Summary:
Blackstone Valley Prep A RI Mayoral Academy includes six Rhode Island schools, from elementary through high school, serving families across the Blackstone Valley. Across its five schools with RICAS results, average proficiency was 35.7% in ELA and 35.0% in math—above state figures by 2.6 and 3.1 percentage points, respectively. The clearest overall pattern is that elementary results are stronger relative to the state than middle-school ELA results.
Blackstone Valley Prep Element leads the elementary schools in all-grades ELA at 41.8%, 8.7 points above state; Blackstone Valley Prep E. 2 leads elementary math at 38.0%, 6.1 points above state. Results vary by grade: Element leads third-grade ELA and math, while Blackstone Valley Prep leads fourth-grade ELA and E. 2 leads fourth-grade math. At middle school, Blackstone Valley Prep Upper E is just above state in science (31.8% versus 31.1%), while Blackstone Valley Prep Junior High is 9.1 points below (22.0%). The high school’s scores are mixed: it is above state in SAT ELA and PSAT10 math, but below in SAT math, PSAT10 ELA and science.
Recent changes are encouraging at several schools but uneven: Element gained 14.0 points in ELA and 6.8 in math, and Upper E gained 2.8 in ELA, 6.4 in math and 11.0 in science from the prior supplied year. Junior High fell 10.2 points in math and 7.6 in science; the high school’s SAT math fell 9.9 points. SchoolDigger’s latest ranks place the elementary schools from 69th to 76th statewide, Junior High 33rd of 68 and the high school 27th of 58. Enrollment ranges from 280 to 426, free/reduced-lunch rates from 73.83% to 84.60%, and student–teacher ratios from 11.7 to 15.2, without a simple pattern matching those measures to scores. Upper E’s only supplied SchoolDigger rank is from 2018–19, so it is not comparable with the current ranks.
