MCAS
MCAS results for the spring of 2025 have been released to the public.
MCAS results for the District and Schools, including Accountability reports, are available on the DESE website in School Profiles under the assessment table.
Accountability classifications are determined through data in:
Achievement on MCAS
Growth on MCAS
High School Completion
Progress towards attaining English Language proficiency
Additional indicators: chronic absenteeism and advanced coursework completion
The 2025 Accountability classifications for Duxbury are:
District | Substantial Progress Towards Targets |
|---|---|
Duxbury High School | Meeting or Exceeding Targets |
Duxbury Middle School | Substantial Progress Towards Targets |
Alden School | Meeting or Exceeding Targets |
The district utilizes multiple data sources, including MA State Assessment results to measure student growth in learning. The successful passing of MCAS no longer serves as the Commonwealth of Massachusetts’ requirement for graduation. As a result, individual districts were required to create Competency Determinations under 603 CMR 30: Standards for Competency Determination and Local Graduation Requirements. As of November 5, 2025, Duxbury Public Schools’ Competency Determination can be found in School Committee Policy IKFE: Competency Determination.
