Summary:
ZIP code 02347 in Lakeville, Massachusetts is served by a single middle school, Freetown-Lakeville Middle School, which educates 699 students in grades 6–8 as part of the Freetown-Lakeville district.
Because it is the only middle school in the ZIP code, Freetown-Lakeville Middle School is the sole local option, so families here have no neighboring public middle school to compare it against. Looking instead at statewide benchmarks, the picture is mixed. The school ranked 184th of 478 middle schools in 2025–26, placing it in the 62nd percentile with 3 stars — still above the state midpoint, though down from the 72nd percentile and 4 stars it earned in 2024–25. Its district, Freetown-Lakeville, ranks 124th of 351 districts, roughly the 65th percentile with 3 stars.
In 2025–26, the school's clearest strengths were math, science, and civics, all above the Massachusetts averages: science was 8.60 points above the state, math 5.21 points above, and civics 3.03 points above. Grade 8 stood out in particular, with math 10.02 points above the state and science 10.65 points above. English Language Arts was the main weak spot, at 34.63 — below both the district and the state — with 6th grade ELA at 26.99, a full 13.27 points under the state average. The year also marked a decline from 2024–25, when the school beat the state in every reported subject: ELA fell 10.47 points, civics 9.51 points, and math 4.42 points. Note that free/reduced lunch data is not reported here, so economic context cannot be assessed, and the spending figure of $14,832 per student dates to 2020–2021.
