Gosnold, Massachusetts
The Gosnold Schools by the Numbers
A snapshot of Gosnold’s own school district, the smallest in Massachusetts. The state records no students enrolled, and the town keeps the school ready all the same. Detailed figures come from the state Department of Elementary and Secondary Education (DESE).
District Snapshot

A district with no enrolled students is a rare thing, and it is not an error. State law requires Gosnold to keep a school district ready for any child who comes to live on the island, so the town maintains Cuttyhunk Elementary and a superintendent even in a year with an empty roll.

Academic Performance & Context
Cuttyhunk Elementary is an elementary district, so it has no graduation rate of its own, and with no students currently enrolled the state publishes no test scores for it. Older and off-island students continue their schooling on the mainland. MCAS results and accountability data are published and updated each year by DESE, so this guide links to the live state profile rather than reprinting numbers that quickly go stale.
