Summary:
ZIP code 02893 has one high school: West Warwick High School, serving grades 9–12 and enrolling 1,081 students, so families have no other high school in this list to compare it with. Its 2024–25 graduation rate was 89.7%, above both the West Warwick district rate of 82.6% and the Rhode Island rate of 85.5%. The clearest academic concern is grade 11 mathematics: 12.6% met the reported benchmark, 10.9 percentage points below the state.
Because there is only one listed school, West Warwick High School is both the highest- and lowest-ranked school locally; there is no meaningful local score range. Against state results, its strongest showing was grade 10 English Language Arts, at 55.4%, just 0.6 points below the state’s 56.0%. Its largest shortfall was grade 11 mathematics, while grade 10 mathematics was also 9.0 points below the state. Science results were 7.9 points below the state for all grades and 8.1 points below for grade 11. The graduation rate is a notable positive alongside those test results.
Overall, the school’s state-relative test results weakened across the four grade 10 and grade 11 measures available for both years: the average gap widened from 2.6 points below the state in 2024–25 to 6.5 points below in 2025–26. Mathematics showed the clearest decline in relative standing, while ELA remained closer to state results; grade 11 SAT ELA fell from 50.6% to 42.3%, and grade 10 PSAT10 ELA from 57.7% to 55.4%. Science improved slightly locally, from 22.0% to 23.2% for all grades, but the prior-year state figure is unavailable for comparison. SchoolDigger ranks the school 32nd of 58 Rhode Island high schools, at the 45th percentile with two stars; its rank has remained broadly similar, moving from 35th of 61 to 31st of 60 and then 32nd of 58. The student–teacher ratio is 13, and 56.06% of students receive free or reduced-price lunch.
