Summary:
ZIP code 02645 in East Harwich, Massachusetts contains one middle school in this data set: Cape Cod Lighthouse Charter School, a charter school serving grades 6–8 with 251 students, operating within the Cape Cod Lighthouse Charter (District). Because it is the only middle school here, the most useful comparisons are between the school and Massachusetts state averages and between the school and its own prior-year results.
The school's overall standing has improved steadily. Its state rank moved from 218 of 493 (56th percentile) in 2023–2024, to 169 of 484 (65th percentile) in 2024–2025, to 147 of 478 (69th percentile) in 2025–2026—a 71-position gain over two years, placing it roughly in the top third of Massachusetts middle schools. English Language Arts is its clearest strength: at all grades, 54.58% of students were proficient versus 40.03% statewide, and 6th grade ELA reached 60.71% against a state figure of 40.26%. Science and Civics also sit above state averages, with all-grades Science at 51.35% versus 40.98% state and 8th grade Civics at 49.32% versus 39.77% state. Science showed the largest one-year jump, rising 13.25 points from 38.10% to 51.35%, while Civics declined 9.01 points from 58.33% but remained above state.
Mathematics is the main academic gap. All-grades Math came in at 35.42% proficient compared with 41.11% statewide, with 8th grade Math the weakest result at 31.08% versus 41.67% state, about 10.59 points below. Seventh grade Math is the exception, edging slightly above state. For context, the school reported an 11.7:1 student-teacher ratio in 2024–2025 and per-student spending of $19,966 in 2020–2021. Free and reduced lunch data was not reported, so socioeconomic context cannot be analyzed. With 251 students across three grades, year-to-year swings at individual grade levels should be read with caution.
