7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy daughter just finished her 8th grade year at Chariho. I can’t speak highly enough of the teachers and leadership at our schools. School administrators and staff have such a big challenge in today’s world and Chariho consistently steps up to the plate; this district really does care about every single one of our kids. I’m so grateful to be a part of this community.Parent Review2y ago
