Summary:
The 02840 zip code is home to a single public high school, Rogers High School, which serves grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 605 students. While the school is ranked 36 out of 60 Rhode Island high schools by SchoolDigger, it faces some academic challenges compared to state and district averages.
Rogers High School's 4-year graduation rate for the 2022-2023 school year was 84.0%, which is a positive indicator. However, the school's performance on standardized tests lags behind state averages, with 11th-grade students scoring 45% proficient in ELA and just 10.4% proficient in Math on the SAT in the 2024-2025 school year. In contrast, the school's science proficiency rates, at 25.5% in 2023-2024, are significantly higher than the Newport district average of 19.3%.
The high percentage of free/reduced lunch recipients at 62.48% in 2023-2024 suggests the school serves a student population facing significant economic challenges, which may impact academic performance. Despite the school's relatively high per-student spending of $24,632 and low student-teacher ratio of 10:1, the academic outcomes indicate that further interventions and support may be necessary to help improve student achievement in core subjects like ELA and Math.
