High Schools in Revere

The city of Revere, Massachusetts is home to two high schools: Revere High and CityLab Innovation High School. While Revere High has a significantly larger enrollment of 2,098 students, CityLab Innovation High School has a much smaller student body of just 109 students. Both schools, however, face similar challenges, with low statewide rankings, below-average graduation rates, and high dropout rates.

Academically, the two Revere high schools perform significantly below the state average on MCAS Next Generation assessments, with proficiency rates ranging from 22.43% to 36.36% compared to the state average of 44.6% to 50.66%. Interestingly, CityLab Innovation High School, despite spending nearly twice as much per student ($26,441) as Revere High ($14,138), does not demonstrate significantly better academic outcomes. The lower student-teacher ratio of 7.9 at CityLab Innovation High School, compared to 13.4 at Revere High, also does not appear to translate into substantially improved test scores or other academic measures.

The data suggests that the Revere school district faces significant challenges in providing quality education to its high school students. Both Revere High and CityLab Innovation High School struggle with low statewide rankings, poor academic performance, and high dropout rates, indicating the need for comprehensive strategies to address these issues and improve educational outcomes for Revere students.
