Summary

Blackrock School is a PK–5 elementary school in Coventry, Rhode Island, with 322 students. In 2025–26, its all-grades results were slightly above the state in English language arts (ELA) and math, but below it in science. Science is the clearest concern: 29% of students were proficient, compared with 31% statewide, 47% in the Coventry district, and a 45% average among nearby schools reporting results; it was the lowest of those seven schools.

ELA is Blackrock’s strongest subject compared with the district and nearby schools. Proficiency was 35%, 2 points above the state and 3 below the district; the nearby-school average was 36%, placing Blackrock near the middle locally. Math was 34%—2 points above the state, but 5 below the district and 6 below the nearby-school average of 40%. Grade-level results show additional variation: fourth graders were above the state in both ELA and math, while fifth-grade math proficiency was 29%, below the state’s 32% and the district’s 40%; Blackrock ranked second-lowest among seven nearby schools reporting that result.

Recent results show modest ELA improvement but declines in math and science: from 2022–23 to 2025–26, ELA rose 2 percentage points, while math fell 2 and science fell 6. Over the same period, the science gap with the district widened from 1 point to 18, while the ELA gap narrowed from 7 points to 3. State results are available only for 2025–26, so changes in the school’s gap with the state cannot be assessed. Blackrock’s 2025–26 SchoolDigger standing was the 52nd percentile with 3 stars, fifth-lowest among the 11 schools compared. Its statewide SchoolDigger effectiveness ranking for Hispanic students was at the 31st percentile, down from 60 the year before and below its overall percentile. Context measures include a student-teacher ratio of 14.6, above the nearby average of 13.2, and a free/reduced-lunch rate of 55%, compared with a nearby average of 41%; these figures describe the school’s context, not the cause of its results.
