Summary:
ZIP code 01151 contains a single high school: Springfield Public Day High School, a grades 9–12 school at 90 Berkshire Street in Springfield, Massachusetts, serving 65 students as part of the Springfield district. Because it is the only high school in this ZIP code, the information below describes that one school rather than a comparison among several.
Outcome measures at the school are far below both its district and the state. The 2024–2025 graduation rate is 47.1%, compared with 82.0% for the Springfield district, and the dropout rate is 41.2% versus 9.7% districtwide — about four times the district rate. On the 10th-grade MCAS Next Generation exams, English Language Arts proficiency is 0%, while the district is at 27.61% and the state at 50.66%; math proficiency is 10%, against 18.07% in the district and 44.6% statewide. The school carries a 0-star rating, and its historical rank sits in the 1st percentile (343 of 345 in 2017–2018, 343 of 348 in 2016–2017, and 348 of 351 in 2015–2016). The Springfield district itself ranks 322 of 351 districts, at the 8th percentile with 0 stars.
Resources look different from results. The student-teacher ratio is 6.3, which is low, and per-student spending was $33,360 in 2020–2021 — a high figure, though that spending data is several years older than the outcome data. Free or reduced lunch status is not reported in this record, so it should be treated as unknown rather than zero. With only 65 students, each student accounts for roughly 1.5 percentage points, so rates can swing noticeably from year to year. Still, the low rankings stretch across three reported years, so the challenges do not appear to be a one-year anomaly.
