Summary

Webster School is a K–5 elementary school at 30 Dartmouth Street in Everett, MA, serving 351 students as part of the Everett district.

The school is a relative bright spot in a low-ranked district: Everett ranks 319th of 351 districts, at the 9th percentile with 0 stars, while the school ranks 570th of 899 schools in 2025–2026, at the 37th percentile with 2 stars. It has improved from its 2020–2021 low but has not returned to its 2015–2018 levels. On 2025–2026 MCAS exams, the school substantially outperformed its district in all three subjects: ELA 32.09% vs. 22.23%, math 34.33% vs. 22.48%, and science 40.48% vs. 18.90%. Science was essentially at the state average (40.98%), while ELA and math remained below state averages. Among same-district schools, the school has the highest statewide rank and the highest proficiency rates in all three subjects compared with Parlin School, Lafayette School, Sumner G. Whittier School, and George Keverian School. Nearby, Ferryway in Malden has a similar rank (38th percentile); the school has higher science and nearly identical math but lower ELA. It outperforms A. C. Whelan Elementary School and Staff Sargent James J. Hill Elementary School in Revere in all three subjects, though William A Berkowitz Elementary and Edgar F. Hooks Elementary in Chelsea show exceptional math results and serve grades 1–4 only.

The school’s resource profile includes a very low student–teacher ratio of 8.1 in 2024–2025—the lowest among nearby schools—and per-student spending of $18,614 in 2020–2021, higher than all same-district comparables. Its subgroup results are a standout: English-language learners ranked at the 85th percentile, low-income students at the 75th, and special-education students at the 64th, all above the school’s overall 37th-percentile rank. Grade-level performance is uneven: third-grade math was above the state average, while fifth-grade math was far below; fifth-grade ELA matched the state, while third- and fourth-grade ELA lagged. Free/reduced-price lunch data were not available, so they should not be treated as zero or as a weakness. Overall, the school is improving and serves several key student populations comparatively well, with room to grow in ELA and math.
