Summary:
Trinity Academy for the Performing Arts is a public charter high school serving grades 7-12 in Providence, Rhode Island. As the only school in this data set, the insights focus on the performance and characteristics of this single institution.
While Trinity Academy for the Performing Arts has a relatively small student-teacher ratio of 8.2 to 1, the school is struggling academically. Its proficiency rates on state assessments are significantly below the Rhode Island averages, particularly in math where only 6.5% of 7th graders and 7.5% of 8th graders scored proficient or better, compared to the state averages of 26.6% and 26.4% respectively. Similarly, the school's SAT and PSAT scores trail the state averages in both English Language Arts and Mathematics. With an 84.0% four-year graduation rate, Trinity Academy for the Performing Arts also falls short of the state average.
These academic challenges may be exacerbated by the school's high-poverty student population, as 85.37% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch. Despite spending $16,405 per student, which is higher than the state average, the school was ranked 39th out of 60 Rhode Island high schools in 2024-2025 with a 2-star rating from School Digger. While the small student-teacher ratio presents an opportunity for more individualized attention, Trinity Academy for the Performing Arts will likely need to implement significant interventions and support systems to improve student learning and achievement.
