**__Introduction __** East Greenwich is the most affluent town currently in Kent County, Rhode Island. It is known for its waterfront and downtown business district. The town was originally founded as Greenwich in 1677, for Greenwich, England. In this statement, we will be discussing the community of East Greenwich, particularly the economics and demographics of the town. In addition to this we will be discussing the district of East Greenwich, particularly the school systems student exam scores, and qualifications. Looking at the East Greenwich High School, we will also be discussing the student characteristics such as graduation rates and attendance. Our audience for this includes teachers who need jobs, as well as community taxpayers and parents. **__Community Background __**  East Greenwich, Rhode Island has a household and family income that is concluded to be extremely affluent. The income levels here are almost double that of the rest of Rhode Island and the United States as a whole. In fact, the town’s population below the poverty level is less than 33% that of the national average. East Greenwich is a primarily white town, more so than the rest of Rhode Island and the Nation by about 13% and 20%, respectively. Clearly it is not an extremely diverse community. East Greenwich’s child population only makes up 1.5% of Rhode Island, despite being a sizeable area. Their affluence could be partly attributed to this shockingly low number. Families with children are economically well off, with only 1% in need of cash assistance. The rest of Rhode Island stands at 4%. That percentage carries over to the school breakfast program, but the Rhode Island average for that is a high 22%. Children here are relatively healthy and safe. Only 519 received medical assistance of any kind, compared to Rhode Island’s 104,532. In total, 5 kids were abused for every 1,000. This s only a third of what other children in the state go through. In East Greenwich, children on average get a better education and are much more behaved than their surrounding communities.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">The scores on the NECAP could be attributed to the fact that East Greenwich has highly qualified teachers and the class size average relative to Barrington, Central Falls and the rest of the state.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">East Greenwich really doesn’t have much diversity as far as ethnicity. Most students are white who come from well off families so many of the students do not need Bilingual education service or subsidized lunches. Students receiving special education services are close to the state average.
