Summary:
Wareham, Massachusetts has four schools in the Wareham district — one elementary school (PK–4), one middle school (5–7), and two high schools (grades 8–12 and 9–12) — serving roughly 1,916 students, with the district ranked 277 of 351 statewide at the 21st percentile with 1 star.
Wareham Middle is the academic bright spot: it beats the district in ELA (35.41% vs 31.01%), math (32.58% vs 29.66%), and science (45.11% vs 36.00%), and its science score tops the state's 40.98% — the only all-grade subject in the district to do so. Its rank rose from the 35th to the 45th percentile. Wareham Senior High is a paradox: it has the district's highest graduation rate (85.6%), lowest dropout rate (4.4%), lowest student-teacher ratio (8.5), and highest spending ($21,824 per student), yet its proficiency is low, with math at just 15.57% against the state's 41.11%. Because it serves grades 8–12, its all-grade scores match its 8th-grade scores and are not comparable to a typical 9–12 high school.
Wareham Elementary School, with 912 students, is nearly half the district; its math (34.90%) is above the district average but its ELA (29.77%) is below it, and both trail the state. Wareham Cooperative Alternative School, with only 39 students, has a 40.0% graduation rate, a 20.0% dropout rate, and 0% 10th-grade ELA proficiency, though so few students make these figures volatile. Free/reduced lunch data are blank for every school, so poverty context is unknown.
