Summary

Forest Park Elementary School is a 264-student K–5 school in the North Kingstown area of Rhode Island. In 2025–26, SchoolDigger ranked it 20th of 163 statewide, at the 88th percentile with four stars. Its results are strong overall, but vary by subject and grade. The most important takeaway is that math is a clear strength, while science—especially after a steep drop in the latest year—is the main concern.

Compared with North Kingstown, Forest Park was ahead in ELA (58% versus 55%) and math (62% versus 54%), but behind in science (43% versus 51%). It exceeded state results in all three subjects, by 25 points in ELA, 30 in math, and 12 in science. Among five North Kingstown schools with results, it ranked second in math, third in ELA, and fourth in science. Nearby comparisons show a similar pattern: only Hamilton School and James H. Eldredge School had higher math results, while Forest Park ranked seventh of eight schools in science. Fourth grade stood out—math proficiency was 74%, compared with 67% districtwide—while fifth-grade ELA was weaker at 43%, versus 50% districtwide.

Results have not risen steadily: ELA was broadly flat from 2022–23 to 2025–26, math gained 3 points overall despite fluctuations, and science fell 7 points. Science dropped 21 points in the latest year, from 64% to 43%, after being above the district the year before. Forest Park’s student-teacher ratio was 12.5, below the nearby-school average of 13.3; its free/reduced-lunch rate of 24.6% was close to the nearby average of 24.5%. One subgroup ranking shifted notably: SchoolDigger placed special education students at the 89th percentile in 2025–26, up from the 79th percentile the prior year, while the school’s overall percentile stayed at 88; this ranking is not a measure of individual student growth.
