Summary:

ZIP code 01235 covers Hinsdale, MA, and has just one school: Kittredge, an elementary school serving grades PK–5 with 185 students in the Central Berkshire district. Because it is the only school here, everything below describes Kittredge itself.

Kittredge is a 3-star school in 2025–2026, ranked 309 out of 899 schools statewide, which puts it at the 66th percentile. That is a big jump from 2024–2025, when it was ranked 511 out of 906 at the 44th percentile with 2 stars — an improvement of 202 school positions and 22 percentile points in one year. Math and science are its strongest subjects. All-grade math proficiency was 57.35%, well above the district’s 44.23% and the state’s 41.11%. All-grade science was 59.09%, also well above the district’s 48.26% and the state’s 40.98%. English Language Arts was more mixed at 42.65% — above the state’s 40.03% but below the district’s 45.56%. The school also gained ground in every subject year over year, adding 6.16 points in ELA, 18.16 points in math, and 15.76 points in science, while district and state changes were much smaller.

Grade-level results show wide variation. Third grade ELA was a standout at 66.67% and 5th grade math was excellent at 68.18%, both far above district and state. The clearest soft spot is 4th grade ELA at 22.73%, below the district’s 35.14% and the state’s 37.43%. Note that all-grade science reflects only 5th grade this year, and with just 185 students across seven grade levels, small groups can swing results from year to year. Two context points: free/reduced-lunch data is not reported in this record, and per-student spending of $17,561 comes from 2020–2021, which is older than the test data.
