Summary:
Woburn has seven elementary schools—two serving prekindergarten through grade 5 and five serving kindergarten through grade 5—enrolling 2,285 students in total, within a district ranked 221st of 351 in Massachusetts. At the district level, Woburn trails the state in all three tested subjects in 2025–2026: ELA 36.47% versus 40.03%, math 33.38% versus 41.11%, and science 35.28% versus 40.98%.
Results vary widely from school to school. Linscott-Rumford is the strongest overall performer, ranking 311 of 899 (65th percentile, 3 stars) with ELA 48.25%, math 49.56%, and science 52.78%—above both district and state in every subject. Clyde Reeves is close behind, ranking 340 of 899 (62nd percentile, 3 stars) and posting the group's highest ELA result at 48.65%. Malcolm White shows the sharpest improvement, moving from 1 star to 3 stars and from the 28th to the 53rd percentile, with ELA up 14.97 points and math up 13.15 points. At the other end, Goodyear is the clearest low outlier: 756 of 899 (16th percentile, 1 star), with ELA 21.57%, math 22.67%, and science 21.95%. Hurld-Wyman and Mary D Altavesta also show declines or volatility, while Shamrock has improved gradually.
Averaged across the seven schools, ELA is about 39.8%, math about 38.0%, and science about 37.3%, so the typical Woburn elementary school beats the district average but still trails the state in math and science. Averages can hide a lot: within Malcolm White, 3rd grade ELA and math are strong, while 5th grade ELA and math are both 26.42%. Per-student spending averages about $19,038 and student–teacher ratios average about 12.0, but neither shows a simple relationship with results here, and spending figures date to 2020–2021. Free/reduced lunch percentages are blank for all seven schools, so that context could not be analyzed.
