Academic Performance & Context
Uxbridge’s four-year graduation rate was 87.8%. MCAS results, graduation rates and accountability data are published and updated each year by DESE. Because these change annually, this guide links to the live state profile rather than reprinting numbers that quickly go stale.
One number here is a civics fact rather than an education one. Per-pupil spending is not set in a school building and it is not set by the Superintendent. The Superintendent proposes a budget, the elected School Committee approves it, and then the whole thing goes to open Town Meeting, where every registered voter in Uxbridge can vote on it. There is no other room. If you want to change what the number above says, that is the meeting to be at, and you can be a member of it the year you turn eighteen.
