Summary:
Frontier Regional School is the sole high school serving the Frontier region, educating students in grades 7-12. With an enrollment of 606 students, the school has a predominantly White student population (83.33%), along with smaller percentages of Hispanic (6.27%), Asian (3.63%), and African American (1.65%) students.
Frontier Regional's academic performance has been mixed, with 10th-grade proficiency rates in Mathematics (51.52%) and Science (49.43%) slightly above the state averages, but English Language Arts (56%) falling below. The school's statewide ranking has fluctuated in recent years, ranging from 65th out of 342 Massachusetts high schools in 2021-2022 to 172nd out of 348 in 2023-2024, despite maintaining a 3-4 out of 5 star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's four-year graduation rate is 93.4%, and its dropout rate is 2.2%.
With adequate financial and staffing resources, including a per-student spending of $18,213 and a student-teacher ratio of 10.9, Frontier Regional has the potential to address areas for improvement, such as its declining statewide ranking and below-average English Language Arts proficiency. Enhancing curriculum and instruction, as well as fostering a more diverse and inclusive learning environment, could help the school better prepare its students for success.
