Summary

John W Rogers Middle is a public middle school in Rockland, MA, serving 697 students in grades 5-8. The school is part of the Rockland school district, which is ranked 206 out of 348 districts in Massachusetts and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Academically, John W Rogers Middle has consistently ranked in the middle-to-lower range of Massachusetts middle schools, with proficiency rates on MCAS Next Generation assessments generally below the state average. However, the school's performance for Hispanic and English Language Learner students is relatively stronger, with these subgroups ranking in the top half or top third of Massachusetts middle schools. Nearby schools like South Middle School in Braintree and Norwell Middle School consistently outperform John W Rogers Middle on academic measures.

Despite the school's relatively high per-student spending of around $17,000 and a decreasing student-teacher ratio, the impact on student outcomes has not yet been fully realized. The school's resource allocation and utilization could be further investigated to identify opportunities to optimize support and drive improved academic performance across all student subgroups.
