Summary:
The 01550 zip code of Southbridge, Massachusetts is home to 6 schools, including 3 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 2 high schools. While the schools in this area serve a diverse student population, the data reveals significant challenges and underperformance across multiple metrics compared to state averages.
The standout schools in this area are Southbridge Academy, which has the lowest four-year graduation rate and highest dropout rate, and Charlton Street Elementary School, which has the lowest proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science across all grades. These schools' performance is concerning, with Charlton Street Elementary ranked 915th out of 916 Massachusetts elementary schools and receiving a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.
The Southbridge school district as a whole appears to be underperforming, with low academic proficiency, high dropout rates, and resource allocation that does not seem to be translating into improved student outcomes. The data suggests the need for a comprehensive review of the district's strategies, resource allocation, and targeted interventions to better support student success and address any potential equity and opportunity gaps.
