Summary:
The 02664 zip code area in Massachusetts is home to 4 schools that are part of the Dennis-Yarmouth school district, including 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. While the district as a whole has consistently underperformed compared to state averages on MCAS assessments, with proficiency rates well below the state in most subjects and grade levels, one school stands out as a potential bright spot.
Station Avenue Elementary has the highest MCAS proficiency rates in both English Language Arts and Mathematics compared to the other schools in the district, with 46.51% of students proficient or better in ELA and 62.79% proficient or better in Math in 2024-2025. In contrast, Dennis-Yarmouth Regional High School has seen a decline in its performance, dropping from 224 out of 347 Massachusetts high schools in 2022-2023 to 274 out of 348 in 2023-2024, and its overall rating has decreased from 2 to 1 star over the same period.
While the district's overall performance is concerning, the strong performance of Station Avenue Elementary suggests that there may be opportunities to learn from and replicate effective practices at the elementary level. Further analysis of demographic factors and targeted interventions could help address the district's underperformance and improve outcomes for students across all grade levels.
