Summary

Kilmer K-8 School is a PK–8 school with 401 students at 35 Baker Street in West Roxbury, part of Boston Public Schools.

The school currently ranks 544th of 899 Massachusetts schools — 39th percentile, 2 stars in 2025–26 — which is above its district’s overall level but a clear drop from the 52nd–57th percentile it held for most of the past decade. The 2025–26 results show ELA proficiency at 33.49%, math at 27.49%, and science at 31.25%. Math is the standout concern: it is the only core subject where the school trails Boston district (29.12%), it ranks 8th of 9 nearby schools, and grade 7 math is just 11.43%. By contrast, grade 5 is a bright spot, with 63.64% ELA, 57.58% math, and 48.48% science — above state levels and among the top nearby schools. The challenge is concentrated in grades 6–8, where ELA falls to about 22% in grades 6 and 7.

Compared with nearby schools, Lyndon K-8 (0.79 miles away) ranks 69th percentile and posts 48.55% ELA and 44.00% math, while spending about $3,200 less per student and running a larger 12.1:1 student-teacher ratio; the school’s ratio is 9.9:1 and has risen from 9.0. Bates Elementary reaches 59.72% math and Mozart Elementary 51.47% ELA. Its per-student spending was $27,184 in 2020–21, mid-to-upper locally but not translating into top outcomes. Within the school, special education students have been a strength (53rd percentile in 2025–26, down from 83rd in 2023–24), low-income students fell to the 20th percentile in 2025–26, and male students lag female students by 18 percentile points. Free/reduced-lunch data are suppressed for this school and nearby schools, so that economic information is unknown, not zero.
