Summary:

Zip code 01089 covers 8 schools — 6 elementary, 1 middle, and 1 high school — all part of the West Springfield district, serving about 3,998 students in total, though one campus is pre-K and kindergarten only. The district overall sits at the 34th percentile statewide (230th of 351) with 2 stars, but that average hides big differences: school rank percentiles run from 21st to 66th, and star ratings from 1 to 3. Note that free/reduced lunch data is blank for every school in this file, so comparisons based on economic disadvantage aren't possible here.

The academic leaders are Tatham (66th percentile, 3 stars) and John R Fausey (63rd, 3 stars). Both beat district and state marks in ELA, Math, and Science; Fausey's Science proficiency of 64.44% stands out. West Springfield Middle showed the strongest improvement, climbing from the 35th percentile and 2 stars to the 54th percentile and 3 stars, with gains in ELA, Math, Science, and 8th-grade Civics. Philip G Coburn (34th, 2 stars) and Mittineague (39th, 2 stars) sit in the middle, below state in ELA and Science.

Memorial is the lowest performer at the 21st percentile with 1 star, with ELA at 18.10% and Science at 16.67% — well under state — despite the highest per-student spending and one of the lowest student-teacher ratios. West Springfield High (43rd percentile, 2 stars) has 10th-grade Science slightly above state but ELA and Math below it, with a 91.7% graduation rate and 4.8% dropout rate. Scores also vary widely by grade within the same school, so school-wide averages can mask strong or weak cohorts.
