Summary

Midland Street is a K–6 elementary school in Worcester, MA, serving 249 students as part of the Worcester district.

On 2025–2026 MCAS Next Generation tests, Midland Street performed well above the Worcester district in ELA (40.0% vs. 24.98%), math (43.2% vs. 24.25%), and science (48.57% vs. 23.97%). It was at the state average in ELA, above the state in math, and well above the state in science. Math rose from 28.24% to 43.2%, and science from 29.17% to 48.57%. Statewide, it ranked 426th of 899 elementary schools (53rd percentile, 3 stars), up from 605th of 906 (33rd percentile, 2 stars) the year before. The Worcester district is ranked 304th of 351 statewide. Among 11 nearby Worcester elementary schools, Midland Street was second in overall rank and in all three subjects, behind only Flagg Street, which scored 55.2% ELA, 67.7% math, and 59.6% science. Most other nearby schools scored much lower, including May Street, which had lower overall scores.

Grade results vary. Fifth grade is a standout: ELA 51.43%, math 54.29%, and science 48.57%, with 5th-grade ELA above Flagg Street’s 43.4% and the state’s 38.15%. Third grade is also strong. Sixth grade is the clearest weakness: ELA 25% and math 29.17%, below both district and state averages, and far below May Street’s 6th-grade math (60.98%) and Flagg Street’s (82.98%). Low-income students performed relatively well (63rd percentile, 3 stars), but special education students dropped to the 13th percentile, 1 star, in 2024–2025, down from the 75th percentile in 2020–2021. English learners were around the middle (55th percentile, 3 stars, 2023–2024). Free/reduced lunch data is not reported, and some subgroup and spending figures are limited or older, so these findings are directional.
