Neighborhood

Lower Washington-Mount Hope is a walkable neighborhood about eight miles south of Boston via Interstate 93 or public transit.

Along with residential neighborhoods, a few shops and eateries can be found in town along American Legion Highway.

School data provided by The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
