Summary:
ZIP code 02651 (North Eastham, MA) contains exactly one school: Nauset Regional High, a grades 9–12 high school with 737 students in the Nauset district. There are no elementary, middle, or alternative schools here, so this is a one-school ZIP and comparisons are best made against the district and the state of Massachusetts rather than against other local schools.
Academically, the picture is mixed. Math is the clearest strength: 48.92% of students were proficient in 2025–2026 versus 43.73% statewide, and 47.80% in 2024–2025 versus 44.60% statewide. ELA was strong in 2024–2025 at 53.94%, above both the district and the state, but fell to 43.09% in 2025–2026 — 2.39 points below the state. Science also dropped sharply, from 47.74% to 34.68%, putting it 5.82 points below the state in 2025–2026. Physics was below the state in both reported contexts: 40.91% versus 46.58% in 2025–2026, and 35.06% versus 44.25% in 2024–2025. Notably, school results track Nauset district figures within about half a percentage point on nearly every test, suggesting this school largely drives or closely mirrors district high-school performance.
Completion outcomes are a real strength: a 96.1% graduation rate and a 1.0% dropout rate in 2024–2025, both matching the district. The student-teacher ratio is a favorable 9.8, and per-student spending was $22,287 in 2020–2021. Statewide, the school sits in the middle-to-upper-middle range — 3 stars, ranked 162 of 353 (54th percentile) in 2025–2026, 144 of 349 (59th) in 2024–2025, and 149 of 348 (57th) in 2023–2024. One caveat for parents: the free/reduced lunch percentage is not reported, so socioeconomic context is unavailable.
