District Reports
Using Information: Characteristics of Students
This material is the same as in the school reports except for:
Student participation in Public School
 |
This pie chart shows (from the student population living in the district):
Note that for the two districts that send their students to high school in another district: Jamestown to North Kingstown, Little Compton to Portsmouth. The high-school students are counted here as part of the population of the sending district, not the district in which they attend high school. |
District Indicators

These indicators are the same as those found on the School Reports: Using Information and Recruiting and Supporting Teachers, except that they are aggregations of all schools in the district.
Student Indicator
The rates of suspension are broken down by school level: elementary, middle, and high schools, with an additional indicator that shows the rates of suspension (districtwide, all schools and statewide, all school) for students with disabilities.
Teacher Indicator
The percent of classes not taught by a Highly Qualified Teacher includes a breakdown for the high-poverty schools (schools among the highest-poverty quartile in the state) and low-poverty schools (schools among the lowest-poverty quartile in the state), with poverty measured as the percent of students eligible for subsidized lunch. These two indicators are new in Information Works! 2008.
The final Teacher indicator, the teacher-student ratio, shows the number of teachers (full-time equivalent) compared with the number of students in the district (and state).
