Summary

Albert F. Argenziano School at Lincoln Park is a PK–8 school in Somerville, MA, serving 553 students and ranking 393rd of 899 Massachusetts schools (56th percentile, 3 stars) in 2025–2026 — above both the state median and its district average.

After a long climb from the 16th percentile in 2015–2016, Argenziano is now at its strongest statewide rank since 2016–2017, and it outperforms its Somerville district in all three tested subjects: English Language Arts (45.45% vs. 39.52%), Mathematics (40.31% vs. 36.69%), and Science (43.14% vs. 40.09%). It also beats the state average in ELA and Science, while Math sits just slightly below the state mark. Within Somerville, it is the second-strongest PK–8 school with rank data, behind John F Kennedy and well ahead of E Somerville Community and Winter Hill Community. Compared with nearby Cambridge schools such as Maria L. Baldwin and John M Tobin, Argenziano scores lower overall, but it outperforms Fletcher/Maynard Academy in ELA and Science despite spending far less per student ($19,380 vs. $40,576) and having a higher student-teacher ratio (13.4 vs. 7.3).

Grade-level results are uneven. The school is strongest in 5th Grade Science (49.18%), 8th Grade Civics (41.46%), 4th Grade Math (45.28%), and middle school ELA. The clearest gaps are 8th Grade Math (30.00%) and 5th Grade Math (34.43%), both below district and state, plus 8th Grade Science (34.15%). Among student groups, Special Education students are a standout at the 81st percentile (4 stars), up sharply from the 29th percentile in 2023–2024, while Male and White students rank above the state median. The largest gaps are for Low Socio Economic Status students (18th percentile, 1 star) and Hispanic students (30th percentile, 2 stars); both have improved recently but remain below the school's other groups. Overall, Argenziano is a rising, above-average school whose strengths are ELA, Science, middle school performance, and special education outcomes, with math and subgroup gaps as its main opportunities.
