Summary

Hollis-Brookline High School is a public school for about 745 students in grades 9–12 in Hollis, a suburban southern New Hampshire community, and part of the highly rated Hollis-Brookline Cooperative School District. The school ranks 10th among 89 New Hampshire high schools for 2025–2026 and has remained among the state’s top 12 schools in every reported year. Its 95% graduation rate and 0% dropout rate are well above state averages, suggesting that most students successfully complete high school.

Academically, reading is the school’s clearest strength: 88% of students were proficient on the latest state reading assessment, compared with 55% statewide. That result is higher than at nearby comprehensive schools such as Souhegan Coop High School (81%), Milford High School (64%), and Merrimack High School (66%). Mathematics is also strong at 59% proficiency, well above the 44% state rate and higher than every nearby comprehensive school reported here. SAT results are similarly impressive, with 59% proficient in math and 88% in reading. The school also ranked first statewide for special education student effectiveness in the latest three reported years.

Science is the main area parents may want to investigate: 50% of students were proficient, above the state’s 38% but below the district’s 60% and Souhegan Coop High School’s 73%. The recent decline from 56% merits attention, although the result still exceeds most nearby schools. Compared with the specialized Academy for Science and Design Charter (H), which ranks first statewide, Hollis-Brookline is a more typical comprehensive high school. Overall, it offers a strong combination of academics, graduation success, low dropout rates, and support for diverse learning needs.

Open Quote As a parent I found this school to be a huge disappointment. Incompetent and lazy teachers and guidance staff, except for a select few decent teachers this school is more concerned with reaching quota and politics than actually helping students succeed. The current principal being useless and dismissive. Be cautious with the 'special education' label that they push. Only a small select group of students actually get the help promised. They talk a good game and will promise you the world but in the end they will take the absolute easiest and laziest way around things to the point of actually doing nothing at all to help your child yet still receiving the government grants for their "special education" program. In other words, fraud. Their specialty is bragging on the achievements of already naturally high achieving students and taking credit whilst leaving all others to flounder and struggle. I found this to be an oppressive like atmosphere with the majority of teachers being lazy and devoid of any real teaching ability. So happy to be done with this place.
