Summary
Abington High is a public high school in Abington, Massachusetts, serving grades 9–12 with 530 students, and in 2025–26 it ranked 125th of 353 Massachusetts high schools — the 65th percentile, with 3 stars. That is noticeably stronger than the Abington district overall, which ranked 195th of 351 (44th percentile, 2 stars), making the high school a relative bright spot locally.
The school is in a clear improvement phase. It sat at the 32nd percentile in 2023–24 and the 39th in 2022–23, then climbed to the 50th in 2024–25 and the 65th in 2025–26 — its best showing since 2016–17. On 2025–26 10th grade MCAS, ELA came in at 51.33 (above the state's 45.48), science at 52.73 (12.23 points above the state and second locally only to Hanover High), and biology at 42.22 (above the state's 37.68). Math is the weak spot at 42.11, just under the state's 43.73, though still ahead of most nearby comprehensive high schools such as Whitman Hanson Regional, Weymouth High School, Rockland Senior High, Holbrook Middle High School, and Avon Middle High School.
Subgroup results have shifted sharply upward: special education students moved from the 2nd percentile in 2023–24 to the 74th percentile (4 stars) in 2025–26, and low-income students from the 20th to the 54th. Hispanic students, at the 29th percentile and 1 star, are the exception worth watching. The 2024–25 graduation rate was 92.4% with a 4.6% dropout rate — middle of the local pack, ahead of Rockland, Weymouth, and Whitman-Hanson but behind Hanover, South Shore Vocational Technical High, and Holbrook. Spending was $14,887 per student in 2020–21, less than several neighbors, with a favorable 11.3 student–teacher ratio — a school getting solid results without top-tier spending.
