Middle Schools


Same methodology; shorter list! Here you can see Madison schools simultaneously thrashing the competition but also being incredibly bad. This is why you can’t just say “Oh the average MMSD score is so low – it must be a terrible school district.” Looky – the top 5 schools are Madison middle schools. 6 of the 9 in the top 10% are Madison middle schools.

Hamilton Middle school is 6th from the top among the 320 or so middle schools statewide. Again that’s pretty darn good. On the other hand, if your kids go to Wright or Whitehorse, you probably want to move or request an intra-district transfer if you can.
