Summary

Egremont is a PK–5 elementary school at 84 Egremont Avenue in Pittsfield, Massachusetts — a city in the Berkshires — serving 376 students as one of the larger elementary schools in the Pittsfield district. The district overall ranks near the bottom of Massachusetts (287th of 351, 18th percentile), yet Egremont itself ranks 354th of 899 elementary schools statewide — the 61st percentile, 3 of 5 stars, for 2025-2026. That is roughly a 43-percentile-point gap between school and district.

Science is the school's signature strength by a wide margin. In 2025-2026, 69.39% of Egremont students were proficient in science — about 28 points above the state and 47 points above its own district. That is nearly 20 points higher than the next-best school around, Williams (50.00), and well ahead of higher-ranked schools such as Lanesborough Elementary (31.03). Egremont's subject pattern is unusual for an elementary school: science leads, followed by math (45.95) and English language arts (43.01). Those ELA and math results sit only modestly above state averages, and Egremont still beat nearby Pittsfield schools in science, including Robert T. Capeless Elementary School (36.84) and Stearns (40.74).

Egremont spent most of the past decade in the 41st–56th percentile, so the last two years are a clear step up: 2025-2026 is the second-highest result in the ten-year record, even after slipping from 2024-2025's 72nd percentile. That dip is mostly a math story — math fell 12.5 points while science improved. Performance is also consistent across grade levels, unlike Morningside Community School, which has the same 376 students but ranks at the 7th percentile, or Silvio O Conte Community at the 1st. Notably, Egremont's low-income students rank at the 82nd percentile, above the school's own 61st, while special education students sit near the middle at the 47th. Egremont also has the second-lowest per-pupil spending among Pittsfield elementaries ($17,790) and the highest student-teacher ratio (12.6), yet the second-best results — though spending figures are several years old.
