Summary:
The 02341 zip code area is home to two schools - Indian Head Elementary School and Hanson Middle School, both part of the Whitman-Hanson district. Indian Head Elementary stands out as a high-performing school, consistently outperforming the district and state averages on MCAS assessments and ranking in the top 40% of Massachusetts elementary schools. In contrast, Hanson Middle School performs close to the district average but slightly below the state average on MCAS assessments, though it still ranks in the top 40% of Massachusetts middle schools.
Both schools have a majority white student population, with Indian Head Elementary at 87.42% and Hanson Middle at 89.09%, significantly higher than the state average.

Financially, the schools in this area are well-supported, with Indian Head Elementary spending $15,290 per student and Hanson Middle spending $15,574 per student, both higher than the state average. Additionally, the student-teacher ratios are relatively low, at 14.2 for Indian Head Elementary and 11.7 for Hanson Middle, which may contribute to the schools' academic performance.
Overall, the schools in the 02341 zip code area, particularly Indian Head Elementary, are performing well academically and have a strong financial investment in education. However, the lack of racial diversity in the student population is an area that could be further examined and addressed to ensure equitable access to high-quality education for all students in the community.
