That is its strongest reported rank, improving from 16th in 2024–2025 and 11th in 2023–2024, with 5 stars in every reported year. MCAS Next Generation proficiency is far above state levels in every reported subject.

ELA rose from 81.42 to 84.47 while the state fell from 50.66 to 45.48, widening the school’s advantage from +30.76 to +38.99 points. Science declined from 84.74 to 78.39 but still beat the state by +37.89 points.

Outcomes are strong: the 2024–2025 graduation rate is 97.5% at the school versus 96.0% district-wide, and the dropout rate is 1.6% versus 1.8%. School and district MCAS results are nearly identical, with 2025–2026 differences of only 0.15 to 0.75 points and 2024–2025 differences of 0.90 to 1.53 points. Resource data show a 14.8 student-teacher ratio in 2024–2025 and $15,142 per-student spending in 2020–2021, though no state or district comparison is provided; the spending year is older than the ranking and test-score data. Free/reduced lunch is not provided, so it should be treated as unknown, not 0%. The main caveat is mixed years and grade scopes: 10th-grade MCAS, Biology End of Course, and Biology All Grades rows should not be compared as identical measures. Overall, the record shows a consistently high-performing, top-ranked school that is substantially above state proficiency levels.
