Summary:
The city of West Warwick, Rhode Island is home to 5 schools, including 3 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. The data reveals stark differences in academic performance between these schools, with Greenbush Elementary School and West Warwick High School standing out as the top performers in the district.
Greenbush Elementary ranks 114 out of 166 Rhode Island elementary schools and has the highest proficiency rates in both English Language Arts (30.8%) and Mathematics (19.8%) across all grades compared to the other West Warwick schools. In contrast, John F. Deering Middle School and Wakefield Hills Elementary School struggle with particularly low proficiency rates, well below the state averages.
The West Warwick school district as a whole faces challenges, with high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 44.34% at Greenbush Elementary to 61.46% at John F. Horgan School. This suggests a high level of economic disadvantage among the student populations. However, the data also indicates that some schools, like Greenbush Elementary and West Warwick High, are able to achieve better results, providing a potential roadmap for improvement across the district.
