STATE STREET SCHOOL

State Street School is a Title I public elementary school that is part of the Westerly school district, located in Westerly, RI with about 313 students offering grade levels from Kindergarten to 4th Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education. With about 25 teachers, State Street School has a student/teacher ratio of about 12:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

State Street School, located in Westerly, Rhode Island, is an alternative educational program managed by the Westerly Public Schools district. The school is specifically designed to support students in grades 6 through 12 who may benefit from a non-traditional learning environment. By offering a smaller, more personalized setting, the program focuses on helping students overcome academic or social-emotional barriers that might hinder their success in a conventional classroom.

The school emphasizes a student-centered approach, blending core academic coursework with individualized attention to foster both personal and educational growth. Through its targeted curriculum and supportive atmosphere, State Street School aims to help students meet state graduation requirements while developing the self-advocacy and life skills necessary for their post-secondary transition.
