Summary:
The 01610 zip code area of Worcester, Massachusetts is home to 5 public schools, including 4 elementary schools and 1 high school. While the schools in this area generally perform below the state average on standardized tests, one elementary school, Jacob Hiatt Magnet, stands out with significantly higher proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics compared to the district and state.
The lone high school in the area, Claremont Academy, has a relatively strong 4-year graduation rate of 86.0%, though its test scores lag behind the state average. In contrast, two other schools, Learning First Charter Public School and Woodland Academy, have particularly low proficiency rates, often under 20% in core subjects. This suggests significant performance gaps between the highest and lowest-performing schools in the zip code.
The data also reveals wide variations in per-student spending, from $15,110 at Claremont Academy to $28,929 at the preschool program, Head Start. This disparity in resource allocation may be a contributing factor to the uneven academic performance across the schools in the Worcester district.
