Sometimes it can be difficult to compare schools when the Angelo is the only school your child/ren know. My children came here from a suburban blue ribbon school that really taught at levels designed to increase a child's ability to succeed not only on MCAS but in life. NOT SO AT THE ANGELO!!!!!! Not only has petty theft been a problem among the children but I have found the teachers are often disgruntled at best and ill-prepared for children who really come to learn and don't mind hard work. On the other if you find a really "nice" teacher often they are too friendly with the children engaging in hugging and not enough homework that challenges the young mind. Oh trust me I could go on about this school and my comments would only get worse. Suffice it to say this is NOT THE SCHOOL FOR BRIGHT CHILDREN! They don't know what to do with them until they are atleast in the 4th grade which is where the gifted child program begins but they have to bring children in from other schools because they are not preparing them to accel to that level from within.

About the tests


In 2010-2011 Massachusetts used the Massachusetts Comprehensive Assessment System (MCAS) to test students in grades 3 though 8 and 10 in English language arts and math and in grades 5, 8, and 10 in science. The grade 10 MCAS is a high school graduation requirement. The MCAS is a standards-based test, which means it measures specific skills defined for each grade by the state of Massachusetts. The goal is for all students to score at or above proficient on the test.
