Woonsocket

Summary:

The Woonsocket school district in Rhode Island consists of 9 schools, including 6 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, and 1 high school. The district as a whole faces significant challenges, with most schools performing well below state averages on standardized tests. However, a few standout schools, such as Leo A. Savoie School and Bernon Heights School, demonstrate that there are pockets of success within the district.

Leo A. Savoie School stands out as the highest-performing school in the district, with the highest proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science across all grades. Bernon Heights School is another high-performing elementary school, with the second-highest proficiency rates in English Language Arts and the highest in Mathematics. Globe Park School also had above-average English Language Arts proficiency rates in the district.

While the Woonsocket school district faces significant challenges, with low proficiency rates and high rates of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, the performance of the top-performing schools suggests that there may be opportunities to learn from their success and apply those strategies more broadly across the district. Addressing the impacts of poverty on student learning will be crucial in improving outcomes for all students in Woonsocket.
