Summary:
Somerset Berkley Regional School District serves a single public high school, Somerset Berkley Regional High School, located at 625 County Street in Somerset, Massachusetts. The school enrolls 896 students in grades 9 through 12. Since the district contains only this one high school, the most meaningful comparisons are between the school, the district, and the state overall rather than school to school. Free and reduced-lunch percentages are not included in this record, so the data does not support a full socioeconomic comparison.
By most measures, this is a solidly above-average Massachusetts high school. It ranked 132nd of 353 schools in 2025–2026, placing it in the 63rd percentile with 3 stars, and it has stayed above the state median in each of the last three years, moving from the 53rd percentile in 2023–2024 to the 68th in 2024–2025 before settling at the 63rd. Its 2024–2025 graduation rate of 95.9% and dropout rate of 2.3% both beat the district's 93.7% and 2.7%. In 2025–2026 MCAS testing, the school outperformed the state in 10th-grade English language arts (51.87% vs. 45.48% proficient), mathematics (46.81% vs. 43.73%), science (43.09% vs. 40.50%), and Physics End of Course (47.56% vs. 46.58%). The student-teacher ratio is 11.5.
Two things are worth watching. First, 10th-grade proficiency fell from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026 in ELA (58.60 to 51.87), mathematics (49.76 to 46.81), and especially science (53.92 to 43.09) — declines larger than the state's, which narrowed the school's advantage. Second, Biology End of Course shows 0% proficient at the school against 37.68% statewide, an outlier that may reflect no assessed students or a reporting issue and would need verification before drawing conclusions. Per-student spending was $15,463 in 2020–2021. Overall, completion outcomes are strong, but the recent test-score softening deserves attention.
