Summary:
ZIP code 02813 has one elementary school, Charlestown Elementary School, serving grades K–4 and enrolling 246 students. With no other elementary school in the local list, families have no nearby school-to-school comparison in these data. The most important finding is that Charlestown’s 2025–26 all-grades proficiency was above state averages in both subjects, especially math, although grade-level math results varied sharply.
Charlestown Elementary School is the only school in the set, so there is no local top or bottom performer. Compared with Rhode Island overall, its all-grades ELA proficiency was 35.7%, 2.6 percentage points higher than the state’s 33.1%; math was 39.3%, 7.4 points higher than the state’s 31.9%. The picture changes by grade: third-grade math was 26.2%, 10.9 points below the state, while fourth-grade math was 47.1%, 12 points above it. ELA was slightly above the state in both grades. Charlestown was below the Chariho district on both all-grades measures: by 9 points in ELA and 4.6 points in math.
Both all-grades results declined from 2024–25 to 2025–26: ELA fell from 46.1% to 35.7%, and math from 58.8% to 39.3%, with the larger drop in math. SchoolDigger’s ranking also shifted down: the school went from 45th of 166 schools and the 73rd percentile in each of the prior two years to 72nd of 163 and the 56th percentile in 2025–26; its rating changed from four stars to three. Other context includes a 12.9 student–teacher ratio and a 31.3% free- or reduced-price-lunch rate, both reported for 2024–25, plus spending of $21,919 per student. The local list provides no peer-school figures for these context measures.
