Summary:
Zip code 01230 in Great Barrington, Massachusetts, has exactly one listed high school—Monument Mt Regional High—which serves grades 9–12 as part of the Berkshire Hills district. With 431 students, it is the only local high school, so parents cannot compare it with another public high school in this zip code; the most useful comparisons are to its district, to Massachusetts statewide results, and to its own prior years. Its 2025–2026 school rank is 129 of 353 schools, the 63rd percentile with 3 stars, while the district ranks 142 of 351 districts, the 60th percentile with 3 stars.
Academically, Science is the clear bright spot. In 2025–2026, 10th-grade Science proficiency was 56.1% at the school versus 40.5% statewide, a gap of +15.6 percentage points; in 2024–2025, it was 61.84% versus 45.89%, a +15.95-point gap. Biology also outperformed the state in both reported years. English Language Arts had a dramatic rebound: 10th-grade ELA rose from 40.51% in 2024–2025—10.15 points below the state—to 50.55% in 2025–2026, which was 5.07 points above the state. That is a 10.04-point year-over-year increase while the state declined. Mathematics remains the main gap: 33.71% proficient in 2025–2026, 10.02 points below the state’s 43.73%.
Although the school outperformed its district in every reported test category in both years, ranking recovered only partially: it went from 115 of 348 in 2023–2024 to 182 of 349 in 2024–2025, then to 129 of 353 in 2025–2026, so it is still slightly below its 2023–2024 percentile. Graduation and dropout rates are close to district averages: 87.1% graduation and 9.3% dropout at the school, versus 86.5% and 9.2% for the district in 2024–2025. The student-teacher ratio is 9.2, and per-student spending was $23,375 in 2020–2021; free/reduced lunch is not reported, so socioeconomic context is unknown.
