The district ranks 144 of 351, in the 59th percentile with 3 stars, and the school holds 3 stars in each of the last three reported years. Because the district contains only this one school, district and school MCAS proficiency figures are the same, while the reported graduation and dropout rates differ slightly between school and district.
For 2025-2026, the school is above the state in most reported MCAS Next Generation areas: 10th-grade ELA at 51.87% proficient versus 45.48% statewide, 10th-grade Mathematics at 46.81% versus 43.73%, 10th-grade Science at 43.09% versus 40.5%, and Physics End of Course at 47.56% versus 46.58%. The clear exception is Biology End of Course, reported at 0% proficient compared with 37.68% statewide. The school’s rank moved from 163 of 348 in 2023-2024 to 113 of 349 in 2024-2025, then to 132 of 353 in 2025-2026, remaining above the 2023-2024 position despite the recent slip. Graduation and dropout outcomes are strong: 95.9% graduation and 2.3% dropout at the school level for 2024-2025, compared with 93.7% and 2.7% at the district level.
Year-over-year, 10th-grade proficiency declined from 2024-2025 to 2025-2026 in all three reported subjects: ELA fell from 58.6% to 51.87%, Mathematics from 49.76% to 46.81%, and Science from 53.92% to 43.09%. Even so, the school stayed above the state in each subject; the science margin narrowed from +8.03 points to +2.59 points. Resource context is partial: per-student spending was $15,463 in 2020-2021 and the student-teacher ratio was 11.5 in 2024-2025, but no state comparison is provided, and the free/reduced-lunch percentage is unknown. Overall, Somerset Berkley Regional High School appears generally above state in ELA, math, science, and physics, while Biology End of Course and the recent science decline are areas to watch.
