Summary:
ZIP code 01098 covers Worthington, Massachusetts, and contains exactly one school: R. H. Conwell, an elementary school serving grades PK–6 with 76 students. It is the only school in the Worthington district, which ranks 347 of 351 statewide (1st percentile, 0 stars). Because the district has just one school, every district-level figure reported here is also the school's figure.
On MCAS Next Generation tests, R. H. Conwell trails the state in every reported subject and grade. In 2025–2026, all-grades English Language Arts proficiency is 30.77% against a state average of 40.03%, while all-grades math is 15.38% against 41.11% — a 25.73-point gap. Grade-level math is the weakest area: 3rd grade math is 0% (42.19 points below the state) and 6th grade math is 7.14% (35.45 points below). Sixth grade ELA is 14.29% versus 40.26% statewide, and 3rd grade ELA is 30% versus 42.79%. In 2024–2025, ELA was 33.33% (state 41.53%), math 21.21% (state 40.74%), and science 15.38% (state 41.51%). ELA and math both slipped year over year.
The school's relative standing has also declined: it was in the 27th percentile with 1 star in 2022–2023, the 8th percentile with 0 stars in 2024–2025, and the 6th percentile with 0 stars in 2025–2026. Its student-teacher ratio was 10.1 in 2024–2025, and per-student spending was $17,070 in 2020–2021, though no statewide benchmark for spending is provided. Free/reduced lunch data is not reported, so socioeconomic context is unknown. With only 76 students, grade-level percentages may rest on very few test-takers and can swing sharply from year to year, even though the low proficiency levels themselves are consistent.
