Summary

Narragansett Regional High is a public high school located in Baldwinville, Massachusetts, serving grades 8-12 with a total enrollment of 475 students. The school is part of the Narragansett District, which is ranked 261 out of 348 districts in Massachusetts and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Narragansett Regional High has seen fluctuations in its statewide ranking over the past 10 years, ranging from 143 to 290 out of Massachusetts high schools, and its SchoolDigger rating has also varied, ranging from 1 to 3 stars out of 5. In comparison, nearby schools like Fitchburg High, Quabbin Regional High School, and Oakmont Regional High School have generally maintained lower rankings and 1-3 star ratings. The school's performance has been inconsistent across various metrics, with the school ranking and rating fluctuating over the years, suggesting a need for more consistent and targeted improvement efforts.

Narragansett Regional High's performance disparities among different student subgroups, particularly for White students and students with disabilities, indicate potential equity issues that need to be addressed. The school's MCAS proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science are generally below the state averages, with some exceptions. In contrast, nearby schools like Montachusett Regional Vocational Technical and Oakmont Regional High School have consistently outperformed Narragansett on MCAS assessments. Addressing these performance challenges through targeted interventions and resource allocation could help the school achieve more consistent and equitable success.
