Summary

Mittineague is a small elementary school in West Springfield, Massachusetts, serving grades 1–5 with about 110 students as part of the West Springfield district. Its clearest academic strength is math: 44.26% of students reached proficiency in 2025–2026, above both the district's 40.32% and the state's 41.11%. English language arts is the main concern at 27.87% proficient, roughly 8 points below the district and 12 points below the state. Science, at 31.58% in grade 5, also trails both. In plain terms, math is a relative bright spot while reading and science need attention.

The school has also slipped from a recent high point. Mittineague ranked at the 64th percentile (3 stars) in 2023–2024 but sits at the 39th percentile (2 stars) in 2025–2026 — slightly above its district's overall standing, but below its own earlier results. The ELA weakness appears in 3rd, 4th, and 5th grades alike, so it is not limited to one class. Structurally, the school is unusually small, with a student–teacher ratio of 8.3 in 2024–2025, lower than nearly every nearby school. Per-student spending of $15,504 in 2020–2021 is moderate and below several neighbors.

Among nearby West Springfield schools, John R Fausey and Tatham post much stronger ELA and science results, while Memorial is lower overall; Philip G Coburn is similar in ELA but weaker in math. Nearby Agawam schools generally show higher ELA, and nearby Springfield schools are far below. One bright spot: students from low-income families ranked at the 63rd percentile (3 stars), above the school's overall result. Because the school is small, year-to-year numbers can swing widely, so families should weigh trends rather than a single year.

In the beginning I was very devastated because how they were with me in 2017. But now is a new beginning. They are now respecting me and behavior are good. And the new principal is awesome. Close Quote
