In the most recent U.S. News and World Report annual ranking of the best public high schools in each state, Monomoy Regional High School has risen to number 76 of the 351 Massachusetts schools ranked, improving from number 83 in the 2023 analysis, and was one of only five Cape Cod high schools in the top 100.
Schools were ranked based on six key indicators: college readiness (20%), state assessment proficiency (20%), state assessment performance (20%), underserved student performance (10%), college curriculum breadth (10%), and graduation rate (10%).
“This acknowledgment is a reflection of our dedicated educators delivering consistent, high-quality instruction each day,” said Monomoy Regional High School Principal Jennifer Police, “as well as our focus on providing equitable access for all students.”
“I am incredibly proud of the innovation and commitment of our teachers, staff, and administrators, who work tirelessly to ensure that each and every one of our students has opportunities to grow and learn,” said Monomoy Superintendent Dr. Scott Carpenter. “We are also lucky to have supportive families and communities that recognize the importance of public education. I am pleased, although not surprised, that this is being recognized on a national level.”

The Nauset Skating Team is an individual Figure Skating team with Monomoy and Nauset students who compete against other high school teams on the East Coast. This year, we have competed in New Hampshire, Orleans, MA (twice), Rhode Island, Maine, and Vermont. At the Easterns event, we competed in Vermont for US Figure Skating this past weekend and placed 1st with 190 points out of 11 teams on the East Coast. At this competition, there was also a contest for the best team spirit, such as cheering each skater on whether they are on your team or a different team you are competing against, and we also won 1st place in this contest. At a high school competition, we compete in events such as a solo free skate, a solo character showcase (showcasing a character from a show or movie), a duet showcase, a trio showcase, solo dance (an opportunity to demonstrate artistry, expression, and musicality while skating dance skills), and team maneuvers (A team event where each skater at that level go out on the ice together and have specific skills that they showcase and get judged on).
In March, Mikenzie Eldredge tested and passed her Pre-Gold Moves In the Field test with US Figure Skating, leaving her one more test until she passes all of the tests for US Figure Skating. That same day Dori Walsh tested and passed her Silver Moves In the Field test leaving her two more tests until she passed all of the tests for US Figure Skating.
MRHS students on the team include: Victoria Letendre (Senior), Mikenzie Eldredge (Junior), Dorothy [Dori] Walsh (Junior), Addisyn Insana (Freshman), Corinne Pina (Freshman)
Students in Ms. Flint's biology classes spent their last unit figuring out how the body maintains homeostasis. As part of this phenomenon-based unit, students were able to analyze data and apply their background knowledge to determine why a marathon runner may have fallen into a coma after her race. In order to develop a better understanding of basic anatomy, students took part in a rat dissection to further investigate the structures that allow animals to maintain homeostasis.
