High Schools in Hull

Hull has exactly one public high school: Hull High, located at 180 Main Street in Hull, Massachusetts. It serves grades 8 through 12 with 278 students and is part of the Hull district. Because there is only one high school in the area, families do not have to choose between competing local high schools — Hull High is the sole option, and the question is simply how well it is performing.

The school has been improving. Hull High rose from 158th of 349 schools in 2024–25 to 101st of 353 in 2025–26, a 57-position gain that moved it from the 55th to the 71st percentile and from 3 stars to 4 stars. Its strongest results are in 10th grade: ELA proficiency is 67.35% compared with 45.48% statewide, a 21.87-point advantage, and 10th-grade science is 52.08% versus 40.50% statewide, 11.58 points above. Tenth-grade math is slightly above the state at 44.90% versus 43.73%. Graduation outcomes are also solid, with a 96.8% graduation rate and a 3.2% dropout rate, both close to the district's figures.

Mathematics is the clear weak spot. Eighth-grade math is 29.09% versus 41.67% statewide, a 12.58-point gap, and the "All Grades" math figure matches at 29.09% versus 41.11%. In 2024–25, All Grades math was just 15.56%, 25.18 points below the state. Eighth-grade civics is also consistently below the state at 32.73% versus 39.77%. Parents should note that the 2025–26 "All Grades" ELA, math, and science numbers are identical to the 8th-grade numbers, suggesting the aggregate reflects the 8th-grade cohort. The student-teacher ratio is a favorable 8.8, and per-student spending was $24,966 in 2020–21. Free/reduced lunch data is not available, so it should not be read as a weakness.
