Summary:

Stoneham, Massachusetts has five public schools serving students from kindergarten through 12th grade: three elementary schools (K–4), one middle school (5–8), and one high school (9–12), with 2,244 students enrolled across them. The Stoneham district ranks 133 of 351 districts statewide, at the 62nd percentile with 3 stars. Free and reduced-lunch percentages are blank for every school, so economic context is unavailable.

Elementary results are uneven. Colonial Park is the strongest and most balanced, ranking 255 of 899 elementary schools (72nd percentile, 4 stars—the only 4-star school here) with ELA and Math both at 52.94%, above district and state. South is the math standout at 56.20% in All Grades Math (state 41.11), though its rank has slipped from 79th to 73rd to 67th percentile over three years. Robin Hood is the weakest, at 456 of 899 (49th percentile, 2 stars), and the only elementary school below the state in Math, at 40.85%.

Stoneham Central Middle School shines in Science (56.21% vs. state 40.98) and 8th-grade Civics (54.73% vs. 39.77), but 6th-grade ELA is only 25% and All Grades ELA is 39.05%, slightly below state. Stoneham High stays above state in all tested subjects and graduates 92.5%, yet ELA fell from 61.42 to 50.36 and Math from 59.84 to 47.52 year over year. Spending ($16,398–$19,426) and student-teacher ratios (10.4–12.6) do not line up simply with outcomes.
