Summary

Silvio O Conte Community is a PK–5 elementary school in the Pittsfield area of Massachusetts, serving 379 students in the Pittsfield district, which ranks 287th of 351 districts statewide (18th percentile, 1 star). In 2025–2026, the school ranked 888th of 899 Massachusetts elementary schools (1st percentile, 0 stars), making it the lowest-ranked regular elementary school among the nearby peers shown here. Its rank history has trended downward, from 726th of 932 (22nd percentile) in 2015–2016 to this bottom-1% position.

Proficiency is extremely low across all subjects. In 2025–2026, all-grades ELA was 5.66%, math 9.55%, and science 7.27%, versus district rates of 25.30%, 21.49%, and 22.51% in Pittsfield, and state rates near 40–41%. Grade 5 is especially weak: 1.75% ELA, 3.57% math, and 7.27% science. No grade-level subject exceeds 16% proficiency. ELA also dropped sharply from 15.44% in 2024–2025. Nearby schools score higher: Morningside Community School had 17.86% ELA, 13.10% math, and 20.00% science; Williams had 53.92% ELA, 51.49% math, and 50.00% science. Lanesborough Elementary and Craneville also outperformed the school.

Subgroup rankings are broadly bottom-tier: in 2025–2026, every reported subgroup ranked in the bottom 8% statewide, suggesting a school-wide instructional pattern rather than a challenge limited to one population. Low-SES subgroup effectiveness ranked in the bottom 4th percentile; free/reduced lunch data was not populated, so the poverty rate cannot be quantified from that field. Resources are relatively favorable: per-pupil spending was $20,522 in 2020–2021, higher than Allendale, Egremont, Morningside Community School, and Williams, and the student-teacher ratio was 10 in 2024–2025. Yet outcomes remain far below Pittsfield and the state. Other nearby same-district schools—Robert T. Capeless Elementary School, Egremont, and Williams—rank in the 61st–70th percentile, showing that the school’s results are not simply explained by the district average. The main takeaway: low performance is broad across subjects, grades, and subgroups, and higher spending and smaller classes have not translated into stronger proficiency.
