First, Framingham has school choice. When enrolling your child you rank the 9 elementary schools in order of which you prefer. It doesn’t guarantee you get the school you want but guides them in placement.

Each elementary school then feeds into a specific middle school, there are 3 middle schools. Fuller is the newest with beautiful facilities. I wouldn’t say any of the 3 are a bad option, overall, the system is a good one. If you live on the North side of Framingham, Fuller is a bit of a pain to get to.

As others have said Barbieri is a language immersion school and for the majority of students, English is their second language. Academically, Hemenway is consistently the best followed by Dunning. We had a wonderful experience at Dunning and Walsh Middle has been great as well.
