Summary

University Pk Campus School is a small Worcester public school serving 233 students in grades 7–12, within the Worcester district, which ranks 304th of 351 districts statewide. The school ranks 194th of 353 schools in 2025–2026 — the 45th percentile, 2 stars — up from the 31st percentile in 2024–2025, 33rd in 2023–2024, 28th in 2022–2023 and 25th in 2021–2022.

The school runs at two speeds. Tenth-grade MCAS results are strong — ELA 45.71%, Math 42.42%, Science 32.35%, Biology 26.67% — all above the Worcester district (25.70%, 20.20%, 19.25%, 20.14%), with ELA essentially matching the state (45.48%). That 10th-grade ELA score is the highest among the comparison schools, ahead of Doherty Memorial High (34.31%), Burncoat Senior High (27.78%), South High Community (27.27%), Worcester Technical High (24.93%), North High (19.55%), Claremont Academy (12.12%), Leicester High (36.47%) and Auburn Senior High (38.07%); its 10th-grade Math score is also the highest of that group. Middle school results drag the averages down: 7th-grade ELA 18.60%, 8th-grade ELA 17.95%, 7th-grade Math 9.52% and 8th-grade Science 15.38%, all below district and state. Because the school spans grades 7–12, its all-grade scores (ELA 18.29%, Math 16.05%, Science 15.38%) understate the high school.

Completion outcomes stand out: a 95.1% graduation rate in 2024–2025 versus 85.5% district-wide, and a 0.0% dropout rate versus 8.5%. Only Worcester Technical High (96.7%) and Ma Academy for Math and Science School (100.0%) graduate a higher share locally. The school is also far smaller than nearby high schools — 233 students versus 1,800 at South High Community — with a lower student-teacher ratio (11.4) and higher per-student spending ($17,258) than most. Some student groups rank above its overall 45th percentile, including low-income students (59th) and Hispanic students (62nd).
