Current Resident: North Kingstown has been a great place to live and go to school. The town has 5 elementary schools, two middle/junior high schools and a senior high school. The senior high school is less than 15 years old and offers a lot of opportunities for students to excel in academics, the arts, and athletics. Academically, North Kingstown high school has prepared me well for college and life beyond college. They offer a very broad range of class subjects which was very helpful for me to discover what I wanted choose as a major in college. The teachers are very supportive and willing to help but they expect you to try hard and help yourself to the learning opportunities that are available. North Kingstown is a nice town. There is diversity among the residents. Most everyone is respectful of each other. There are some very large parks and recreation areas for kids to stretch their legs, run and play. There is also a town beach that gives residents access to the Narragansett Bay.... Read 64 reviews

Current Resident: Narragansett is a magical New England town. For some its a seasonal beach town, for others it's year round living. The college students tend to take over the Scarborough, Bonnet Shores, and Pt. Judith areas during the academic season. If you aren't into the beach, Narragansett is home to the fishing community of Galilee at Port of Judith. This houses the second largest commercial fishing fleet on coast only bested by Massachusetts' New Bedford fleet. My family has been here many generations and I have had the Blessing of Selling homes to many a vacationers and old-timers alike. You can always stop by my website if are interested in owning a piece of this town yourself billgilberthomes.com... Read 33 reviews

Current Resident: This is a beautiful seaside town. A little over run with tourists in the summer, but that's understandable. Having lived in the Pier for several years, I've enjoyed learning its history while strolling along historic Central Street and being able to walk everywhere... from a revitalized Boon Street, to the seawall and beach. There are numerous hiking trails and the bike path as well.The choices to dine out are varied and good. Hopefully the new library, which will be located in the heart of Pier Marketplace, will help it become a more vibrant spot in town...especally for the locals. A great place to live and visit....

Current Resident: A warm summer morning with the sound of ocean waves gently crashing into the sand along the Westerly Town Beach.A beach morning paired with a beach bagel as I wait for my friends, enjoying the beauty of the seagulls fighting over my crumbs.In addition to the daytime beach activities, are fun summer evenings spent walking Bay Street, stopping to get chicken tenders and french fries at St. Clair Annex.Growing up in Westerly has meant establishing friendships that will last a lifelong.Being outdoors and enjoying all that summer has to offer in New England is such an important part of my life and honestly where so many of my fondest memories have been made.Progressed from grade school, through middle and high school have meant that our perfect days have only gotten better as we’ve matured.Perfect summer days will transition into new memories in different places, but it also means that next summer our beach days will be bittersweet because not matter where we go, Westerly will be “home”...

Current Resident: Richmond being a small town found in the one and only rhode island is full of great people and places to go. Richmond is full of people who are always willing to help each other out and want the best for everyone around them, you will never find another town that has such a strong feeling of community and care. Whether it is the Washington County fair where everyone gathers in the summer for a week long to enjoy traditions and culture of the area to the awesome schooling this is a place that you can live without having to worry about whether or not you are safe and will have something to do. No other town beats the small Richmond Rhode Island if you ever have the time to research this area you will not be disappointed no body could not love this place.... Read 18 reviews

Niche User: Born and raised in Charlestown, RI I love it for everything it has to offer, even it's flaws. No matter where I live in my life that little beach town will always be my home. The people are happy and cheerful and always willing to help each other, even in wintertime this beach town is all happy and having fun. In the summer the population must triple at least and in come the Quonnies and Charlestown beachers for the summer. Most times summer people are awful but these beach house townies are some of the nicest you could possibly meet. (Though steer clear of some of the campers!) All in all Charlestown has some downs, like the fact that it's a trip to get to any stores or restaurants. City people wouldn't be fond of our wooded paradise. Charlestown is a wonderful place that will always be my home away from home.... Read 1 review

Junior: Coming from a different middle school to Saint Stephen's and Saint Agnes School (SSSAS) for ninth grade, I found the transition to be quite easy and there are a lot of different opportunities to get to know other students before school starts. My favorite part about SSSAS has been the opportunities that come with a flexible schedule and a multitude of different elective classes including art, music, design, technology, journalism, health, robotics, and STEM classes on top of the core classes. I had the chance to try different classes and take risks to find things that I am interested in. These opportunities, that come with a small size school, extend beyond the classroom to sports, clubs, and leadership positions and help to turn students into well rounded people that are able to make lasting connections with a diverse range of people. I am grateful for the guidance that the college counselors have given me that begin well before students even begin thinking about colleges.... Read 142 reviews

Parent: We are a new family coming into the school & will most likely have more to say in the future, but our experience w/the admissions & leadership team deserves a review now. We are thrilled & feel like this is a very good fit for us- values, education & community-wise. From the very first moment I heard leadership and staff announce their pronouns, to throughout the many open houses, I feel like we were seen & belong. Both Shamika & Ashaki were phenomenal throughout the admissions process. Their responsiveness, attention to detail, kindness & professionalism were top notch. They both spent time really getting to know us, and contributed to a feeling that no matter what happened, we had a fairest opportunity in the process. Further, to have received an invite right away for my daughter to join a cooking class for new middle schoolers this week blew my mind- we are months away from start & they would be forgiven for taking a break before jumping into welcoming activities! Thank U SSFS!... Read 76 reviews
