Summary

Fogarty Memorial is a K–5 school in North Scituate, serving 318 students in the Glocester district. Its latest all-grade proficiency rates are 47% in English language arts (ELA), 55% in math and 53% in science. The most important takeaway is that Fogarty is above Rhode Island’s proficiency rate in all three subjects.

Compared with the state, Fogarty is ahead by 14 percentage points in ELA, 23 in math and 22 in science. Compared with its district, it is ahead by 1 point in ELA and 5 in math, but trails by 12 in science. Among nearby schools with reported results, Fogarty is around the middle in ELA, second in math and highest in science; its science score is 17 points above the nearby-school average. So science is both a standout against nearby schools and the clearest relative weakness against the district.

Scores have declined overall since 2022–23: ELA is down 10 points, math 9 and science 3. The latest results are also below the previous year by 5 points in ELA, 12 in math and 8 in science. SchoolDigger ranks Fogarty 29th of 163 Rhode Island schools, at the 82nd percentile with four stars, down from the 91st percentile the prior year. One subgroup result is especially strong: SchoolDigger ranks the school’s effectiveness for students with low socioeconomic status at the 97th percentile (4th of 154 schools), compared with 82nd percentile overall.
