Summary:
ZIP code 02790 covers Westport, Massachusetts, where two elementary schools serve different parts of the early grades: Westport Elementary (grades 1–4, 463 students) and Alice A Macomber (grades PK–K, 163 students). Together they enroll 626 students, with Westport Elementary holding about 74% of that total. Both belong to the Westport district, which is rated 2 stars and ranks 210 of 351 districts, at the 40th percentile.
Westport Elementary is the only one of the two with MCAS scores and rank history, and it is improving. Its 2025–2026 rank is 471 of 899, at the 48th percentile with 2 stars, up from 541 of 916 two years earlier. Math proficiency is a strength: 44.59% of all grades meet expectations, above the district's 33.38% and the state's 41.11%. ELA is weaker at 37.34% — better than the district's 31.32% but below the state's 40.03%. Results differ sharply by grade: 3rd grade beats the state in both ELA (46.61%) and math (51.28%), while 4th grade trails the state in both, with ELA at 27.83%, 9.60 points below.
Alice A Macomber has no MCAS or rank data because it serves PK–K, which falls outside tested grades, so it can only be compared on staffing and spending. Its student-teacher ratio is 15.0 versus 11.6 at Westport Elementary, and its 2020–2021 per-student spending is $16,452 versus $16,311 — but these cover different grade levels and data years, so they are not performance comparisons. Free/reduced-price lunch percentages are not reported for either school, so economic context is unknown.
