Summary:
ZIP code 01451 covers Harvard, Massachusetts, where three public schools serve about 1,023 students: Hildreth Elementary School for pre-K through grade 5 (451 students), The Bromfield Middle School for grades 6–8 (244 students), and The Bromfield High School for grades 9–12 (328 students), all part of the Harvard district, which ranks 19th of 351 Massachusetts districts, in the 95th percentile with 5 stars.
The two Bromfield schools are the standouts. The Bromfield High School ranks 10th of 353 high schools statewide in 2025–2026 (97th percentile, 5 stars), after ranking 2nd and 11th in the two prior years, and reports a 100.0% graduation rate and a 0.0% dropout rate, with 10th-grade MCAS proficiency of 92.77% in ELA, 90.36% in math, and 80.95% in science. The Bromfield Middle School ranks 32nd of 478 middle schools (93rd percentile, 5 stars), with all-grade proficiency of 71.30% ELA, 67.93% math, 75.64% science, and 75.64% civics. Its math rose from 62.45% to 67.93% year over year and civics from 66.67% to 75.64%; 7th-grade math (52.63%) is the relative soft spot but still above the state's 37.48%.
Hildreth Elementary School is solid but less dominant: it ranks 119th of 899 elementary schools (87th percentile, 4 stars), down from 71st at 5 stars the previous year, and its ELA and math scores sit below district averages while its science score of 77.05% far exceeds the state's 40.98%. Science is a district-wide strength (75.64%–80.95% versus roughly 41–43% statewide). Note that science comparisons are not apples-to-apples (5th, 8th, and 10th grades), and free/reduced-lunch data are blank for all three schools, so economic context cannot be assessed.
