Summary

Lindeneau Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Edison, New Jersey, serving grades K-5 with a total enrollment of 490 students. The school is part of the Edison Township School District, which is ranked 198 out of 609 districts in New Jersey and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Lindeneau Elementary School has consistently underperformed compared to the district and state in standardized test scores. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, the school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts (ELA) and Mathematics were significantly lower than the district and state averages across all grade levels. Additionally, the school's performance varies significantly across different student subgroups, with the school's African American students performing relatively well, while the Asian, Hispanic, and White student populations have struggled. Lindeneau Elementary School also has high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 12.1% to 16.6% over the past few years, which is higher than the state average.

When comparing Lindeneau Elementary School to other nearby schools in the Edison Township School District, it becomes clear that the school is underperforming. For instance, Lincoln Elementary School, which is also in the district, consistently outperforms Lindeneau in academic achievement, with significantly higher proficiency rates in ELA and Mathematics. The high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds at Lindeneau Elementary School, along with its relatively low per-student spending, may indicate that the school is not receiving adequate resources to support its student population.
