Summary:
Narragansett has one listed elementary school, Narragansett Elementary, serving pre-kindergarten through grade 4. Its 2025–2026 proficiency rates are well above the state figures in both subjects: 58.8% in English language arts (ELA), compared with 33.1% statewide, and 78.4% in math, compared with 31.9%. The most important finding for parents is the school’s especially strong math result: it exceeds the state rate by 46.5 percentage points.
There is no second listed school to compare with Narragansett Elementary, so it is both the area’s top and bottom school in this list; that does not indicate how it compares with unlisted schools. Within the school, math proficiency is similar in grades 3 and 4—77.3% and 79.3%—while ELA is notably lower in grade 4: 51.7%, versus 68.2% in grade 3, a 16.5-point difference. SchoolDigger ranks the school 11th of 163 statewide for 2025–2026, in the 93rd percentile with five stars; its prior-year ranking was 12th of 166, also in the 93rd percentile with five stars.
Recent results moved in different directions by subject: from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026, math proficiency rose 5.8 percentage points, from 72.6% to 78.4%, while ELA fell 3.3 points, from 62.1% to 58.8%. The school also exceeds the supplied Narragansett district figures—by 22.0 points in math and 3.9 points in ELA. For additional context, the school has 331 students, a student–teacher ratio of 11, and a reported free/reduced-lunch rate of 26.59%; these figures describe the school but do not explain its results. Because only one school is listed, the data cannot show differences among schools in the area.
