Summary

E. Roy Bixby is an elementary school located in Bogota, New Jersey, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 306 students. The school is part of the Bogota Public School District, which is ranked 307 out of 609 districts in New Jersey and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

E. Roy Bixby's academic performance, as measured by NJSLA test scores, is generally below the state and district averages across grade levels and subject areas. For example, in 2024-2025, the school's 3rd grade proficiency rates were 34% in ELA and 38% in Math, compared to the state averages of 44.9% and 49.8% respectively. The school's performance has declined over the years, with its statewide ranking dropping from 294 out of 1,346 elementary schools in 2015-2016 to 891 out of 1,347 in 2024-2025. The school also experiences high rates of chronic absenteeism, ranging from 11.5% to 16.6% over the past few years, which is above the state average.

Comparing E. Roy Bixby to nearby schools, such as Lillian M. Steen in the same district and Grant Elementary School in the neighboring Ridgefield Park Public School District, suggests that E. Roy Bixby faces unique challenges that have not been effectively addressed, despite the relatively high spending per student of $14,677 in 2018-2019. Addressing the root causes of the school's underperformance, such as improving instructional practices, addressing attendance issues, and providing targeted support for struggling student subgroups, should be a priority for the school and district.
