Shrewsbury High School Ranks High on National List

Shrewsbury is among area high schools ranked by USNews.com.

"U.S. News partnered with the Washington, D.C.-based American Institutes for Research (AIR), which implemented U.S. News's rankings methodology. To determine the Best High Schools national rankings, schools were first analyzed at the state level in terms of how well students in each school performed on state assessments, taking into account the test scores of disadvantaged students (low-income, Hispanic, and black), who tend to score lower on tests," reported U.S. News.

Other area schools that ranked in the top 40 include Hopkinton (3), Algonquin (25) and Westborough (35).
