Summary

Mohawk Trail Regional School is a public school in the rural hilltown community of Shelburne Falls, Massachusetts, serving grades 7 through 12 with about 316 students as part of the Mohawk Trail district.

The school's statewide ranking has been unusually volatile. It placed 277th of 348 (20th percentile) in 2023-2024, climbed to 102nd of 349 (71st percentile) in 2024-2025, and now sits at 157th of 353 (56th percentile) for 2025-2026. With only 316 students, small class cohorts can make year-to-year swings look larger than they are, so a single year's number deserves caution. Regionally, that puts it in the middle of the pack: behind Frontier Regional (71st percentile), roughly even with Pioneer Valley Regional and Four Rivers Charter Public School (both 53rd), and ahead of Charles McCann Vocational Technical, Turners Fall High, Franklin County Technical, Hoosac Valley High School, Drury High, and Greenfield High.

Test results look like two different schools in one. All-grade proficiency on the 2025-2026 MCAS was 23.31% in English language arts, 17.78% in math, and 14.49% in science, all well below statewide figures near 40%. Grades 7 and 8 are the main drag, with 8th-grade science at 14.49% and 8th-grade civics at 26.09%. High school results are much stronger: 10th-grade science proficiency was 50%, above the state's 40.5% and higher than every nearby school with reported data, and Biology End-of-Course was 43.33% versus the state's 37.68%. The 2024-2025 graduation rate was 88.1%, and the dropout rate has fallen steadily from 11.9% in 2020-2021 to 4.8% in 2024-2025, better than most nearby schools. Mohawk Trail also spent $26,719 per student in 2020-2021, the highest in its comparison group, with a 9.4 student-teacher ratio in 2024-2025 — yet its overall results remain mid-to-low regionally.
