Summary

Webster Middle School is a public middle school serving grades 5-8 in Webster, MA, with 592 students. The school is part of the Webster District, which is ranked 333 out of 348 districts in Massachusetts and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Webster Middle School consistently ranks in the bottom quartile of Massachusetts middle schools, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. Its MCAS proficiency rates are significantly below the state averages across all grades and subjects. For example, in 2024-2025, only 15.69% of students were proficient or better in ELA compared to the state average of 41.53%, and only 17.49% were proficient or better in Math compared to the state average of 40.74%. The school also struggles to serve its diverse student population, with its rankings for African American, Hispanic, White, and English Learner students all in the bottom quartile of Massachusetts middle schools.

Despite spending $16,086 per student, which is higher than the state average, Webster Middle School's academic outcomes are much worse than several nearby schools, such as Auburn Middle, Sutton Middle School, and Douglas Middle School. These nearby schools significantly outperform Webster Middle School on MCAS proficiency rates and SchoolDigger rankings, suggesting that simply increasing funding may not be enough to improve performance without addressing other underlying issues.
