Summary:
Schools in Blue Hills Regional Vocational Technical consist of exactly one school: Blue Hills Regional Vocational Technical, a vocational-technical high school serving grades 9–12 with 910 students, located at 800 Randolph Street in Canton, Massachusetts. Because the district contains only this one school, area, district, and school-level figures describe the same institution, and there are no peer schools within the area to compare it against.
The standout story is a split profile. Completion outcomes are exceptional: a 98.2% graduation rate and a 0.0% dropout rate in 2024-25 indicate that students stay enrolled and finish. Academic proficiency points in a different direction. In 2025-26, MCAS Next Generation results trail the state in every reported subject: 10th-grade English Language Arts at 38.91% versus the state's 45.48%, Mathematics at 34.87% versus 43.73%, Science at 30.87% versus 40.50%, and end-of-course Biology at 30.74% versus 37.68%. The widest gaps are in Science (9.63 points below state) and Mathematics (8.86 points below). ELA showed the sharpest year-over-year swing: it ran slightly above the state in 2024-25 (51.40% vs. 50.66%) before dropping 12.49 points, compared with a 5.18-point state decline. Math and Science have remained below the state in both years, so those gaps look persistent rather than one-year anomalies.
The school's SchoolDigger ranking has also slipped, from 3 stars and 53rd percentile (rank 165 of 348) in 2023-24 to 2 stars and 41st percentile (rank 209 of 353) in 2025-26. Resource figures — an 11:1 student-teacher ratio in 2024-25 and $23,816 per-student spending in 2020-21 — are descriptive only, since the data set includes no state or peer benchmarks for them, and the free/reduced-lunch percentage is not reported. Overall: strong completion outcomes alongside academic proficiency and ranking challenges worth watching.
