Summary

Madison Park Technical Vocational High School is a public high school serving grades 9-12 in Roxbury, MA, with an enrollment of 1,058 students. The school is part of the Boston Public School District, which is ranked 298 out of 348 districts in Massachusetts and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite its higher per-student spending and lower student-teacher ratios compared to nearby high-performing schools, Madison Park Technical Vocational High School consistently ranks in the bottom 10% of Massachusetts high schools, with particularly low performance on MCAS assessments, especially in science. The school's 4-year graduation rate has ranged from 73.6% to 81.0% over the past 5 years, lower than the state and district averages, and its dropout rate has been as high as 16.0%.

The stark contrast in performance between Madison Park Technical Vocational High School and nearby high-performing schools, such as Boston Latin School, Boston Latin Academy, and O'Bryant School of Math & Science, which all rank in the top 25% of Massachusetts high schools, highlights the need for the Boston Public School District to address the underlying factors contributing to the school's persistent underperformance.
