Summary

West Brookfield Elementary is a K–6 public elementary school in the small town of West Brookfield, MA, serving 227 students as part of the Quaboag Regional district. The school is ranked 413th of 899 Massachusetts schools in 2025–2026 — the 54th percentile with 3 stars — while its district sits far lower, at the 19th percentile with 1 star. West Brookfield is therefore a clear bright spot within its own district. Its rank history shows a long slide from the 75th percentile in 2015–2016 down to the 38th percentile in 2022–2023, followed by a steady recovery to 43rd, 44th, and now 54th percentile.

Academically, the school's standout subject is science: 62.16% of students were proficient in 2025–2026, above the state's 40.98% and far above the district's 26.47%. Math has improved substantially, from 28.39% proficient in 2022–2023 to 48.61% in 2025–2026, beating the state's 41.11%; grades 4 through 6 are especially strong, though grade 3 math (28.13%) lags. English language arts is the weakest area at 33.79%, below the state's 40.03% but still well above the district. The school is unusually effective with low-income students, ranking in the 91st percentile (5 stars). Special education results, however, have dropped from the 62nd percentile in 2023–2024 to the 25th percentile — a trend worth watching. Class sizes have improved markedly, with the student–teacher ratio falling from 17.4 to 11.9.

Compared with nearby schools, West Brookfield outperforms Warren Elementary, its district peer, in every subject, and beats East Brookfield Elementary, North Brookfield Elementary, Hardwick Elementary, and Wire Village School in math and science. Its closest high-performing benchmark is Brookfield Elementary, 2.55 miles away, which scores higher in ELA and math and spends less per student. With only 227 students, year-to-year swings can partly reflect small cohort sizes.
