Summary

Chicopee High is a public high school in Chicopee, MA, serving grades 9–12 with 918 students as part of the Chicopee district. In 2025–2026 it ranked 311th of 353 Massachusetts high schools (12th percentile) with a 1-star rating, and it has been a 1-star school in every year of available data, never rising above the 23rd percentile.

Academically, 2025–2026 MCAS proficiency was below both the district and the state: ELA 25.24%, Mathematics 13.4%, Science 15.38%, and Biology 11.11%. The same-district peer Chicopee Comprehensive High School outperformed it in every subject — 37.93% ELA, 29.23% Math, 28.93% Science, and 22.34% Biology — and ranked higher overall (241st, 32nd percentile, 2 stars). Roger L. Putnam Vocational Technical Academy and The Springfield Renaissance School an Expeditionary Learning also posted higher results in these subjects, while Springfield Central High, Springfield High School of Science and Technology, and Baystate Academy Charter Public School generally trailed Chicopee High in most subjects.

Completion outcomes are a concern: the 2024–2025 graduation rate was 85.7% and the dropout rate 12.2%, compared with 93.7% and 4.2% at Chicopee Comprehensive, 98.8% and 1.2% at Putnam, and 98.7% and 1.3% at Renaissance. Results for student subgroups vary widely — English learners and, more recently, special education students show relative strength, while several other subgroups rank near the bottom of the state. The student–teacher ratio of 10.5 is favorable compared with many nearby schools, and per-student spending was $16,258 in 2020–2021, on the lower end locally.
