Zip code 01801 contains exactly one public high school: Woburn High, serving grades 9–12 with 1,259 students as part of the Woburn district. With only one school in this area, there is no local peer to compare it against, so the most useful benchmarks are its own district and the state. The school reports a student–teacher ratio of 11.2 and per-student spending of $20,017, based on 2020–21 figures; free/reduced-lunch data is not reported in this record.
