District-Level NCES Analysis

Bridgewater-Raynham operates 8 public schools serving 5,521 students, placing it among the smaller districts in Massachusetts. The school portfolio breaks down into 4 elementary, 2 other, 1 high, 1 middle schools, giving families a clear picture of grade-band coverage before they move, rent, or enrol. Aggregated across those campuses, enrollment totals 5,682 pupils using the NCES Common Core of Data (CCD) 2022-23 release, and the district is geographically located in Plymouth County County.

Per-pupil expenditure runs $33,490 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, which aggregates every revenue and spending line reported under federal accounting standards. The funding mix is 48.7% local, 44.9% state, and 6.4% federal — a breakdown that matters because districts leaning heavily on local revenue are more exposed to property-tax swings, while higher federal shares typically track Title I concentration. Average teacher compensation clocks in at $98,271 per NCES F-33, a signal of the district's ability to recruit and retain staff against neighbouring districts. The district's equity score — 41/100, ranked #155 of 362 in Massachusetts against a state average of 38 — measures how evenly funding reaches schools within its boundaries.

Academic infrastructure includes 1 of 8 schools offering Advanced Placement (12 AP courses district-wide), a 414.3:1 student-counselor ratio, above the 250:1 ASCA recommendation, and 29.1% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 69.8% White, 14.3% African American, 8.7% Hispanic or Latino across the district's schools.

Bridgewater-Raynham Regional accounts for 26.2% of all Bridgewater-Raynham student enrollment

That concentration — well above the 8.4% national median for largest-entity share — means Bridgewater-Raynham-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the dominant entity. Grade band: high. A single dominant campus often anchors a district's program offerings and staffing patterns; the share helps explain why district-wide averages may not reflect the typical neighbourhood-school experience. When one entity dominates a region's footprint, its programmatic and budget decisions effectively set policy for a majority of the affected population.

Bridgewater-Raynham school enrollment ranges from 10 students (lowest) to 1,487 students (highest), a spread of 1,477 students. That ratio is among the widest observed and reflects extreme enrollment heterogeneity — the district operates both small specialty programs and large comprehensive campuses inside a single budgeting unit. Per-school staffing ratios, programme availability, and capital-renovation cycles often diverge inside the same district based on enrollment shape.

Bridgewater-Raynham student-counselor ratio is 414:1 — high (typically associated with staffing constraints that limit per-student counselor time; CRDC data shows higher ratios cluster in larger urban systems)

student-counselor ratio is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: the ratio counts FTE counselors against total enrollment — districts that contract intervention or social-emotional staff outside the counselor classification may be under-counted Higher values may reflect larger urban scale or recent resource constraints that have widened the gap.

Bridgewater-Raynham chronic absenteeism rate is 29.1% — near the typical range (US average ~28) — aligned with the national post-pandemic baseline of roughly 28% chronic absenteeism

chronic absenteeism rate is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: a student is chronically absent if they miss ≥10% of enrolled days for any reason — illness, family obligations, or disengagement Variation between sub-units within Bridgewater-Raynham is typically wider than the Bridgewater-Raynham-aggregate figure suggests.
