ZIP code 02814 has one listed elementary school, West Glocester Elementary, which serves pre-K through grade 5 in the Glocester district. It enrolls 243 students, has a reported student–teacher ratio of 13.5:1, and 28.4% of students qualified for free or reduced-price lunch in 2024–25. Its clearest strength is science: 80.0% proficiency in 2025–26, 48.9 percentage points above Rhode Island’s 31.1%.
There is no school-to-school comparison in this ZIP code, so the most useful contrasts are with state results and between grades. Overall, West Glocester Elementary was above the state in all three reported subjects: ELA was 44.4% versus 33.1%, and math was 42.6% versus 31.9%; science led by the much larger margin noted above and was also 15.3 points above the district’s 64.7%. Results differ sharply by grade, however. Fifth grade was especially strong—ELA was 34.6 points above the state, math 36.8 points above, and science 47.4 points above—while third-grade ELA was 9.9 points below the state and third-grade math was 20.0 points below. Grade 4 ELA and math were each about 7 points above state results.
Recent results show improvement in science but declines in ELA and math. From 2024–25 to 2025–26, science rose from 71.4% to 80.0%, while ELA fell from 54.8% to 44.4% and math from 55.6% to 42.6%; despite those drops, both remained above state results in 2025–26. SchoolDigger’s statewide percentile ranking also moved down, from the 91st percentile in 2023–24 to the 87th in 2024–25 and 69th in 2025–26, with its listed rank shifting from 15 of 166 to 51 of 163. Those rankings are separate from proficiency scores. With only one school listed, the available data cannot show how it compares with other local schools.
