Summary:
ZIP code 02364 has one listed middle school: Silver Lake Regional Middle School in Kingston, MA, which serves grades 7–8 and enrolls 544 students as part of the Silver Lake district. Because it is the only middle school in this ZIP code, there is no local peer school to compare it with; the most useful comparisons are with its own district and with Massachusetts overall.
The school’s clearest strength is Mathematics. In 2025–2026, its All Grades Math proficiency was 48.52% versus 41.11% statewide, and its 7th grade Math result was 47.20% versus 37.48% statewide—its largest subject-level advantage. English Language Arts is also above the state overall (44.84% vs. 40.03%), but that advantage is driven mainly by 7th grade (47.39% vs. 39.91%), while 8th grade ELA is much closer to the state (42.35% vs. 41.70%). The school has held 3 stars and a 64th percentile ranking in both 2024–2025 and 2025–2026, and its rank improved from 196th of 493 in 2023–2024 to 170th of 478 in 2025–2026.
Relative weaknesses appear in Science and Civics. In 2025–2026, Science All Grades was 35.41% versus 40.98% statewide, and 8th grade Civics was 35.80% versus 39.77% statewide. Science improved year over year (32.58% to 35.41%), narrowing its gap to the state, while Civics declined (37.83% to 35.80%). In every reported subject, the school is only slightly above the district average, suggesting its results closely track district performance. Context data are limited: the student-teacher ratio is 12:1, per-student spending was $19,270 in 2020–2021, and the free/reduced-lunch percentage is not reported.
