These students did not meet the required standards of the Math portion of the MCAS, compared to the 15% who did.

Lynn Public Schools District roughly covers schools within Essex County and has a main office in Lynn.

In the 2021-22 school year, 399,938 students took the Math test in Massachusetts with 84% students failing, 7.6% less than the year before.

According to the Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education's 2022 Massachusetts Comprehensive Assessment System (MCAS), the average scale score for grade 10 English Language Arts was 503, which met the expectation level, while the average scale score for grade 10 Science was 499, which only partially met the expectation level.
