In Mathematics, the school's proficiency rates range from 29.3% in 5th grade to 37.5% in 3rd grade, again falling short of the state averages of 31.6% and 38.4%.
While the school's student population has a relatively lower percentage of free/reduced lunch recipients (25.66%) compared to the state average, this does not appear to be a significant advantage, as the school's academic performance still lags behind the state. Overall, the data suggests that Capt. Isaac Paine Elementary School is a relatively average-performing school in the Foster district and the state of Rhode Island, with room for improvement in academic achievement across various subject areas.
