With a student-teacher ratio of 11.8, the school appears to provide smaller class sizes and potentially more individualized attention for its students.
While Mary Rowlandson Elementary is ranked in the top 30% of Massachusetts elementary schools, its statewide ranking has declined slightly in recent years, dropping from 269th in 2023-2024 to 356th in 2024-2025. This could be an area for further investigation to understand the factors contributing to this change. Overall, the school's higher per-student spending and focus on providing additional resources and support for students may be contributing to its above-average performance within the Nashoba district.
