History

The Quaboag Regional School District was established in 1966 between the communities of Warren and West Brookfield as a grade 7-12 district and was later expanded in 1988 into a unified PK-12 district. Prior to 1966, all students from Warren and West Brookfield attended Warren High School.

Recently, in a study to find America's best high schools, U.S. News evaluated schools across 49 states plus the District of Columbia and awarded schools gold, silver, and bronze medals based on state proficiency standards, how well they prepare students for college, and other factors. Quaboag was awarded a silver medal, ranked 58th in Massachusetts, and ranked 1,649th nationally in the study, which evaluated more than 22,000 schools.[3]
