Summary

Chittick Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades PK-4 in East Brunswick, New Jersey, with 353 students. While the East Brunswick Township School District is ranked 128 out of 609 districts in the state, Chittick Elementary has faced some challenges in recent years, with its performance lagging behind several nearby schools in the district.

Chittick Elementary's test scores are generally lower than the district and state averages, with only 43.3% of 3rd graders proficient or better in ELA compared to 59.8% for the district and 44.9% for the state. The school also has significant performance gaps between student subgroups, with Asian students ranking 165 out of 330 New Jersey elementary schools, while Hispanic students rank 801 out of 1,032 schools. Additionally, Chittick Elementary has had high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 8.9% to 16.6% in recent years, which is higher than the state average.

Compared to nearby schools in the East Brunswick Township School District, such as Frost Elementary, Irwin Elementary, and Bowne-Munro Elementary, Chittick Elementary's performance lags behind in terms of test scores, chronic absenteeism, and overall rankings. Despite having a relatively low student-teacher ratio and higher spending per student than the state average, these factors do not appear to translate into better academic outcomes for Chittick Elementary compared to its peers.
