Summary:
The Tantasqua area in Fiskdale, Massachusetts has two high schools serving grades 9–12, both located at 319 Brookfield Rd: Tantasqua Regional Senior High, with 632 students, and Tantasqua Regional Vocational, with 542 students. Together they enroll 1,174 students. The district is ranked 155 of 351 (56th percentile, 3 stars), but that single rating hides a wide split between the two schools.
Tantasqua Regional Senior High is the academic standout, earning 4 stars and ranking 79 of 353 (78th percentile) in 2025–2026 after placing 61st the prior year. It outperformed both the district and the state in most 2025–2026 MCAS subjects, including 10th-grade Math (65.91% proficient), 10th-grade Science (52.63%), and Biology End of Course (94.44%, over 56 points above the state). Its graduation rate is 95.0%, dropout rate 1.9%, student/teacher ratio 7.6, and per-student spending $16,553 (2020–2021).
Tantasqua Regional Vocational is the completion standout: a 99.2% graduation rate and 0.0% dropout rate, both better than Senior High’s and the district’s. Its ranking is improving (231st to 197th over three years) but remains below median at 2 stars, and its MCAS proficiency trails Senior High in every 2025–2026 subject, though Math is above the state average. Note two caveats: free/reduced lunch data is missing for both schools, spending is from 2020–2021, and Vocational’s reported 66.5 student/teacher ratio looks like a reporting anomaly worth verifying. Biology is a shared strength and Physics a shared weakness.
