Summary:
The Burlington Township School District in New Jersey is home to two elementary schools: Fountain Woods Elementary School and B. Bernice Young Elementary School. While B. Bernice Young Elementary serves pre-kindergarten through 1st grade, Fountain Woods serves grades 2-5.
Fountain Woods Elementary School has seen fluctuating performance, ranking 807 out of 1,347 New Jersey elementary schools in the 2024-2025 school year with a 2-star rating. The school performs above the state average in 3rd grade English Language Arts (ELA) proficiency but below the state average in 4th and 5th grade ELA, as well as in Mathematics proficiency for all grades. B. Bernice Young Elementary School, on the other hand, has a lower student-teacher ratio of 10:1 compared to 11.5:1 at Fountain Woods and spends slightly more per student ($11,154) than the district average.
Both schools have a relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, around 38%, indicating the district may be serving a population with significant economic challenges. The district may benefit from further analysis and targeted efforts to address the identified areas of concern, particularly at Fountain Woods Elementary School, where academic performance is below state averages in several subjects.
