Summary

Calcutt Middle School serves 476 students in grades 6–8 in the Central Falls community. Its most important takeaway is that proficiency remains well below state rates in every subject: ELA is 10.7% compared with 33.1% statewide, math is 9.6% compared with 31.9%, and science is 19.1% compared with 31.1%. Science is the school’s relative bright spot, but the state gaps are still substantial.

Compared with nearby schools, Calcutt is in the lower half for ELA and math, but the upper half for science: its scores are higher than four nearby schools in ELA, three in math, and six in science. Within the Central Falls district, ELA is nearly level with the district result (10.7% versus 10.6%), math is 3 points lower, and science is 3 points higher. The pattern is not uniform across subjects: science stands out relative to both the district and nearby schools, while math is the weakest comparison.

Results have risen in all three subjects in the latest year available: ELA increased 5 points from 2022–23 to 2025–26, math rose 3 points from 2024–25 to 2025–26, and science rose 12 points over that same period. SchoolDigger’s overall ranking also improved from the 5th percentile and 0 stars in 2023–24 to the 18th percentile and 1 star in 2025–26, though it remains low. SchoolDigger places the school at the 55th percentile for English Language Learner Students, well above its 18th-percentile overall standing; its White Students ranking is at the 2nd percentile. As context, the free/reduced-lunch rate is 93%, compared with a nearby-school average of 76%, while the student–teacher ratio of 13.6 is close to the nearby average of 13.9.
