Monomoy Regional High School up 65 spots statewide this year
Summary:

Harwich, Massachusetts has three listed schools — one elementary school serving pre-K through grade 4 and two high schools, one of which (Monomoy Regional High School) also serves grade 8 — enrolling 1,869 students in total, with about 76% of them in high school and no standalone middle school in the list.

The two high schools tell opposite recent stories. Monomoy Regional High School climbed 65 rank positions between 2024–25 and 2025–26, from 47th to 66th percentile, and its 10th-grade results beat the state in ELA (53.97 vs. 45.48), math (49.59 vs. 43.73), and science (50.85 vs. 40.50). Its 8th-grade ELA and math results, however, fall below state, so families should look at grade level rather than the schoolwide “All Grades” row, which is identical to the 8th-grade figures. Cape Cod Region Vocational Technical posts the strongest completion outcomes in the area — a 98.1% graduation rate and 0.6% dropout rate — but its 10th-grade scores dropped sharply from 2024–25 to 2025–26 (ELA 57.06 to 39.77, math 52.00 to 38.29, science 58.14 to 44.77), and its rank fell from 69th to 48th percentile. Both high schools still graduate students at over 97%.

Harwich Elementary School stands out in math: all-grade math is 51.61 against a state figure of 41.11, and 4th-grade math is 59.49 against 43.20. Its ELA results lag, at 38.06 all grades and 33.33 in 4th grade, though 3rd grade is close to state in both subjects. Staffing ratios are favorable everywhere — 9.8 students per teacher at Harwich Elementary, 10.9 at Cape Cod Voc, and 11.8 at Monomoy High — while per-student spending (2020–21) is highest at Cape Cod Voc ($25,363) and lowest at Monomoy High ($20,525). Free/reduced-lunch data are blank for all three schools, so economic context is unknown.
