A few schools stand out. PROMISE College and Career Academy is the highest-ranked school here (191/353, 46th percentile, 2 stars), and its 10th-grade ELA proficiency of 67.44% is above both the district's 21.66% and the state's 45.48%. North Middle School is the strongest middle school (305/478, 36th percentile, 2 stars), leading West Middle School and South Middle School in ELA, math, and science, with 8th-grade math at 44.80%, above the state's 41.67%. Louis F Angelo Elementary is the top elementary school (616/899, 31st percentile, 2 stars), beating district averages in every subject. New Heights Charter School of Brockton posts the best completion results — a 96.3% graduation rate and 0.9% dropout rate, versus the district's 75.4% and 11.6% — though its test scores are mixed.

Across the ZIP code, most results trail state benchmarks. Elementary district ELA is 20.08% versus the state's 40.03%, and high-school district math is 15.34% versus 43.73%. Performance varies widely even within the same district: Angelo's all-grade math is 31.55%, while Oscar F Raymond's is 7.31%.

Free/reduced-price lunch data is not available here, so economic context cannot be analyzed. Only 3 of 15 schools hold 2 stars, and five have 0.
