Summary:
Erving Elementary is a public elementary school serving 129 students in grades PK-6 in the town of Erving, Massachusetts, which is part of the Erving School District. While the school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio, its academic performance, as measured by MCAS Next Generation assessments, is generally below the state averages across all grades and subjects. For example, in 2023-2024, the school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts (33.87%) and Mathematics (24.19%) were lower than the state averages (39.17% and 40.91%, respectively).
Erving Elementary's performance has declined over the years, as evidenced by its decreasing statewide ranking from 565 out of 926 schools in 2013-2014 to 605 out of 916 schools in 2023-2024. The school's rating has also dropped from 2 stars to 1 star during this period. When compared to nearby schools, such as Leverett Elementary and Gill Elementary, Erving Elementary generally performs worse academically, with lower proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics.
Despite the school's relatively high spending per student, which has increased from $33,225 in 2018-2019 to $41,150 in 2020-2021, its academic performance remains below the state average. Additionally, Erving Elementary's rankings for specific student groups, such as female students, white students, and special education students, are concerning, as the school ranks in the bottom 20% of Massachusetts elementary schools for these groups in recent years. These findings suggest that the school may need to focus on improving its instructional practices and addressing the unique needs of its student population to improve academic outcomes.
