Each year the Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education (DESE) releases a report card for every school district as well as for each school within each district.
February 2, 2024
Dear Families:
Every year, each public school and school district in Massachusetts receives a report card. Just as your child’s report card shows how they are doing in different subjects, each school’s report card and the district’s report card are designed to show families how our schools and district is doing in different areas. A link to our district’s report card is available at: https://reportcards.doe.mass.edu/2023/DistrictReportcard/01740000.
The report card includes multiple measures of our district’s performance – more than just MCAS scores. It represents a new way of looking at school performance, by providing information on student achievement, teacher qualifications, student learning opportunities, and more.
Report cards are designed to be useful tools for everyone connected to our schools. Families can use the information to have meaningful conversations with us about what their child’s school is doing well and where there is room for improvement. Community and education leaders can use the information to better understand how to support students and our schools.
You will notice on our report card that we are doing very well as a district in a wide variety of areas including Digital Literacy & Computer Science, attendance rates, students involved in the arts, and high school students completing advanced coursework and going on to post secondary education and training. To improve student performance in our district, we have implemented a new, state endorsed curriculum in English in grades K-8, and anticipate doing so in Mathematics next fall. We encourage you to become involved in helping us improve our school system. We see parents as critical partners in the success of our students and our schools, and we are grateful for your continued support.
Finally, if your child attends a school that receives federal Title I funds, you also have the right to request the following information about the qualifications of your child’s classroom teachers:
Whether your child’s teacher is licensed in the grade levels and subject areas they teach
Whether your child’s teacher is teaching under an emergency license or waiver
The college degree and major of your child’s teacher
Whether your child is provided services by paraprofessionals and, if so, their qualifications.
If you have questions about your student’s report card, would like to become involved in school improvement activities, or would like to request information about the qualifications of your child’s classroom teacher please contact your building principal.
If you have questions about our district’s report card please contact me.

Sincerely,
Charles Caragianes, M.Ed.
