Massachusetts High School Test Scores
See how a Massachusetts high-school MCAS score (grade 10 ELA and Math, Biology, Introductory Physics) compares to the school, district, and the whole state, using official Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education data.

Who is counted: Grade 10 ELA and Math count 10th graders who took the spring test; retests are not counted. Students take a high school science test in grade 9 or 10, so a year's Biology or Introductory Physics group mixes 9th and 10th graders; DESE's reporting rules for 2022 to 2025 count only students taking that test for the first time. In 2021 the science tests were open only to 9th graders and former students. Two older tests, Chemistry and Technology and Engineering, were last given in 2023 and few students took them. Students who took the alternate assessment (MCAS-Alt) are counted in the achievement levels but not in the average score, and a school counts only students enrolled there since October.
