Summary:
The 01360 zip code in Massachusetts is home to a single elementary school, Northfield Elementary, which serves grades PK-6 with a total enrollment of 168 students. Northfield Elementary is part of the Pioneer Valley school district, which is ranked 221 out of 348 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.
While Northfield Elementary's student-teacher ratio of 10.5 to 1 is relatively low, the school's academic performance has been a concern. Its statewide ranking has declined over the past few years, going from 489 out of 906 Massachusetts elementary schools in 2024-2025 to 628 out of 928 in 2022-2023. The school's proficiency rates on the MCAS Next Generation assessments are generally below the state and district averages, particularly in mathematics, where the school's 2024-2025 proficiency rate was 39.13% compared to 40.74% for the state and 31.4% for the Pioneer Valley district.
Despite the higher-than-average spending per student of $20,594 in the 2020-2021 school year, Northfield Elementary's consistent 2-star rating from SchoolDigger suggests that the school may be struggling to provide a high-quality education to its students. Further analysis and targeted interventions may be necessary to address the school's academic challenges and improve its overall performance.
