Summary

Fenway High School is a Boston district high school at 67 Alleghany St in Roxbury, MA, serving roughly 362 students in grades 9–12. Its overall standing is low: in 2025–2026 it ranks 299th of 353 Massachusetts high schools — the 15th percentile, with 1 star — and its rank history shows no sustained upward trend, with most recent years in the bottom quartile (12th percentile in 2024–2025, 26th in 2023–2024, 13th in 2022–2023). The Boston district as a whole ranks 299th of 351, also at the 15th percentile with 1 star.

The most encouraging news for families is persistence: Fenway's 2024–2025 graduation rate of 86.8% beats the district's 81.3%, and its dropout rate of 2.6% is far below the district's 8.8% and third-lowest among nearby schools. Boston Latin School (99.0% graduation, 0.3% dropout), O'Bryant School of Math & Science (98.2%, 1.1%) and Boston Latin Academy (98.9%, 0.4%) are far ahead, and Edward M. Kennedy Academy for Health Careers: A Horace Mann (91.5%) also graduates more students. But Fenway outpaces Roxbury Preparatory Charter School (85.6% graduation, 12.6% dropout), Dearborn STEM Academy (83.9%, 9.7%), Madison Park Technical Vocational High School (80.7%, 9.8%), Greater Egleston High School (53.8%) and Boston Day and Evening Academy Charter School (21.5%).

Academically, 2025–2026 10th-grade MCAS proficiency trails both district and state in every subject: ELA 29.41% (district 32.74%, state 45.48%), math 22.35% (33.27%, 43.73%), science 13.51% (27.28%, 40.5%), and physics 9.21% (17.17%, 46.58%; Boston Arts Academy posted 27.1%). Scores swing widely — 10th-grade math reached 50% in 2023–2024 before falling to 24.73% and 22.35% — and individual student groups have ranged from top-quartile to bottom-quartile results year to year. Fenway spends $25,858 per student (2020–2021) with a student–teacher ratio of 11.7, more spending and smaller classes than the nearby exam schools, but that has not translated into higher proficiency in the available data.
