Summary:
The Nuestro Mundo Public Charter area has one elementary school, Nuestro Mundo Public Charter S, serving kindergarten through grade 8 and enrolling 292 students. With only one school, there is no school-to-school comparison; the clearest benchmark is Rhode Island overall. Most importantly, the school’s 2025–26 all-grades proficiency was below the state in ELA (19.0% vs. 33.1%), math (12.8% vs. 31.9%), and science (21.3% vs. 31.1%), with the largest gap in math.
Within the school, results vary considerably by grade: 7th-grade math was 5.4 percentage points above the state, while 7th- and 8th-grade ELA were slightly higher, by 1.3 and 0.2 points. Other grades were further behind: 3rd- and 4th-grade ELA were each 24.9 points below the state, and 3rd-grade math was 30.3 points lower. Science was the school’s strongest subject relative to the state overall, but its grade-level results differed: 5th-grade science was 2.4 points below the state, while 8th-grade science was under 5%, compared with 29.4% statewide. These grade-level contrasts are the main standout pattern; there are no separate schools in the area to identify as top or bottom performers.
Recent results show a marked rise in science, but not across every subject: from 2024–25 to 2025–26, science increased from 5.3% to 21.3%, math edged up from 12.1% to 12.8%, and ELA slipped from 20.0% to 19.0%. SchoolDigger’s ranking improved from 142nd of 166 elementary schools (14th percentile) to 129th of 163 (21st percentile), though it remains in the lower part of the statewide rankings; SchoolDigger assigned one star in 2025–26. The reported student–teacher ratio is 18.2, and 85.27% of students were eligible for free or reduced-price lunch in 2024–25; these figures describe the school’s context, not the cause of its results. Because the area has just one school, comparisons with similar schools are not available.
