Summary:
Kingston, Rhode Island, has one school in this list: The Compass School, a K–8 school with 217 students. Since no other Kingston school is listed, families have no local school-to-school comparison here; the clearest headline is that Compass’s 2025–26 proficiency rates were above Rhode Island’s in all three reported subjects.
The Compass School is the only local school, so there is no separate top or bottom performer to identify. Its strongest result compared with the state was science: 52.8% of students were proficient, 21.7 percentage points above Rhode Island’s 31.1%. ELA was 50.0% versus 33.1% statewide, a 16.9-point advantage, while math was 45.8% versus 31.9%, a 13.9-point advantage. Grade-level results were also above state rates in every tested grade and subject shown, though the margins varied: the ELA advantage ranged from 1.5 points in grade 3 to 37 points in grade 7.
Results changed unevenly from 2024–25 to 2025–26: ELA rose slightly, from 49.4% to 50.0%, while math declined from 50.6% to 45.8% and science from 66.7% to 52.8%. SchoolDigger’s reported percentile ranking also moved from the 86th percentile in 2023–24 to the 83rd in 2024–25 and the 77th in 2025–26, while its star rating remained four stars. The school reports an 11.4 student-teacher ratio; its 2024–25 free/reduced-lunch rate was 17.97%, and reported per-student spending was $14,353. These figures provide context about the school, but there are no other Kingston schools in this list to compare with them.
