Summary:
ZIP code 02466 covers Auburndale, Massachusetts, and contains two elementary schools — C C Burr and Williams — both serving grades K–5 within the highly rated Newton district, which ranks 30th of 351 districts statewide. Together they enroll 561 students: 350 at C C Burr (about 62% of the total) and 211 at Williams (about 38%).
C C Burr is the standout of the two. It ranks 41st of 899 elementary schools statewide (95th percentile, 5 stars) and has held 5 stars for the last two years, up from 4 stars in 2023–2024. In 2025–2026 it scored 65.87% proficient in English language arts, 75% in math, and 83.33% in science — above both the Newton district and Massachusetts state averages in every subject. Its science result is especially notable: 16.45 percentage points above the district and 42.35 points above the state. Its grade-level math scores are also consistently strong across 3rd, 4th, and 5th grades.
Williams ranks 154th of 899 (83rd percentile, 4 stars) and is above state averages in all three subjects, but below the Newton district in each: 57.28 in ELA, 66.02 in math, and 58.82 in science. Its brightest spot is 4th grade math at 82.86% proficient — higher than C C Burr’s 78.57, the district’s 67.63, and the state’s 43.20 — though its 3rd and 5th grade math scores (55.88 and 58.82) are much lower. Williams has the smaller student-teacher ratio (8.5 versus 11.1), yet C C Burr shows stronger overall achievement and higher rankings; the data do not establish cause. Free/reduced lunch percentages are blank for both schools, so socioeconomic context cannot be compared and should not be read as zero.
