Summary

Silver Lake Regional High is a public high school in Kingston, Massachusetts, serving 1,026 students in grades 9-12. The school is part of the Silver Lake District, which is ranked 165 out of 348 districts in the state and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Silver Lake Regional High has consistently ranked in the top half of Massachusetts high schools over the past decade, indicating a stable and effective educational program. The school's performance on MCAS assessments is mixed compared to the state average, with strengths in Mathematics and Science but lower scores in English Language Arts and Physics. Compared to nearby schools, Silver Lake's academic performance is generally in the middle range, outperforming Carver Middle/High School and Map Academy Charter School, but lagging behind higher-performing schools like Duxbury High and Rising Tide Charter Public School.

Silver Lake Regional High has maintained a strong four-year graduation rate, ranging from 96.2% to 97.4% over the past few years, and a relatively low dropout rate. However, the school's performance on MCAS assessments varies significantly across different student subgroups, with particularly low performance for special education students. This highlights the need for targeted interventions and support to address these achievement gaps. Despite these challenges, the school's commitment to staffing and resources, as evidenced by its relatively low student-to-teacher ratio and increasing per-student spending, suggests a dedication to providing a quality educational experience for its diverse student population.
