How to read these scores

What is RICAS + NGSA?
RICAS + NGSA is the statewide standardized test administered by Rhode Island public schools.
What does "% Meeting or Exceeding Expectations" mean?
It is the share of students at the school who performed at grade level or above on the test, summed across the top two of four performance levels. A higher number is better.
What does 54.3% mean for English Language Arts at Stony Lane El. School?
It means about 54.3 percent of students tested at Stony Lane El. School performed at grade level or above on the RICAS + NGSA English Language Arts test in 2024-25. The statewide average for Rhode Island that year was 34.2%. The other students fell into the lower performance levels.
How is the state average calculated?
It is a weighted average, not a simple average of each school's number. We multiply each public school's score by how many of its students tested, add those together for all schools in Rhode Island, and divide by the total students tested that year. This way a big school with 1,500 students counts more than a small school with 50 students, which is the right way to ask "how did the typical student do this year?". District and county averages on this page use the same method, just scoped to that district or county.
Where does this data come from?
Rhode Island Department of Education, RICAS (ELA + Math, the same test as MA MCAS) + NGSA (Science). School-level All Groups / All Grades summary from the RIDE Assessment Data Portal (ADP) per-school export endpoint. Headline metric is the cumulative "Meeting + Exceeding Expectations" rate (top 2 of 4 RICAS levels).
How often is it updated?
RICAS + NGSA is administered once a year (spring). Results are released by the state in the summer or early fall. We refresh this page after each annual release.
