Achievement First Providence

This school is a hidden gem. As a result of the high population of special needs students, the entire staff is flexible and attentive to student needs. The school offers many after-school events for families to attend, and the office staff is super friendly.

5 stars - without question. This school didn’t have the best online PR - the only two articles I read about it were extremely negative (and scared me until I found out all the facts from these stories) - I realize now that my son being placed in this school was a blessing. Previously we were thinking of moving to Narragansett so that he could be in a “good school” but now we are considering staying in this neighborhood BECAUSE of the school, which is ironic.

i love this school I went to here sadly on my 4th grade year I left the school for problems with the school principal but I’ll never forgot the memories I had here thank you for all of your hard work if I can reexperience this I would I will do anything to relive all of it again thanks you -Iker morales

This marks the second year my son has been enrolled at this school, and we've witnessed significant shifts in personnel, from the principal to several teachers previously criticized in unfavorable reviews.The incoming principal is driven by a genuine desire for improvement and is confronting the tough decisions inherent to the role. A newly established parent council is actively contributing to much-needed reforms within the school. I'm optimistic about the direction in which the school is moving under this new leadership.As my son approaches his transition to middle school next year, I'm encouraged by the positive developments at this institution. Despite its smaller size, the school proactively supports its students before academic challenges become unmanageable, showing a real commitment to their overall well-being.
