Superintendent's Message

Superintendent's Winter Message
January 2025
 
Cranston Public Schools had a successful start to the school year. We are proud to have a Milken Award Winner at Glen Hills Elementary School announced in October. Maria Santonastaso is an outstanding educator, and we were thrilled to be able to celebrate her locally as this esteemed national organization recognized her. We are fortunate to have so many talented, dedicated educators in Cranston.
 
Our RICAS scores have shown growth in many areas and we are proud that the hard work that our educators and students do every day is paying off. Several of our schools have advanced from low or typical ranges to high ranges, demonstrating the tangible impact of our educators' hard work. This progress is about more than test scores—it's about closing learning gaps and creating meaningful opportunities for our students. While educational headlines are often discouraging, our data tells a different, more hopeful story. Our children are making growth and accessing high-quality educational opportunities each day.
