Summary

Holliman School is an elementary school located in Warwick, Rhode Island, serving students from kindergarten to 5th grade. With 258 students enrolled, the school is part of the Warwick School District, which is ranked 30th out of 60 districts in the state and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While Holliman School has seen an increase in the percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, from 23.36% in 2021-2022 to 40.7% in 2023-2024, indicating a growing population of economically disadvantaged students, the school's academic performance has been inconsistent. In the 2024-2025 school year, only 29.5% of Holliman students were proficient or better in RICAS/English Language Arts, compared to 32.3% in the Warwick district and 36.7% statewide. In RICAS/Mathematics, Holliman's proficiency rate was 25.2%, while Warwick's was 29.7%.

Holliman School's performance varies significantly across different student groups, with male students ranking 83rd out of 166 Rhode Island elementary schools, while female students ranked 106th in the 2024-2025 school year. The school's spending per student has increased over the years, from $14,174 in 2019-2020 to $19,179 in 2022-2023, which is higher than the state average. However, this increased spending has not yet translated into consistent improvements in student outcomes, as Holliman's performance still lags behind nearby schools in the Warwick district, such as Hoxsie School, Sherman School, and Norwood School.
