Summary

Lake View is a PK–6 elementary school with 284 students at 133 Coburn Avenue in Worcester, MA, part of the Worcester district — a district ranked 304th of 351 statewide (13th percentile, 1 star), while Lake View itself ranks 306th of 899 schools (66th percentile, 3 stars). It is a genuine bright spot: its proficiency rates beat the Massachusetts average in ELA, math, and science, and every Worcester elementary school nearby sits in the bottom quartile statewide.

Among Worcester peers, Lake View leads in all three subjects in 2025–2026 — ELA 48.05%, math 49.35%, science 64.52% — roughly double the district rate in ELA and math and about 2.7 times it in science. Roosevelt is the next-best Worcester school in ELA (27.05%) and Belmont Street Community in math (30.92%), margins of about 21 and 19.5 points. Science is 32.3 points above Rice Square. Across district lines, Lake View's ELA matches Calvin Coolidge School in Shrewsbury (48.05 vs 48.39) almost exactly, even though Shrewsbury ranks at the 88th percentile (4 stars). Math is the clear gap: 11 points behind Coolidge and 19.5 behind Major Howard W. Beal School. Lake View also spends comparatively little — $14,750 per pupil, among the lowest in its peer group.

The school has climbed steadily, from the 32nd percentile in 2016–17 to 66th–68th with 3 stars in each of the last two years. Growth has been strongest for the students Worcester serves least well: its low-income subgroup rose from the 68th to the 92nd percentile, and English learners rank at the 79th percentile (4 stars). Two areas stand out for improvement: third grade, where ELA (35.71%) and math (40.48%) fall slightly below state averages while grades 4–6 exceed them, and math generally. Note also that free/reduced-lunch data is unreported for Lake View and its peers, and special education subgroup data is last reported for 2021–22.
