Middle Schools in Framingham

The Framingham school district in Massachusetts is home to three middle schools: Walsh Middle, Fuller Middle, and Cameron Middle School. These schools serve students in grades 6-8 and provide a range of educational opportunities within the Framingham community.

Among the three middle schools, Walsh Middle stands out as the top performer, ranking 286 out of 493 Massachusetts middle schools in the 2023-2024 school year. Walsh Middle consistently outperformed the Framingham and Massachusetts averages on MCAS Next Generation test scores across multiple subjects and grade levels. In contrast, Fuller Middle and Cameron Middle School struggled to match the district and state averages, with significantly lower proficiency rates in many subject areas.

The data also reveals differences in the racial compositions of the three middle schools, with Walsh Middle having a more balanced mix of White and Hispanic students, while Fuller Middle had a higher Hispanic population and Cameron Middle School had a majority White student body. Further investigation would be needed to understand the specific factors contributing to the performance disparities between the schools.
