Toll Gate High School

I deeply regret enrolling my child at this Islamic school in Rhode Island. Despite its intended mission, the actual environment is troubling and, frankly, unsafe for any child’s well-being — academically, emotionally, or socially.Bullying is rampant and the administration appears completely helpless to address it. Instead of acknowledging or taking real steps to resolve the issue, they deflect, minimize, or ignore it altogether. Our child repeatedly experienced a toxic peer environment, and no meaningful action was ever taken to protect her.The teaching staff is disconnected and unqualified. There’s a noticeable lack of classroom control, accountability, or even basic engagement. Teachers seem unprepared and poorly equipped to support students, and this is reflected in the poor academic organization and chaotic communication.Any attempt from us, as proactive parents, to engage constructively—whether regarding homework, exams, or missing assignments—was met with defensiveness and even hostility. Shockingly, a teacher instructed our daughter to “tell your mom to stop emailing” rather than addressing the academic concerns. That alone speaks volumes.Worse, assignments and assessments are often crammed in at the end of the quarter, with no feedback or grading process throughout. It feels like they are winging it—and our children pay the price.Bottom line: RUN. Do not entrust your children to this school. Find a better, safer, more nurturing environment. Your kids deserve more—and so do you.

Not diverse at all my daughter has dealt with multiple racially charged comments. The kids are also very rough with each other with little to no correction. They also state that they accept non secular students but that won’t stop the pressure they put on you to baptize your child. The education is the only plus but beyond academic, I would say electives are lacking. Would not recommend especially if you’re a minority.
