Summary:

ZIP code 02888, in Warwick, has four listed schools: Holliman School, Norwood School, and Wyman School, serving kindergarten through grade 5, plus Pilgrim High School, serving grades 9–12. The elementary schools’ equal-school averages are close to state results in English language arts (ELA), math, and science, but that overall picture hides substantial differences among schools and subjects—the most important finding for families comparing local options.

The elementary-school leader depends on the subject: Wyman School leads ELA at 35.7%, 4.3 percentage points ahead of Holliman School; Norwood School leads math at 40.0%, 13.4 points above Holliman School; and Holliman School leads science at 38.6%, 18.6 points above Norwood School. At the lower end, Norwood School has the lowest elementary ELA and science results, while Holliman School has the lowest math result. Pilgrim High School’s 95.7% graduation rate is above the state’s 85.5%; its SAT ELA and science results are also above state results, but SAT math is 8.6 points below.

Recent changes were mixed, with the biggest declines in science: from 2024–25 to 2025–26, science fell 21.3 points at Norwood School and 14.4 at Wyman School, while Holliman School rose 3.0 points across the three subjects. SchoolDigger’s latest elementary rankings place Norwood School at the 50th percentile, Holliman School at the 45th, and Wyman School at the 44th; the three-year histories show the largest drops at Holliman and Norwood.
