Summary:
ZIP code 02045 covers Hull, Massachusetts, and contains exactly one high school: Hull High, a public school at 180 Main Street serving grades 8–12 with 278 students, making it a small school with small grade-level cohorts.
Hull High has shown a clear upward trend in rankings. In 2025–2026 it ranks 101 out of 353 schools, placing it in the 71st percentile with 4 stars, up from 158 out of 349 and 155 out of 348 in the two prior years, when it sat at the 55th percentile with 3 stars. That is a gain of roughly 54–57 rank positions and 16 percentile points over two years. The Hull district currently ranks 103 out of 351, also in the 71st percentile with 4 stars. Graduation and dropout outcomes are strong: the 2024–2025 graduation rate was 96.8%, above the district's 95.3%, while the dropout rate was 3.2%, essentially in line with the district's 3.1%. The student-teacher ratio of 8.8 in 2024–2025 is favorable, and per-student spending was $24,966 in 2020–2021, a notably high figure, though that data is older.
Academically, results are mixed and volatile. In 2025–2026, 10th-grade ELA proficiency was 67.35%, more than 21 percentage points above the state's 45.48%, and 10th-grade science was 52.08%, about 11.6 points above the state. Tenth-grade math was 44.90%, slightly above the state's 43.73%. Weaker areas include 8th-grade math at 29.09% versus the state's 41.67%, all-grades math at 29.09% versus 41.11%, and 8th-grade civics at 32.73% versus 39.77%. Year-to-year swings were large: all-grades ELA fell about 20.7 points while math rose 13.5 points and science rose 14.4 points. Notably, the 2025–2026 all-grades figures for ELA, math, and science exactly match the 8th-grade results, so 10th-grade rows better reflect high-school performance. The free/reduced-price lunch percentage is blank and should not be read as 0%.
