Any good schools in rhode island? PLEASE READ!?

I HATE my school. The kids are all snobby, one of my friends broke my phone and was just a jerk before too. And she has cyber bullied my other friends and the school was supposed to "keep an eye on her" and they FAILED. and I have to wear a uniform, which sucks. Also, its a little of a "rich kid" school so all the people there are kind of snobby. The school is $10,000 a year and that is as much as my parents can afford (they're both teachers so yeah....) so please don't recommend anything more expensive. My best friend (same one who got cyber bullied) is probably going to wheeler next year (which is $40,000 a year so unless anyone knows any good scholarship options then that's OUT). I want to go the the public school, (Cumberland) because i know some people there. They are one grade above me but they are still nice. And they live down my street. The problem is that my parents have a bit of prejudice against public schools because they have both taught at some pretty bad ones (Pawtucket- Special Ed department) and they both know some kids from Central Falls. And for some reason they think that Cumberland High is a bad school. So even though i have asked them, and they could save $10,000 year they still won't let me go! Its also because I went to a public school in kindergarten and the teacher didn't go fast enough and my parents are worried that I won't get the education i need. They are also worried it wouldn't look good an a college application (which by the way, if they save over $10,000 a year for all of high school, then wouldn't that help pay for college so I wouldn't need a HUGE scholarship? And isn't good grades good grades no matter where its from?) So anyways, what are some good private schools in Rhode Island that are $10,000 or less? Preferably without a uniform. Also, I am very much into arts (I love to draw and I have been told that I am pretty good) so arts high schools would be fine as long as it isn't too expensive and is in either Rhode Island or a bordering city in MA (Attleborow and such)

THANK YOU sorry its long

    hmmm thats tough... ive never been to Rhode Island or a private school, so im not sure how any of that works. but i know PLENTY of people who are insanely smart in public school, and they do wonderful in college and university. i think grades are what matters, not really the school you go to. plus, youre right when you say they can save money for your scholarship... so they should really consider sending you to a public school! especially if people arent very nice!

    I'm actually in Rhode Island so... You sound like a guy and bishop Hendrickon would be best for guys and Bay View(expensive) for girls... You sound like you go to LaSalle but I can't be sure Lasalle is wicked expensive also if you go to a Catholic school say your considering priesthood and they may take a few thousand off the bill
