The school year is back in full swing and Boston Magazine has released its annual list of the best high schools in the Greater Boston area.
The magazine ranked 150 schools within, or partially within, the I-495 corridor. The schools were ranked based on criteria including enrollment, class size, student-teacher ratio, 2023 rank, graduation rates, standardized test scores and teacher evaluations.
