Summary:
ZIP code 01833 covers Georgetown, Massachusetts, and contains three public schools serving prekindergarten through 12th grade — Penn Brook (PK–5), Georgetown Middle School (6–8), and Georgetown High School (9–12) — all part of the Georgetown district. Total enrollment across the ZIP is 1,129: Penn Brook is the largest school at 674 students, followed by Georgetown High at 268 and Georgetown Middle at 187. The district as a whole is ranked 169 of 351 statewide, at the 52nd percentile with 3 stars. Notably, there is no alternative school in this list.
Georgetown High School has the strongest overall profile and is the clear standout of the three. Its 2025–26 10th-grade scores beat the state in ELA (50.85 vs. 45.48), math (55.93 vs. 43.73), and science (50.00 vs. 40.50), with math running 12.20 points above state. It also posts a 95.4% graduation rate, a 1.5% dropout rate, the lowest student-to-teacher ratio in the ZIP (9.3), and the second-highest per-student spending ($18,517). Its rank percentile has been volatile, however — 74, then 47, then 69 over three years — which may reflect its smaller enrollment.
Penn Brook is above state in all-grade ELA (42.54), math (42.16), and science (42.86), with especially strong 4th-grade results (math 64.29 vs. 43.20; ELA 51.19 vs. 37.43), but its all-grade scores and rank percentile (63 to 51 over two years) are trending down. Georgetown Middle School is the weakest in science, at 25.25 vs. 40.98 state, with 8th-grade ELA, science, and civics all below state while 6th and 7th grades are stronger. Spending and staffing patterns do not line up simply with outcomes, and free/reduced lunch is not reported for any of the three schools, so economic context is missing.
