Summary:

ZIP code 02149 covers Everett, Massachusetts, where 8 schools serve about 6,934 students: 6 elementary schools (five K–8 and one K–5), 1 high school, and 1 K–12 alternative school, all within the Everett district, which ranks 319 out of 351 districts statewide — the 9th percentile. Notably, no middle schools are listed separately, but the K–8 schools cover those grades. Free/reduced lunch data is blank for every school, so economic context cannot be compared, and spending figures are from 2020–2021 while student/teacher ratios are from 2024–2025.

Webster School is the clear standout: the only 2-star school, ranked 570 of 899 (37th percentile), with science at 40.48 — nearly matching the state's 40.98 — plus the lowest student/teacher ratio (8.1) and highest per-student spending ($18,614) among comprehensive schools. Sumner G. Whittier School is the most improved, rising from the 17th to the 20th to the 26th percentile, and its 7th grade ELA score of 45.0 beats the state's 39.91. Lafayette School ties Sumner at the 26th percentile, with math at 26.56 above the district's 22.48.

At the lower end, Parlin School (11th percentile) and Madeline English School (12th percentile) both show improvement, and George Keverian School posts the strongest 8th grade civics score at 23.76 — though all civics results fall well below the state's 39.77. Everett High (18th percentile) has a 78.7% graduation rate and a striking split: Physics EOC at 47.06 exceeds the state's 46.58, while Biology EOC at 15.95 lags far behind the state's 37.68. Devens School, with only 38 students, spends $30,063 per student with a 3.6 ratio, but reports very low proficiency, including exact 0% in math.
