Summary:
Zip code 01757 covers Milford, Massachusetts, and contains exactly one public middle school: Stacy Middle, which serves grades 6–8 and enrolls 989 students. It is part of the Milford district. The school has a student-teacher ratio of 11:1 (2024–2025) and per-student spending of $15,014 (2020–2021). Free/reduced lunch information is not available, so poverty context cannot be evaluated. Because this is the only middle school in the area, the most useful comparison is the school's own progress over time and how it stacks up against the district and the state.
Stacy Middle is improving from a low starting point. In 2025–2026 it ranked 335th of 478 middle schools — the 30th percentile — and earned 2 stars, its best result in three years after two years at 1 star (359th of 484 at the 26th percentile in 2024–2025, and 357th of 493 at the 28th percentile in 2023–2024). Test scores rose in every reported subject from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026: ELA +1.27 points, math +4.15, science +4.03, and 8th grade civics +2.54. Notably, the school gained ground while district and state ELA and science results mostly slipped or stalled, which makes the math and science gains stand out.
There is still real work to do. Stacy Middle trails the Massachusetts average in every 2025–2026 subject and grade reported. Math is the biggest concern: all grades math is 22.47% proficient versus the state's 41.11%, with 7th grade math at 19.00% against 37.48%. The strongest area is 8th grade ELA at 33.99%, compared with 41.70% statewide. Within the district, the picture is more encouraging — the school's grade-level results exceed district figures in every reported grade and subject. The district overall ranks 289th of 351 (18th percentile, 1 star). For parents, the headline is upward momentum: a school trending in the right direction, with math as the clear priority.
