Eden Park School ranks 120 th of 166 Rhode Island elementary schools. SchoolDigger rates this school 1 star out of 5.

Summary:

Eden Park School is an elementary school in Cranston, Rhode Island, serving 242 students from kindergarten to 5th grade. The school is part of the Cranston School District, which is ranked 32 out of 60 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Eden Park School consistently ranks in the bottom half of Rhode Island elementary schools, with proficiency rates in RICAS English Language Arts and Mathematics that are significantly lower than the Cranston district and state averages. In contrast, the nearby Woodridge School and Garden City School have significantly higher proficiency rates, ranking in the top 100 schools in the state. This may be due to the higher percentage of economically disadvantaged students at Eden Park School, as well as the relatively high student-teacher ratio compared to the nearby higher-performing schools.

The data suggests that Eden Park School could benefit from targeted interventions and resource allocation to address the needs of its student population, such as additional support for economically disadvantaged students and efforts to reduce the student-teacher ratio. Analyzing the successful practices and strategies employed by the higher-performing nearby schools could provide valuable insights for improving Eden Park School's academic outcomes.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
