Summary:
Barrington School District in New Jersey has a single middle school, Woodland Middle School, which serves students in grades 6-8. The school has seen its statewide ranking improve in recent years, moving from 321 out of 748 New Jersey middle schools in 2022-2023 to 186 out of 752 in 2024-2025, with a 4-star rating.
Woodland Middle School's performance on NJSLA tests is generally above the state average, with higher proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics across most grade levels. However, the school's science proficiency rates, particularly in 8th grade, are lower than the state average. The school has a relatively high percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients, at 40.43% in the 2023-2024 school year, which may indicate a need for additional support and resources to address the unique needs of the student population.
Despite these challenges, Barrington School District has allocated resources effectively to support student learning at Woodland Middle School, with a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 8.8 and per-student spending of $4,685 for the 2018-2019 school year. The school's consistent performance and focus on core academic areas suggest it is a solid performer within the district, though there is room for improvement in science instruction.
