Summary:
Wilmington, MA has seven schools serving about 2,756 students across grades PK–12: five elementary schools, one middle school, and one high school. The Wilmington district ranks 76th of 351 districts statewide — the 78th percentile — with a 4-star rating. That is a district-level rating, not a school-by-school one.
Among the elementary schools, West Intermediate is the academic standout: science at 66.39% proficient, math at 60.71%, and ELA at 54.67%, all above district and state. Its statewide rank climbed from the 66th percentile in 2023–2024 to the 83rd in 2025–2026, the biggest improvement in the city. Its strength comes mostly from 5th grade, while 4th grade ELA and math trail district averages. North Intermediate has the highest reported ELA score at 56.90%, driven by 4th grade ELA at 62.10%, but its 5th grade math and science fall below district averages. For the tested grades 1–3, Woburn Street is stronger in ELA (54.14%) and Shawsheen Elementary stronger in math (53.40%).
Wilmington High posts a 95.9% graduation rate, a 1.4% dropout rate, and above-district scores in 10th grade ELA (55.21%), math (57.41%), and science (52.56%), though its rank percentile slipped from 82 to 75. Wilmington Middle School, the largest school at 782 students, sits below district all-grade figures but above district at each tested middle-grade level, with civics at 53.26% and a 9.5 student-teacher ratio. Boutwell (PK–K, 128 students) has no test scores but the highest spending ($23,025) and highest student-teacher ratio (12.6), so its academics cannot be compared. Free/reduced-lunch data is blank for every school, spending is from 2020–2021, and grade spans differ widely — so same-grade comparisons matter more than "All Grades" figures.
