Summary

Hoxsie School is an elementary school in Warwick, Rhode Island, serving 269 students from kindergarten to 5th grade. The school is part of the Warwick School District, which is ranked 30 out of 60 districts in the state and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite the school's resources, Hoxsie consistently underperforms compared to the Warwick district and the state average in English Language Arts (ELA) and Mathematics proficiency. In the 2024-2025 school year, only 24.8% of Hoxsie students were proficient or better in ELA, compared to 32.3% in the Warwick district and 36.7% statewide for 3rd grade. In Mathematics, the proficiency rate was 22.6% at Hoxsie, compared to 29.7% in Warwick and 38.4% statewide for 3rd grade. The school also struggles to support the academic achievement of certain student subgroups, ranking in the bottom quartile of Rhode Island elementary schools for male students, Hispanic students, white students, and students with special needs in ELA and Mathematics.

When comparing Hoxsie School to other nearby elementary schools in the Warwick district, such as Park School and Robertson School, Hoxsie consistently underperforms, with significantly higher proficiency rates in ELA and Mathematics, as well as higher overall school rankings. Despite the school's relatively low student-teacher ratio and increased per-student spending, Hoxsie's performance has remained stagnant over the past several years, suggesting the need for more effective strategies and interventions to address the needs of its diverse student population.
