The new principal is great. I am proud to say I feel safe sending my son to school as he is always outside greeting the kids as they come into start the day. My son is in kindergarten so at 1st he had a rough time but now "He always tells me what a great day he had in school and how his teacher Mrs. Lancaster is the best" When in need of any extra help it has always been discussed w/ great communication. The PTO is great very involved etc... 5 stars in my opinion

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.
