CENTER

Center is a public elementary school that is part of the Mattapoisett school district, located in Mattapoisett, MA with about 239 students offering grade levels from Pre-Kindergarten to 3rd Grade. With about 20 teachers, Center has a student/teacher ratio of about 11:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.
