Summary

Claremont Academy is a public school at 15 Claremont Street in Worcester, MA, serving 474 students in grades 7–12 as part of the Worcester district, which ranks 304 of 351 districts statewide. Claremont itself has ranked in the bottom decile of Massachusetts high schools in every year shown: 338 of 353 (4th percentile, 0 stars) in 2025–2026, following 314 of 349 (10th percentile, 1 star) in 2024–2025, 317 of 348 (0 stars) in 2023–2024, and 325 of 347 (0 stars) in 2022–2023.

Test scores and completion data are the biggest concerns. In 2025–2026, 10th-grade MCAS proficiency was 12.12% in ELA, 4.69% in math, and 5.77% in science — below every listed Worcester comprehensive high school, including North High. Math is the sharpest weak spot: 4.69% is less than one-quarter of the district's 20.2% and roughly one-ninth of the state's 43.73%. The graduation rate was 80.4% in 2024–2025, below the district's 85.5%, and the dropout rate was 16.7%, roughly double the district's 8.5% and the highest in the entire nearby comparison set. Recent trends are troubling: graduation fell from 89.3% in 2022–2023 to 84.2% in 2023–2024 to 80.4% in 2024–2025, while dropout rose from 8.3% to 13.2% to 16.7%. All-grade proficiency in 2025–2026 was 11.26% in ELA, 10.53% in math, and 9.09% in science.

One bright spot is the school's English Language Learner subgroup, which ranked 62 of 105 (41st percentile) in 2025–2026 and 33 of 86 (62nd percentile) in 2023–2024 — far above the school's overall rank, though other subgroups remain low. Nearby comparisons are striking: University Pk Campus School, just 0.63 miles away, is also in Worcester and serves grades 7–12, yet ranked 194 of 353 (45th percentile) and posted a 95.1% graduation rate with a 0.0% dropout rate in 2024–2025. Per-student spending at Claremont was $15,110 in 2020–2021, lower than most Worcester high schools compared, and the student-teacher ratio in 2024–2025 was 13.0.
