Summary
Chace Street is a K–5 elementary school in Somerset, MA, serving 297 students as part of the Somerset district, which ranks 178 of 351 districts statewide at the 49th percentile with 2 stars. In 2025–26, Chace Street itself ranks 495 of 899 elementary schools, at the 45th percentile with 2 stars. Over the last ten reported years it has generally been a mid-pack school, with annual percentile ranks ranging from 34 to 57 and averaging about 48; it reached the 54th percentile and 3 stars in 2024–25 before slipping in 2025–26.
Test scores are mixed. Science is a clear relative strength at 46.15% in 2025–26, above the district (44.80%) and the state (40.98%), and above the state in each of the last four reported years. ELA is 38.67%, roughly at district level (37.89%) and slightly below the state (40.03%). Math is the main weakness at 35.33%, below both the district (43.91%) and state (41.11%), and down from 51.91% in 2022–23. By grade, 3rd-grade ELA (48.89%) and 5th-grade science (46.15%) stand out, while math falls below district and state in grades 3, 4, and 5, and 5th-grade ELA is 32.69%.
Among nearby schools, Chace Street outperforms most Fall River comparators but trails North Elementary (65th percentile, 3 stars), which beats it in all three subjects, and some Swansea schools. South (50th percentile) has much stronger math at 50.82% but lower ELA. On state-relative subgroup effectiveness, the school's strongest results are for low-income (56th percentile) and special education (61st percentile) students, while results for other groups are uneven. Resources look relatively strong — a student-teacher ratio of 11.1 and per-student spending of $17,908 in 2020–21 — which points toward targeted instructional attention in math and 5th-grade ELA rather than a simple lack of resources. Free/reduced lunch data is not reported, so these findings are descriptive.
