Summary:

ZIP code 01749 is home to a single public high school — Hudson High, part of the Hudson district — serving grades 8 through 12 with 784 students, which means its reported results combine middle-school-grade and high-school-grade MCAS tests.

Hudson High's strongest results come from its upper grades. In 2025–2026, 10th graders scored 50.77% proficient in ELA, 45.31% in math, and 52.14% in science — all above the state, with science 11.64 points above. Biology End of Course came in at 44.27%, 6.59 points above state. The school's state ranking is climbing: from 185th of 348 (2 stars) in 2023–2024 to 122nd of 353 (3 stars) in 2025–2026, a 63-position gain. Graduation is 88.7% versus the district's 87.4%, and dropout is 5.9% versus 6.3%. The student-teacher ratio is a low 10.1, and spending was $19,597 per student in 2020–2021.

The weaker side is grade 8 and all-grade math. Eighth-grade results fall below state in ELA (30.51% vs 41.70%), math (28.16% vs 41.67%), science (33.33% vs 38.93%), and civics (33.72% vs 39.77%). All-grade math is 12.95 points below state, though it improved 7.81 points year over year. Notably, the all-grade ELA, math, and science figures exactly match the 8th-grade figures, so the all-grade numbers appear driven by that cohort rather than the whole school. Free/reduced lunch data is not available.
