Summary:
ZIP code 02322 covers Avon, Massachusetts, and contains just one elementary school: Ralph D Butler, a PK–5 school with 323 students located at 1 Patrick Clark Drive and serving the Avon district. Because it is the only elementary option in the area, families here have a single public school choice, and the district itself ranks 301st of 351 in Massachusetts — the 14th percentile — with 1 star.
Ralph D Butler's clearest bright spots are science and 5th grade English. All-grade science proficiency was 41.18% in 2025–2026, slightly above the state's 40.98% and well above the district's 30.17%. Science was also the school's biggest improvement, up 9.27 percentage points from 31.91% the year before, while state science dipped slightly. Fifth grade ELA reached 41.18%, above both the district (40.38%) and the state (38.15%). The school also outperformed its own district in all three all-grade subjects, though the district's low statewide standing means beating it does not guarantee strong statewide results.
Mathematics is the major concern. All-grade math proficiency was 18.83%, 22.28 percentage points below the state's 41.11%, and the school's math score fell 10.70 percentage points year over year while state math held roughly steady. Third grade math was 9.43%, 32.76 points below state, and even the strongest grade, 5th, was 27.45% — still 12.05 points behind. All-grade ELA (35.06%) also trails the state's 40.03%, with 3rd and 4th grade ELA the weaker grades, while 3rd grade math is the single weakest result in the data. The school holds a 2-star rating, ranked 624th of 899 schools at the 31st percentile, with its percentile slipping from 37 to 31.
