Summary:
ZIP code 01028 is home to a single high school, East Longmeadow High, which serves grades 9–12 with 753 students as part of the East Longmeadow district. Because there is only one high school in this ZIP code, there are no local peer schools to compare it against; the best yardsticks are the district and statewide averages. The record covers district and school rankings, three years of rank history, graduation and dropout rates, MCAS Next Generation proficiency, student–teacher ratio and per-student spending, though free/reduced lunch status is not available.
East Longmeadow High's clearest strength is science: in 2025–2026, 10th-grade Science was 58.99% proficient against 40.5% statewide, about 18.5 points higher, and Biology End-of-Course was 52.04% versus 37.68% statewide, about 14.4 points higher. Math also beat the state at 52.25% versus 43.73%, while ELA was essentially at the state average (45.81% vs 45.48%). The school ranked 98 of 353 in 2025–2026 — the 72nd percentile with 4 stars — above the East Longmeadow district's 161 of 351, or 54th percentile with 3 stars. Graduation is very high at 98.3% (district 97.2%) and dropout is low at 1.2% (district 1.1%). The student–teacher ratio is 9.6, and spending was $15,821 per student in 2020–2021.
A few caveats matter. 10th-grade Science fell from 63.91% in 2024–2025 to 58.99% in 2025–2026, about 4.9 points, though it remained far above the state. ELA has hovered near average — 0.09 points below the state in 2024–2025 and 0.33 points above in 2025–2026. Ranking dipped to 118 of 349 and 3 stars in 2024–2025 before recovering, but is still below the 2023–2024 mark of 86 of 348. The spending figure is from 2020–2021 and should not be tied to current outcomes, and with no free/reduced lunch data, socioeconomic context is unknown rather than a positive or negative signal.
