The ratio of students to teachers in Rowe School District rose by 3.9% in the 2021-22 school year, according to the Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education.

There were 65 students being taught by 8.2 teachers in Rowe School District, which covers schools within Franklin County and has a main office in Rowe. That's an average of 7.9 students per teacher in the district during the 2021-22 school year.

In the previous year, Rowe School District had 63 students and 8.3 teachers on staff.

Despite the shortage, under-representation of ethnicities among teachers was found to be a concern. The Rennie Center reported that only nine percent of teachers are people of color.

Massachusetts was ranked as the eighth best state for teachers, according to a WalletHub study.
