Sharon, Massachusetts, has one middle school serving grades 6–8: Sharon Middle, which enrolls 815 students at 75 Mountain Street. It belongs to the Sharon district, which is ranked 18th out of 351 Massachusetts districts—the 95th percentile with a 5-star rating. Sharon Middle itself has ranked 42nd out of 478 schools in 2025–2026, 42nd out of 484 in 2024–2025, and 49th out of 493 in 2023–2024, placing it at the 90th–91st percentile with 5 stars each year. Free/reduced lunch is not reported in this data set, so that context is unknown.

MCAS proficiency is far above state averages. In 2025–2026, all-grades ELA was 64.99% proficient versus 40.03% statewide, all-grades Mathematics was 69.65% versus 41.11%, all-grades Science was 67.86% versus 40.98%, and 8th-grade Civics was 71.65% versus 39.77%. The strongest reported subject-grade results were 6th-grade Mathematics at 75.72%, 8th-grade ELA at 72.16%, and 8th-grade Civics at 71.65%. The relatively softer spots, though still above state averages, were 7th-grade ELA at 58.95% and 8th-grade Mathematics at 65.88%. Results track closely with the district: slightly above in ELA and Civics, and slightly below in Mathematics and Science.

Year over year, Mathematics improved by +2.69 percentage points, while ELA declined by -2.06, Science by -5.50, and Civics by -3.93. The state changed by +0.37 in Mathematics, -1.50 in ELA, -0.53 in Science, and +0.61 in Civics. For parents, Sharon Middle is a stable top-decile school with large proficiency advantages over state benchmarks. The main internal opportunities are 7th-grade ELA, 8th-grade Mathematics, and reversing recent Science and Civics declines. The 2024–2025 student-teacher ratio was 10.5, and spending per student was $18,262 in 2020–2021, though that spending figure is several years older than the test data.
