How U.S. News & World Reported came up with their rankings

The methodology for the rankings analyzed mathematics and reading performance of schools at the state and district level, according to U.S. News & World Report. Out of 105,093 pre-K, elementary and middle schools, the outlet examined state assessments and looked at students who were proficient or above proficient in these academic subjects, among other factors.

“The 2025 Best Elementary and Middle Schools rankings offer parents a way to evaluate how schools are providing a high-quality education and preparing students for future success,” U.S. News managing editor for education Dr. LaMont Jones said in a news release. “Research continues to indicate that how students perform academically at these early grade levels is a big factor in their success in high school and beyond.”
