Summary:
ZIP code 01375 covers Sunderland, Massachusetts, and contains exactly one elementary school: Sunderland Elementary, a PK–6 school serving 174 students in the Sunderland district. Because it is the only elementary school in the ZIP code, there are no local peers to compare it against — the meaningful comparisons are to Massachusetts state averages and to the school's own past performance. Operationally, the school reports a low student-teacher ratio of 7.1 for 2024–2025 and per-student spending of $23,483 for 2020–2021, although that spending figure is several years old and no state benchmark is provided. Free/reduced-lunch data is not reported, which limits socioeconomic context.
Academically, the picture is mixed and shifted noticeably between years. In 2024–2025, Sunderland Elementary outperformed the state in all three all-grade MCAS subjects. In 2025–2026, it exceeded the state only in science, at 50.00% versus 40.98%. Math fell to 32.10% against a state average of 41.11%, a gap of 9.01 percentage points and a 16.09-point decline from the prior year. All-grade ELA slipped slightly below the state. Grade-level results vary widely: Grade 3 ELA, Grade 5 math, and Grade 5 science are each above state averages, while Grade 5 ELA (23.08% versus 38.15%) and Grade 4 math (−19.39 percentage points) are the largest weaknesses.
The school's rank fell from 384 of 906 (58th percentile, 3 stars) in 2024–2025 to 520 of 899 (42nd percentile, 2 stars) in 2025–2026; the district ranks 239 of 351, 32nd percentile, 2 stars. For parents, the most urgent academic priorities appear to be math in Grades 3, 4, and 6, and ELA in Grade 5, while science and Grade 3 ELA are strengths worth maintaining. With only 174 students, individual grade cohorts are small, so single-year percentages can swing widely on a few students and should be read with caution.
