Better than 95% of Massachusetts high schools

Summary

Tahanto Regional High is a small regional school in Boylston, a town in central Massachusetts, serving grades 6–12 with 522 students as part of the Berlin-Boylston district. Although that district ranks 59th of 351 statewide, the school itself performs considerably higher, ranking 19th of 353 Massachusetts schools in 2025-2026 — the 95th percentile — the top rank among the nearby comparison schools.

On the 2025-2026 MCAS Next Generation, Tahanto scored well above the state average in every major subject: 55.73% in ELA (state 40.03%), 65.08% in math (state 41.11%), and 68.54% in science (state 40.98%). Grade-10 results are especially strong. Its 83.1% grade-10 ELA proficiency is the highest among nearby schools, ahead of Advanced Math and Science Academy Charter School at 77.94% and Nashoba Regional at 73.5%, and its 80% grade-10 science score also leads the group. Grade-10 math, at 72.86%, is strong but behind AMSA (85.93%), Shrewsbury High School (73.33%), and Algonquin Regional High (73.05%). Middle-grade results are solid but less dominant — 8th-grade ELA is 49.44%, about 7.7 points above the state average, while 8th-grade math and science are stronger.

Graduation outcomes are excellent: 98.3% of students graduate and the dropout rate is 1.7%, though a 6.2% dropout spike in 2022-2023 stands out as a one-year anomaly. The school also posts high statewide ranks for several student groups, including students by gender and special education students; low-income students rank lower than other groups but still at the 84th percentile. Per-student spending of $16,601 is moderate compared with nearby districts, and the student-teacher ratio of 11 is favorable — strong results without the highest resource levels in the area.

Saturday, June 23, 2018

Very poor communication. Admin and staff have an us against them attitude. Poor response to parental issues. Have a tendency to hire teachers that have also gone to school there, not drawing from a wider, more experienced pool. Inflexible and not innovative. Close Quote
