High Schools in Berkshire Hills

Berkshire Hills has exactly one public high school in this data set — Monument Mt Regional High — a regional school serving grades 9–12 with 431 students at 600 Stockbridge Road in Great Barrington, part of the Berkshire Hills district. Because there is only one high school here, there are no side-by-side school comparisons to make; the most useful way to read this school is against its own district and against the state.

The clearest strengths are in Science and Biology. In 2025–26, 10th-grade Science proficiency was 56.10%, about 15.6 points above the state's 40.50%, and Biology End-of-Course proficiency was 47.50%, about 9.8 points above the state's 37.68%. English Language Arts also improved sharply: 10th-grade ELA rose from 40.51% in 2024–25 to 50.55% in 2025–26, moving the school from about 10 points below the state to about 5 points above it. In fact, the school's proficiency rate is higher than the district's in all eight listed test rows, which is a strong sign of local performance. Its current rank is 129 of 353, a 63rd percentile, 3-star position.

Mathematics is the main concern, at 33.71% in 2025–26 and 32.91% in 2024–25 — roughly 10 to 12 points below the state in both years, though slightly above the district. Science also slipped year over year at the 10th-grade level, from 61.84% to 56.10%, while remaining well above the state. Ranking has been volatile: 115 of 348 (67th percentile, 3 stars) in 2023–24, down to 182 of 349 (48th percentile, 2 stars) in 2024–25, then back up in 2025–26. The graduation rate is 87.1% versus the district's 86.5%, and the dropout rate is 9.3% versus 9.2%. The student-teacher ratio is 9.2:1, and per-student spending was $23,375 in 2020–21.
