Summary:

Framingham has 9 elementary schools — mostly serving grades K–5, with Miriam F McCarthy School and Harmony Grove Elementary serving PK–5 — enrolling 4,376 students in a district that ranks 310 of 351 Massachusetts districts. The Framingham district averages are below state averages in ELA (24.25% vs. 40.03%), math (21.23% vs. 41.11%), and science (26.97% vs. 40.98%).

Among the schools, Hemenway is the clear standout: it ranks 381 of 899 schools, at the 58th percentile, with 3 stars, and is the only school above the state average in ELA (46.30%) and science (60.20%). King Elementary and Charlotte A Dunning form a next tier, both with 2 stars; King’s ELA is 35.00%, math 30.00%, and science 32.81%, while Dunning’s ELA is 32.20%, math 31.86%, and science 38.71%. Potter Road is above district averages in all three subjects but below state averages.

The lowest results come from Harmony Grove (ELA 9.24%, math 7.61%, science 2.90%), Barbieri Elementary (ELA 15.58%, math 9.74%, science 14.43%), and Miriam F McCarthy School (ELA 17.33%, math 13.93%, science 18.75%). Math is the broadest weakness: no school reaches the state math average of 41.11%. Resources do not align simply with outcomes — the highest-spending school, Mary E Stapleton Elementary at $24,414 per student, is at the 13th percentile, while Hemenway spends $19,544 and has the highest student-teacher ratio at 13.4. Enrollment size also is not predictive: the largest school, Barbieri, is near the bottom, and the smallest, Mary E Stapleton, is also low-performing.
