Summary:
ZIP code 02359 covers Pembroke, Massachusetts, where five schools serve students from pre-kindergarten through 12th grade: one high school, one middle school, and three elementary schools, all part of the Pembroke district. Together they enroll 2,367 students. The elementary schools hold about 56% of that enrollment, the high school about 29%, and the middle school about 15%. The district is rated 3 stars and ranks 136 of 351 statewide, placing it in the 61st percentile. Free and reduced-lunch figures are not reported for any school here, and spending data dates to 2020-2021.
North Pembroke Elementary is the clear standout — the only 4-star school, ranking in the 76th percentile among Massachusetts elementary schools. Its all-grade proficiency is 46.85% in ELA, 65.22% in math, and 58.11% in science, above both district and state in every subject. Pembroke High School ranks in the 69th percentile with 3 stars, posting 10th-grade results of 51.41% in ELA, 55.75% in math, and 63.22% in science — more than 22 points above the state in science — plus a 96.5% graduation rate and 1.2% dropout rate. Pembroke Community Middle School has a bright spot in 8th-grade math at 69.14%, well above the state's 41.67%.
Math is the district's clearest relative strength: every school's math proficiency beat the state average. ELA is far more uneven. North Pembroke and the high school were above state, Hobomock Elementary sat essentially at the state line at 40.45%, and Bryantville Elementary and the middle school fell below — Bryantville's 6th-grade ELA of 18.87% is the weakest single result here. Notably, North Pembroke posts the strongest elementary outcomes despite the highest student-to-teacher ratio in the group (14.7) and lower spending than Hobomock, which has the smallest classes (11.9) and highest per-student spending ($16,584) but ranks lowest at the 55th percentile. Hobomock improved from 2 stars to 3, while the high school slipped from 4 stars in 2023-24 to 3 stars.
