Summary

Glenwood is a PK–5 elementary school at 50 Morrison Terrace serving 275 students in Springfield Public Schools, a district ranked 322 of 351 in Massachusetts (8th percentile, 0 stars). Glenwood itself ranked 754 of 899 schools in 2025–2026, at the 16th percentile with 1 star — above its district's overall standing but still in the bottom fifth of the state. Its percentile has hovered mostly between 9 and 21 for a decade, so there has been no sustained breakthrough in overall rank.

Math is Glenwood's most distinctive strength. Math proficiency was 23.26%, above the Springfield average of 17.37% but far below the state's 41.11%, and it sits mid-pack among nearby schools. The strength is concentrated in grades 4 and 5 (27.08% and 29.03%, both above district), while 3rd grade math (16%) is well below district. Math has also improved over four years, from 15.5% in 2022–2023 to 23.26% in 2025–2026. Notably, Glenwood's measured effectiveness for some student groups is much higher than its overall rank: special education students were at the 50th percentile, low-income students at the 45th, and English learners at the 37th in 2025–2026. That said, higher-ranked neighbors show what is achievable locally, including Alfred G. Zanetti Montessori Magnet School at the 71st percentile with 4 stars, plus Samuel Bowles and Edward P. Boland School.

ELA and science are harder stories. ELA proficiency was 21.88%, essentially tied with the district's 22.09% but roughly 18 points below the state's 40.03%. Science was 22.58%, above the district's 20.9% but below the state and below the district at the tested 5th grade level. Locally, Glenwood trails Mary O Pottenger, Liberty, and German Gerena Community School, while outperforming Brightwood and Lincoln. Resources look reasonable, with an 11.7 student-to-teacher ratio and $19,608 per-student spending, so funding alone does not explain the gaps. Parents should note some data limits: free/reduced lunch figures are blank, and very small schools such as Springfield Public Day Elementary School are not reliable comparisons.
