Chariho High School outperforms the state average on several key test score metrics, including SAT English Language Arts (69.3% vs 47.8% state average) and SAT Mathematics (34.6% vs 21.7% state average) for 11th graders.

The data also reveals a stark contrast in the free/reduced lunch rates between the high/middle schools (20.13% and 22.84% respectively) and the alternative school (59.38%), suggesting the alternative school may serve a more economically disadvantaged student population. Additionally, the similar per-student spending levels between the high school and middle school ($14,465 vs $14,721) indicate the district is allocating resources fairly evenly, but the lack of spending data for the alternative school makes it difficult to assess if it is receiving adequate funding.
