Chelsea High School up 40 spots statewide this year
Summary:

ZIP code 74016 has three schools in the Chelsea area serving prekindergarten through grade 12: Art Goad Elementary School (377 students), Chelsea Middle School (191), and Chelsea High School (245). Their 2025–2026 results show meaningful differences by school and subject: science is closest to state results overall, while math has the largest overall gap. The most important finding is that all three schools remain below their state benchmarks in the three subjects they share, despite recent progress.

Chelsea High School leads in English Language Arts I at 21%, compared with 15% at Art Goad Elementary School and 11% at Chelsea Middle School; High is still 5 percentage points below the state’s 26%. Art Goad stands out in math (18%) and science (27%), leading Middle by 9 points in math and 1 point in science. High is lowest in math at 5% and science at 9%, respectively 20 and 21 points below state results. It reports 34% in U.S. History, 7 points below the state. These overall school comparisons need context because the schools serve different grade spans.

Results are moving closer to state levels: the average gap narrowed by 2 points in ELA, 4 in math, and 5 in science from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026. The sharpest change was Chelsea Middle School’s science result, which rose from 15% to 26% as the state stayed at 30%. SchoolDigger’s statewide percentile ranks also rose over the year: Art Goad went from 20th to 23rd, High from 8th to 16th, and Middle from 6th to 13th. In 2024–2025, free/reduced lunch eligible shares were 83% at Art Goad, 82% at Middle, and 73% at High; student-teacher ratios were 16.9, 17.8, and 16.3, respectively. These measures do not follow a simple pattern with test results. In 2025–2026, chronic absenteeism was 20% at Art Goad, compared with 14% at High and 10% at Middle.
