Summary:
The 01473 zip code in Massachusetts is home to two elementary schools: Westminster Elementary and Meetinghouse School. Both schools serve students from kindergarten through 6th grade, and the data suggests they are performing at a similar level with no clear standout or underperforming school in the area.
According to the available data, Westminster Elementary is ranked 529 out of 906 Massachusetts elementary schools for the 2024-2025 school year, with a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's proficiency rates on the MCAS Next Generation assessments are slightly below the Ashburnham-Westminster district and state averages in some subject areas. In contrast, Meetinghouse School does not have any available statewide ranking or rating information, but its per-student spending of $16,235 for the 2020-2021 school year is higher than the $12,855 spent per student at Westminster Elementary.
The lack of differentiation between the two schools in the 01473 zip code may indicate a need for further analysis to understand the factors contributing to their performance. Additionally, the difference in per-student spending between the schools could warrant investigation to determine how the additional resources are being utilized and their impact on student outcomes. However, the absence of certain data points, such as free/reduced lunch rates, limits the depth of analysis that can be conducted, and obtaining a more comprehensive data set would allow for a more thorough examination of the schools' performance and student demographics.
