Summary:

ZIP code 01776 (Sudbury, MA) is served by six public schools — four elementary schools, one middle school, and one regional high school serving grades PK through 12 — educating roughly 3,974 students across the Sudbury and Lincoln-Sudbury districts. This is a uniformly high-performing cluster: every school beats the state average in every subject tested, by margins of 21 to 38 points, and five of the six schools carry 5-star ratings.

Lincoln-Sudbury Regional High stands out as the flagship, with a 98.7% graduation rate, a reported 0.0% dropout rate, and 10th-grade math at 81.29% — +37.56 points over the state, the largest gap in the data. Its soft spot is 10th-grade ELA at 66.77%, which trails the middle school and two elementaries. Ephraim Curtis Middle is the most consistent top performer, rated 5 stars in all three years. Among elementaries, General John Nixon Elementary, Josiah Haynes, and Israel Loring School all rank in the 88th–94th percentile, with Nixon posting the highest single result in the file — 4th-grade math at 87.93% — and Haynes the strongest three-subject margin over the state (+30.65 points). Peter Noyes is the largest elementary but posted the biggest one-year declines (ELA −9.31, math −8.06, science −12.91), while Loring was the most improved, climbing from 184th to 106th.

Across all six schools, ELA declined year over year at five and science at five, though elementary science is tested only in grade 5, so those swings likely reflect cohort differences rather than a district-wide shift. At Curtis Middle, 8th-grade science (62.36%) is the only subject where a Sudbury school falls below its own district figure (67.19%), and 8th-grade civics fell 12.31 points. Spending figures date to 2020-2021, and free/reduced-lunch percentages are blank for every school, so resource and equity comparisons aren't possible from this file.
