Greenbush Elementary School has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Rhode Island elementary schools, with a ranking between 111-150 out of 166-169 schools over the past 10 years. The school's performance on RICAS (Rhode Island Comprehensive Assessment System) tests is significantly below the state and district averages, with only 28.3% of Greenbush students proficient or better in English Language Arts and 28.6% in Mathematics in 2024-2025, compared to 36.7% and 38.4% for the state, respectively. The school's performance has been declining over the past few years, which is concerning.

These nearby schools also have lower percentages of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, suggesting that Greenbush Elementary School may be facing unique challenges in providing a high-quality education to its students.
