Summary

Heights Elementary is a K–5 school in Sharon, MA, with 545 students — the largest enrollment among the nearby schools in this comparison — and it belongs to the Sharon district, which ranks 18th of 351 Massachusetts districts at the 95th percentile with 5 stars. In 2025–2026, Heights ranked 38th of 899 elementary schools statewide at the 96th percentile with 5 stars, and it has earned 5 stars every year shown, staying in the 95th–99th percentile — a sustained top-5% school.

Math is the clear strength: 77.86% of students met or exceeded expectations, about 36.75 points above the state, above the Sharon district, and higher than East Elementary and Cottage Street. Grade 4 math reached 81.82%. ELA is strong at 67.28%, roughly even with East Elementary. Science, at 67.78%, is the relative soft spot — still far above the state, but slightly below the district and below Cottage Street, Fisher, and Old Post Road. Because science is tested only in grade 5, that result can shift with the cohort.

Heights serves specific student groups exceptionally well: for low-income students it ranked 2nd of 742 schools statewide at the 100th percentile, and special education students ranked in the 90th percentile or higher. Its student–teacher ratio is 16.6, the highest among nearby schools, yet it still outperforms most of them — and the ratio has improved from 18.5 three years ago. Per-student spending was $17,873 in 2020–2021, close to the other Sharon schools. Nearby, only Old Post Road in Walpole outranks Heights, which remains the top-ranked Sharon elementary in this set.
