Summary:
Warren, Rhode Island, has one listed elementary school, Hugh Cole School, serving prekindergarten through grade 5 in the Bristol Warren district. In 2025–2026, Hugh Cole’s all-grade proficiency was 44.3% in English language arts (ELA), 41.0% in math and 48.3% in science; each result was above the state rate. Its margins over the state were 11.2 percentage points in ELA, 9.1 in math and 17.2 in science. The most important takeaway is that Hugh Cole exceeded state proficiency in all three subjects, with its largest advantage in science.
There is no local top- or bottom-performing school to compare: Hugh Cole is the only elementary school in Warren’s list. Its results were below the district’s figures in all three subjects, however: by 3.3 points in ELA, 2.4 in math and 6.2 in science. Grade-level results show a more uneven picture: grade 3 ELA was 1.9 points below the state and grade 3 math was 0.5 points below, while grade 4 ELA was 17.6 points above the state and grade 5 math was 18.2 points above. SchoolDigger rated Hugh Cole four stars and ranked it 50th of 163 Rhode Island elementary schools, in the 69th percentile, for 2025–2026.
Recent subject results moved in different directions: from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026, ELA dipped 0.5 points and math 1.8 points, while science rose 4.0 points. SchoolDigger’s ranking improved from 63rd of 166 schools in 2023–2024 to 50th of 163 in 2025–2026, with its percentile rising from 62nd to 69th. The school reports 517 students, a 13.2 student-teacher ratio, a 45.65% free/reduced-lunch rate in 2024–2025, and $18,364 in per-student spending that year. Because there is only one school in the list, these figures offer context about Hugh Cole but cannot show how its resources or student population compare with those of other Warren schools.
