moody Elementary and Abraham Lincoln schools in the Lowell district perform significantly better than Rogers STEM Academy, suggesting the issues at the school may not be solely due to district-level factors. These findings indicate there may be opportunities to improve the school's overall academic outcomes through targeted interventions and the implementation of best practices from higher-performing schools.
