Summary:
The only elementary school listed in the South Hunterdon Regional School District is South Hunterdon Regional Elementary School, which serves Pre-K through grade 4 and enrolls 265 students. Test results are reported for grades 3 and 4. Because there is only one school, there is no school-to-school comparison; the clearest finding is that in 2025–2026 the school exceeded state proficiency results in all four reported grade-and-subject comparisons.
Among the latest results, grade 4 math stands out: 62% of students were proficient, compared with 47% statewide, a 15-point advantage. Grade 4 ELA was the school’s lowest result, at 55%, but still 9 points above the state’s 46%. The school also led the state in grade 3 ELA by 13 points (61% versus 48%) and grade 3 math by 10 points (59% versus 49%). In 2024–2025, grade 3 ELA was the exception to above-state performance: 42% proficient, 3 points below the state’s 45%.
Overall results and SchoolDigger’s ranking improved, but grade-level trends differed. The average across the four reported results rose from 55% in 2024–2025 to 59% in 2025–2026, while the state average moved from 49% to 48%; the school’s average advantage grew from 7 to 12 points. That improvement included a 19-point rise in grade 3 ELA, alongside a 10-point drop in grade 4 ELA. Math was steadier: grade 3 rose 7 points, while grade 4 slipped 1 point and remained well above the state. SchoolDigger placed the school in the 61st percentile in 2024–2025 (rank 528 of 1,347) and the 68th percentile in 2025–2026 (rank 421 of 1,331). As context, 31% of students were eligible for free/reduced lunch in 2024–2025; the student-teacher ratio was 8.1, and chronic absenteeism was 12%, below the district’s 15% and the state’s 14%.
