Summary

Dr. Janice Adie Day School is a small alternative public school serving grades PK-12 in Lowell, MA, a district ranked 302 out of 351 in the state. With just 55 students, the school has a very low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 4.2 to 4.5 students per teacher over the past 3 years. However, the school's academic performance is a major concern, with 0% of students proficient or better on the MCAS Next Generation assessments in English Language Arts, Math, and Science - significantly lower than the Lowell district and the state of Massachusetts.

Despite spending a relatively high amount per student, ranging from $35,330 to $40,854 over the past 3 years, the school is not seeing commensurate academic outcomes. Compared to nearby alternative schools, Dr. Janice Adie Day School's performance lags behind, with Horace Mann School for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing also struggling with low proficiency rates, while Prospect Hill Academy Charter School significantly outperforms the state averages.

The small size of the school and its diverse student population, with 32-37% white students, 12-18% African American students, 25-31% Hispanic students, and 14-18% Asian students over the past 3 years, may present unique challenges. Addressing the root causes of the low academic achievement should be a top priority for the school and Lowell district.
