Summary:
Medway is served by a single public high school, Medway High, which teaches grades 9–12 to 622 students at 88 Summer Street in the Medway district. Because there is only one high school in the area, there are no cross-school comparisons to make — instead, the useful question is how this school stacks up against the district and the state. The Medway district ranks 54th of 351 in Massachusetts with an 85th percentile and 4 stars.
Medway High carries a 4-star rating in every year on record. In 2025-2026 it ranked 60th of 353 high schools statewide — the 83rd percentile, or roughly the top 17%. That is an improvement from 72nd the year before, though still short of its 49th-place showing in 2023-2024. Test proficiency is above the state in every reported MCAS subject and year, with school-versus-state gaps ranging from about 11.7 points in 2024-2025 Mathematics to 30.04 points in 2025-2026 Biology. Science and Biology are clear strengths: 2024-2025 Science 10th grade reached 73.53% against the state's 45.89%. The school also matches or slightly exceeds its own district in nearly every subject.
Parents should note two mixed trends. ELA 10th grade slipped from 65.08% to 60.4% and Science 10th grade fell from 73.53% to 64.38% between 2024-2025 and 2025-2026, even though both remain well above state levels; Mathematics rose from 56.3% to 58.94%. Graduation and dropout outcomes are favorable — 94.8% graduating and a 4.1% dropout rate, better than the district's 93.2% and 4.5%. The student-teacher ratio is 13.8, and spending was $16,693 per student in 2020-2021. The free/reduced lunch figure is unknown, so economic context cannot be assessed here.
