Summary

East Providence High is a public high school serving grades 9–12 in East Providence, Rhode Island, with 1,691 students. Its 2025–26 SchoolDigger ranking is in the middle of the state, at the 48th percentile and 3 stars, but it ranks ahead of nearby schools on several comparable high-school tests. The clearest takeaway is that grade 10 ELA is a standout, while science is the school’s largest current gap with the state.

The school’s strongest state comparison is grade 10 ELA: 61% proficient, 5 percentage points above the state and the highest reported result among nearby schools. It also leads nearby schools in grade 10 PSAT math (27%) and grade 11 SAT math (18%), though both are below state results. Grade 11 ELA is 47%, just 1 point below the state and second locally to RINI Middle College. Science is weaker: 24% proficient, 7 points below the state and 4 points below the East Providence district overall. The 2024–25 graduation rate is a bright spot at 90%, 5 points above the state and 4 above the district.

Results have generally improved: since 2022–23, grade 10 ELA rose 13 points, moving from 7 points below the state to 5 points above it; grade 10 math increased 9 points, and grade 11 ELA rose 5 points. SchoolDigger’s overall percentile ranking climbed from 21 to 48 over the longer term. The student-teacher ratio is 15.5, compared with a nearby-school average of about 14.6. Free/reduced-lunch eligibility is 53%, the lowest nearby rate; this is context, not an explanation for test results. SchoolDigger’s student-group rankings differ from its overall standing: African American students rank at the 65th percentile, while White students rank at the 33rd percentile.
