Summary:
In Wareham, Massachusetts, there is one listed middle school, Wareham Middle, which serves grades 5–7, enrolls 432 students, and is located at 4 Viking Drive; because it is the only middle school in the city, parents should compare it mainly against the Wareham district and Massachusetts state averages.
In 2025–2026, the school’s all-grade MCAS proficiency was 35.41% in ELA, 32.58% in Math, and 45.11% in Science. That beat district averages (31.01% ELA, 29.66% Math, 36.00% Science) in every subject, but it remained below state averages in ELA (40.03%) and Math (41.11%) and above the state in Science (40.98%). Year over year, the school gained 0.62 points in ELA, 3.20 points in Math, and 7.71 points in Science, exceeding the district’s gains in all three subjects and the state’s changes as well. Science is the clearest strength.
Grade-level results show 5th grade is strongest: ELA 37.31% vs. district 37.14% and state 38.15%; Math 36.84% vs. 35.97% and 39.50%; Science 45.11% vs. 44.20% and 43.07%. The biggest concern is 7th-grade Math at 25.58%, which is above the district’s 25.00% but below the state’s 37.48% and 9.46 points below the school’s 6th-grade rate and 11.26 points below its 5th-grade rate. ELA is stable across grades, ranging from 32.85% to 37.31%. Statewide, the school ranked 262nd of 478, in the 45th percentile with 2 stars, improving from 319th and the 35th percentile in 2023–2024 but plateauing since. The district ranks 277th of 351, in the 21st percentile with 1 star, though school and district rankings are different units. Resource figures include a student-teacher ratio of 11.4 and per-student spending of $19,099 (2020–2021); free/reduced-price lunch data is not available.
