Summary

Woonsocket High School is a public school in Woonsocket, Rhode Island, serving grades 9–12, with 1,646 students. Its test proficiency is low compared with the state and most nearby high schools: in 2025–2026, proficiency ranged from 7% in science to 31% in 11th-grade SAT ELA, making weak test results the school’s most important concern.

The school’s clearest strength is graduation: 88% of students graduated in 2024–2025, compared with 86% statewide and 80% in the Woonsocket district. Test results, however, were below state rates in every reported subject. Science was 7% proficient, versus 31% statewide and 9% districtwide; SAT ELA was 31%, close to the district’s 31% but below the state’s 48%. SAT math was 13%, also close to the district’s 13% and below the state’s 24%. Against nearby schools, Woonsocket ranked lowest in science and second-lowest in 11th-grade SAT ELA and 10th-grade PSAT ELA and math. Its science proficiency was 32 percentage points below the nearby-school average, while graduation was close to the nearby average of 89%.

Results over time are mixed: 11th-grade SAT math rose 7 percentage points and SAT ELA rose 6 points from 2022–2023 to 2025–2026, while science fell 11 points and 10th-grade PSAT ELA fell 4 points. The latest science drop was 13 points. SchoolDigger ranks the school 43rd of 58 statewide, at the 26th percentile with one star; its percentile fell from 32 to 26 in the latest year. The school also has the highest reported student-teacher ratio among nearby schools, at 15.2 compared with a nearby average of 13. Its free/reduced-lunch rate was 67%, above the nearby average of 49%; these figures provide context, not an explanation for results. SchoolDigger’s statewide ranking for African American students stands out at the 41st percentile, above the school’s overall 26th percentile and up from 21 the year before. Its ranking for Special Education students was lower, at the 10th percentile.
