Summary
Hopkinton Middle School, located at 88 Hayden Rowe Street in Hopkinton, MA, serves 996 students in grades 6–8 and belongs to the Hopkinton district, which ranks 3rd out of 351 Massachusetts districts (99th percentile, 5 stars). In 2025–2026, the school ranked 14th of 478 middle schools statewide (97th percentile, 5 stars) — a slight step down from 7th of 484 in 2024–2025 and 6th of 493 in 2023–2024, but still firmly in the top 3% of the state. It has earned 5 stars and stayed above the 94th percentile in every listed year since 2015–2016.
In 2025–2026 MCAS Next Generation results, proficiency was 71.68% in English Language Arts, 79.51% in math, 73.16% in science, and 77.96% in civics, compared with state rates of 40.03%, 41.11%, 40.98%, and 39.77%. That places Hopkinton Middle at the top of its nearby comparison group in ELA, math, and civics; only P Brent Trottier edges it in science, 74.13% to 73.16%. Math is the biggest differentiator: 6.32 points above Sarah W Gibbons Middle and 8.77 points above P Brent Trottier, with 8th-grade math at 81.79%. ELA slipped from 76.18% in 2024–2025 to 71.68% but still leads the local group.
Subgroup results are strong overall: 5-star effectiveness for female, male, Asian, Hispanic, and multi-racial students, and 4 stars for White students, Special Education students, and Low Socio Economic Status students. One signal worth watching: the Low Socio Economic Status rank fell from 97th percentile (5 stars) in 2023–2024 and 2024–2025 to 84th percentile (4 stars) in 2025–2026. Notably, the school posts these outcomes with the highest student-teacher ratio in the nearby group (14.1) and 2020–2021 per-student spending of $15,272, below several higher-spending peers such as P Brent Trottier ($21,704) and Sarah W Gibbons ($17,992). Free/reduced lunch data is not populated in the available data, and Disabled Student subgroup data ends in 2021–2022, so it should not be treated as current.
