Summary:
ZIP code 02180 is served by three elementary schools — Colonial Park, Robin Hood, and South — all part of the Stoneham district and all serving grades K–4. Together they enroll 956 students: 380 at Robin Hood, 347 at South, and 229 at Colonial Park. The Stoneham district ranks 133 of 351 districts statewide, placing it in the 62nd percentile with 3 stars.
Colonial Park has the strongest current overall profile, ranking 255 of 899 schools (72nd percentile, 4 stars) with the highest all-grade ELA and math proficiency in the group, both at 52.94% — well above the district and state. Its 4th-grade results are especially strong: 54.35% in ELA and 52.17% in math. South is the math standout, with all-grade math at 56.20% and a 3rd-grade math score of 65.63%, the highest single grade-level result in the data; its rank is 300 of 899 (67th percentile, 3 stars). Robin Hood is the largest school but has the lowest current rank, 456 of 899 (49th percentile, 2 stars), with ELA above district and state but math below the district and slightly below the state — its 4th-grade ELA (35.82%) and math (38.24%) are both below district and state averages.
All three schools exceeded the district and state in 2025–26 ELA, while South and Colonial Park also exceeded both in math. One shared trend is that math declined at every school from 2024–25 to 2025–26; ELA trends were mixed, with Colonial Park improving by 5.63 points while South and Robin Hood declined. South's rank has also slipped over three years, from the 79th to the 67th percentile. Note that free/reduced-lunch data is not reported for these schools, spending figures are from 2020–2021 while student-teacher ratios are from 2024–2025, and grade-level scores in small K–4 schools can swing year to year.
