High Schools in Lenox

Lenox has one public high school in this data set: Lenox Memorial High, part of the Lenox district in Lenox, MA. It enrolls 439 students and, though listed as a high school, serves grades 6–12, so its MCAS results cover middle-school grades alongside high-school grades. For families, that means the numbers below reflect a combined middle and high school experience.

Lenox Memorial High is a top-decile Massachusetts high school. Its 2025–26 rank history places it 35th of 353 schools, in the 90th percentile with 5 stars — its best showing in the three years reported, improving from 48th of 349 in 2024–25. In 2025–26 MCAS Next Generation results, the all-grade core average was 61.40% proficient, compared with 40.71% statewide, and the school outperformed the state in every reported MCAS area. Tenth-grade results are exceptional: ELA at 89.06%, science at 74.60%, and math at 71.43%, all far above state averages. All-grade math rose 11.24 percentage points year over year and science rose 11.41 points, while ELA slipped only slightly, from 63.24% to 62.09%, and stayed well above state and district levels.

Outcome metrics are solid: a 95.0% graduation rate, a 3.3% dropout rate, and a 7.5 student–teacher ratio in 2024–25, plus $22,567 per-student spending in 2020–21 — though that spending figure is dated and the free/reduced lunch percentage is unavailable, so socioeconomic context can’t be fully assessed. Notably, Lenox Memorial High generally mirrors a very strong district, sitting slightly above it in most subjects but marginally below in a few 10th- and 8th-grade results. Future watch items include whether the math and science gains hold, whether ELA rebounds, and whether the school keeps its 5-star, top-decile ranking.
