Summary:
ZIP code 01731 covers Hanscom AFB, Massachusetts, and it has just one public school: Hanscom School, an elementary-classified school at 6 Ent Road that actually serves grades PK–8 with 493 students, in the Lincoln district.
For parents, the headline is that Hanscom School performs above the state overall but below its own district. In 2025–2026, all-grade ELA was 46.32%, math 44.20%, and science 47.06% — above state in every subject but below Lincoln in every subject, with the math gap to the district especially wide. The school's rank slipped from 3 stars and 59th percentile in 2024–2025 to 2 stars and 49th percentile in 2025–2026, driven largely by a science drop from 56.94 to 47.06. The district itself is strong, ranked 83 of 351 and 4 stars.
Grade-level results are uneven rather than uniformly good or bad. Eighth grade is a bright spot in reading, science, and civics: ELA reached 69.05%, science 60.98%, and civics 65.00%, all clearly above state and roughly matching or beating the district. Third grade also starts strong, with ELA and math both at 50.00%, above state in both. The clearest concerns are 5th grade ELA at 26.09% and 5th grade science at 34.09%, well below both district and state, and 8th grade math at 41.46%, which is about even with state but 22.83 points below the district. Resources look favorable on paper — an 8.1 student-teacher ratio in 2024–2025 and $28,262 per-student spending in 2020–2021 — though the spending figure is older, and the free/reduced lunch percentage is blank, so family income context is unknown.
