Summary:
ZIP code 02715 covers Dighton, Massachusetts, and includes three public schools — one elementary, one middle, and one high school — that together serve the full PK–12 pipeline for 1,454 students across two districts, Dighton-Rehoboth and Bristol County Agricultural.
Science is the clearest shared strength. Bristol County Agricultural High, the largest school with 631 students, posts the strongest science results: 55.33% proficient in 10th-grade science versus 40.50% statewide (14.83 points above), plus a 98.0% graduation rate and 1.3% dropout rate, though its 10th-grade ELA and math sit below state (math by 6.79 points). Dighton Middle School holds the highest current school rank percentile at 63rd (179/478, 3 stars) with science 7.21 points above state, but it lost ground year over year in every subject, including a 13.86-point drop in all-grade ELA, and its 5th-grade math is just 23.53%, 15.97 points below state. Dighton Elementary is the most improved: its rank percentile climbed from 43 to 57, and all-grade math rose from 37.30% to 48.75% (+11.45 points), now 7.64 points above state.
Spending and class size do not map neatly onto results: Bristol County Agricultural High has the highest per-student spending ($21,284) and lowest student-teacher ratio (11.9), while Dighton Middle has the lowest spending ($15,776) and highest ratio (14.4) yet the best current rank. Both Dighton schools (3 stars, 57th and 63rd percentiles) outrank their district's overall rating of 194/351, 45th percentile, 2 stars. Note that free/reduced-lunch data is not reported for any of the three schools, so economic context is unavailable, and per-student spending figures date to 2020–2021.
