Summary

Holly Glen Elementary School is a public elementary school serving 515 students in grades PK-4 in Williamstown, New Jersey, which is part of the Monroe Township Public School District. While Holly Glen's overall student performance on state assessments is generally below the district and state averages, the school appears to be effectively serving certain historically underperforming subgroups, such as its African American, Hispanic, Special Education, and Low Socioeconomic Status students.

Holly Glen's chronic absenteeism rate has been steadily increasing, reaching 14.9% in 2023-2024, which is higher than the state average. Additionally, the school spends $6,850 per student, which is lower than the $6,021 spent per student at the nearby Whitehall Elementary School and the $5,139 spent per student at Oak Knoll Elementary. However, Holly Glen has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 9.2, compared to 9.6 at Whitehall and 11.2 at Oak Knoll.

While Holly Glen's performance is generally below the district and state averages, the school appears to be outperforming some nearby schools, such as those in the Winslow Township School District, which have lower rankings and test scores. However, schools like Whitman Elementary and Birches Elementary in the Washington Township School District significantly outperform Holly Glen, suggesting there may be valuable lessons to be learned from their approaches.
