High Schools in Hopkinton

Hopkinton has one high school serving grades 9–12: Hopkinton High, with 1,267 students, part of the Hopkinton district. Because the town has only one listed high school, school and district figures are nearly identical, so families should read them as one story rather than a comparison among schools.

Hopkinton High stands out statewide: the district ranks #3 of 351 in Massachusetts, placing it in the 99th percentile with 5 stars. Rank history shows #5 of 348 in 2023–2024, #15 of 349 in 2024–2025 — still top 5% in the state — and a rebound to #3 of 353 in 2025–2026. Proficiency on MCAS Next Generation is far above state averages. In 2025–2026, 10th-grade ELA was 87.01% proficient (state 45.48%), mathematics 85.2% (state 43.73%), science 85.67% (state 40.5%), and Biology End-of-Course 84.72% (state 37.68%) — gaps of roughly +41 to +47 percentage points. The school also improved from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026 in ELA (84.33% to 87.01%), math (80.2% to 85.2%), and science (79.46% to 85.67%), while state rates declined in all three, widening Hopkinton's lead.

Outcomes are strong beyond test scores. The 2024–2025 graduation rate was 96.9% (district 95.8%) with a 0.3% dropout rate, matching the district. The student-teacher ratio was 14.3 in 2024–2025, and per-student spending was $15,978 in 2020–2021 — older data with no state or peer context here. Two caveats: the free/reduced-lunch field is blank, so it is unknown rather than 0%, and the 2025–2026 Biology End-of-Course result is not directly comparable to the 2024–2025 Biology All-Grades figure because the years and grade scopes differ.
