Summary

John W. Wynn Middle School in Tewksbury, MA, serves 539 students in grades 7 and 8 — the only upper-middle school in the Tewksbury district, just north of Lowell. In 2025–2026 it ranked 146th of 478 ranked Massachusetts schools (69th percentile, 3 stars), placing it twelve percentile points above its own district's standing.

Among nearby middle schools, Wynn sits squarely in the middle: clearly below the three Andover middle schools, just behind Wilmington Middle School, and clearly above the Billerica and Lowell middle schools. Its subject results tell a consistent story: ELA at 48.70% proficient and science at 51.17% both run well above the state, and civics (47.08%) is 7.3 points above state. Science is the standout — the third-highest among nearby schools. Math is the exception: 39.92% is the only core subject where Wynn falls below both its district and the state.

Inside the school, 8th graders perform well above the state in every subject, while 7th-grade math (29.51%) trails the state by about eight points — the single clearest place to focus. Other strengths: low-income students rank in the 76th percentile (4 stars), above the school overall, and Wynn delivers above-state results while spending less per pupil ($18,045 in 2020–21) and running larger classes (12.3 students per teacher) than most higher-ranked neighbors. The notable gap is special education, where students rank 45th percentile (2 stars), down from 62nd two years earlier. Feeder John F. Ryan (grades 5–6) scores below state, which makes Wynn's 8th-grade results look like real growth across the pipeline.
