Summary:
ZIP code 01501 covers Auburn, MA, and its five public schools — all part of the Auburn district — enroll about 2,506 students from kindergarten through high school. Three elementary schools feed the system: Pakachoag School and Bryn Mawr (both K–2) and Swanson Road Intermediate School (grades 3–5). Auburn Middle serves grades 6–8, and Auburn Senior High is the largest school in the ZIP with 834 students in grades 9–12.
Among the three schools with state test and rank data, Swanson Road Intermediate School shows the strongest current performance. In 2025–2026 it sits above both district and state in all three tested subjects, including science at 49.17% proficient against a state figure of 40.98%. Its 3rd- and 4th-grade math results are solid, but 5th-grade math is only 31.11%, well below the state's 39.50% — a focused weakness rather than a school-wide one. Auburn Middle holds the highest current rank percentile of the group at 62nd with 3 stars, and its 8th-grade results are strong in math (48.13%), science (45.21%), and civics (46.28%), all above state. Its 6th grade is much weaker, with ELA at 32.68% and math at 36.41%, and all-grade ELA slipped from 45.11% to 39.50% year over year.
Auburn Senior High has the lowest student-teacher ratio at 12.0 and slightly better graduation and dropout rates than the district, but its relative standing has fallen sharply — from the 71st percentile and 4 stars in 2023–2024 to 47th percentile and 2 stars in 2025–2026. Current grade-10 ELA, math, science, and Biology EOC results are all below state. Pakachoag School and Bryn Mawr have no test or rank data because they serve only K–2; Bryn Mawr has the highest per-student spending ($15,542) and Pakachoag the highest student-teacher ratio (14.6) with the lowest spending ($14,231). Free/reduced-lunch figures are blank for every school, so socioeconomic context is unavailable.
