I had two children in this school they fell so behind. my kindergarten child had no idea of the basics of reading. the whole concept of school was to color and play with her she struggled. my 3rd grader at the time is haing the hardest time in forth grade cause she was lacking the information that she needed for the forth grade. it has been a difficult transition thanks guys at charlotte woods from their frustrated mom.

About the tests


In 2011-2012 Rhode Island used the New England Common Assessment Program (NECAP) to test students in grades 3 through 8 and 11 in reading and math, in grades 5, 8 and 11 in writing, and in grades 4, 8 and 11 in science. The NECAP is a standards-based test, which means it measures specific skills defined for each grade by the state of Rhode Island. The goal is for all students to score at or above the proficient level.
