Summary:
The Bogota Public School District in New Jersey has only one high school, Bogota Junior/Senior High School, which serves students in grades 7-12. The school has shown steady improvement in its statewide ranking over the past three years, moving from 212th out of 422 New Jersey high schools in 2022-2023 to 177th out of 434 in 2024-2025.
Academically, Bogota Junior/Senior High School performs well in English Language Arts, with proficiency rates exceeding the state average across grade levels. However, the school faces challenges in Mathematics and Science, with mixed performance compared to state benchmarks. The school's graduation rate of 91.3% is above the state average, but its chronic absenteeism rate of 14.9% is higher than the state's target of 10%.
Socioeconomic factors also play a role, as the school has a high percentage of students (54.58%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a relatively high level of economic disadvantage. The school's per-student spending of $9,163 is lower than the state average, which may present additional challenges in providing resources and support to its students. Overall, Bogota Junior/Senior High School has both strengths and areas for improvement, and the school's leadership and community will need to focus on addressing the identified challenges to ensure the success of all students.
