Summary

Medway High is a grade 9–12 school in Medway, Massachusetts, serving 622 students in the Medway district, which ranks 54th of 351 Massachusetts districts.

The school ranked 60th of 353 high schools in 2025-26 (83rd percentile, 4 stars) and has usually sat between the 79th and 90th percentile over the past decade. That puts it above most nearby schools but below the region's top performers: Dover-Sherborn Regional High, Hopkinton High, Holliston High, and Ashland High all rank higher. Medway does lead Franklin High, Tri-County Regional Vocational Technical, Millis High School, Hopedale Junior Senior High, Bellingham High School, and Milford High. On 2025-26 MCAS, Medway 10th graders were 60.4% proficient in ELA, 58.94% in Math, 64.38% in Science, and 67.72% in Biology—all comfortably above state rates of 45.48%, 43.73%, 40.5%, and 37.68%. Science and Biology are the school's clearest academic strengths; Franklin is close in ELA and Math but lower in Science and Biology, while Holliston leads in ELA, Math, and Science but trails Medway in Biology.

One item to watch: graduation fell to 94.8% in 2024-25 from the 97%–99% range of prior years, with dropout rising to 4.1%. Medway still outperforms Ashland, Bellingham, and Milford on completion measures but now trails Holliston, Franklin, Dover-Sherborn, Hopkinton, Millis, Hopedale, and Tri-County. Among student groups, low-income students (96th percentile) and special education students (86th percentile) ranked above the school's overall standing in 2025-26, though low-income results have varied year to year. Per-student spending was $16,693 in 2020-21, above several neighbors, while its 13.8 student-teacher ratio is larger than several nearby districts.
