Summary

Winsor Hill School serves 380 students in grades 1–5 in Johnston, Rhode Island, and is part of the Johnston district. Its latest results show a clear subject-level contrast: science is a relative bright spot, while math is the school’s most pressing comparative weakness.

Science proficiency was 21%, 5 percentage points above Johnston’s 17% but 10 points below the state’s 31%; among nearby schools with results, only Thornton School scored higher. ELA was 19%, below the district’s 28% and the state’s 33%, but fourth among the 11 nearby schools. Math was weakest: 14%, compared with 20% in Johnston and 32% statewide, and seventh among nearby schools. This means Winsor Hill’s standing depends on the subject: it compares favorably in science and ELA locally, but lags in math.

Results have shifted over time, with ELA falling from 32% in 2022–23 to 19% in 2025–26, a 12-point decline; its gap with Johnston widened from 1 point below to 8 points below. Math rose for two years before dropping from 23% in 2024–25 to 14%, leaving it 4 points lower than in 2022–23. Science improved by 10 points overall from its 2022–23 result, but fluctuated considerably along the way. SchoolDigger ranks Winsor Hill 132nd of 163 Rhode Island schools, at the 19th percentile with 1 star; it is ahead of seven nearby schools, though its percentile is 34 points below its 2021–22 peak. Its student–teacher ratio was 11.8 in 2024–25, the fourth-lowest among the 11 schools. Its free/reduced-lunch rate was 61%, up 12 points in two years, but still the second-lowest in this local group.
