Summary:

The Milford district in Massachusetts serves about 4,354 students across five schools: three elementary schools (Brookside and Memorial for grades K–2, and Woodland for grades 3–5), one middle school (Stacy Middle, grades 6–8), and one high school (Milford High, grades 9–12). The district is ranked 289 of 351 in Massachusetts, at the 18th percentile with a 1-star rating, and in 2025–2026 every tested school scored below the state average in every reported subject.

Among the tested schools, Stacy Middle is the clearest improver: it is the only school with 2 stars in the latest rank history and gained ground in ELA, math, science, and civics year over year, though its math (22.47% proficient) remains the weakest tested subject in the district. Woodland is the relative bright spot in math and science, with science at 37.82% versus the district's 31.22% — the narrowest gap to the state anywhere in this data. Milford High, the largest school at 1,316 students, saw sharp declines: ELA fell 10.58 points, science 7.53 points, and math 4.27 points, with its star rating dropping from 2 to 1.

Brookside and Memorial have no MCAS records because they serve only K–2, so they cannot be compared on proficiency. They stand out on resources instead: Brookside reports the highest per-student spending ($17,309), while Memorial has the lowest student-teacher ratio (10.4) and the smallest enrollment (435). Keep in mind that free/reduced-lunch data is not populated for any school in this data set, spending figures are from 2020–2021, and staffing ratios are from 2024–2025, so comparisons should be read with those limits in mind.
