The ratio of students to teachers in Foxborough Regional Charter District fell by 3.9% in the 2021-22 school year, according to the Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education.

There were 1,689 students being taught by 136.1 teachers in Foxborough Regional Charter District, which covers schools within Norfolk County and has a main office in Foxborough. That's an average of 12.4 students per teacher in the district during the 2021-22 school year.

In the previous year, Foxborough Regional Charter District had 1,714 students and 132.9 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.

However, the state is facing a teacher shortage, just like the rest of the U.S. NewsNation reported that the state was offering emergency teaching licenses to educators who only had bachelor’s degrees, in an effort to get more teachers into schools.
