Summary:

Carlstadt Public School District has one listed school, Carlstadt Public School, serving prekindergarten through grade 8 with 478 students. With no other listed schools for comparison, its results offer the picture of the district’s schools. In 2025–26, its average was above the state average in both ELA and math, but some individual grades fell behind—most notably grade 7 ELA and grade 3 math—so the overall advantage does not mean results were strong in every grade.

The strongest results varied by subject, while grade 7 ELA and grade 8 science were notable weak spots. In ELA, grade 8 led with 63% proficient, 9 points above the state; grade 4 was lowest at 48%, though still 2 points above the state. Grade 7 was the only ELA grade below the state: 49% versus 56%, a 7-point gap. In math, grade 5 was highest at 57%, 12 points above the state, while grade 8 was lowest at 27% and 4 points above the state; grade 3 was 12 points below the state. Science also differed sharply by grade: grade 5 was 36%, 9 points above the state, while grade 8 was 10%, 9 points below. Algebra I stood out as a strength, with 100% in both reported comparisons, versus 40% statewide for End of Course and 75% for grade 8.

Results over time show a sizable ELA setback in grade 7 and a steady math average. The school’s grade 7 ELA result fell from 79% in 2024–25 to 49% in 2025–26; its average ELA result fell from 61% to 56%, while its math average held at 44%. SchoolDigger ranks the district 274th of 607, in the 55th percentile, with 3 stars; its percentile rose 7 points from 2024–25 to 2025–26. Other context includes a 10.6:1 student–teacher ratio and 44% free/reduced lunch eligible in 2024–25. Chronic absenteeism that year was 6% at the school versus 14% statewide.
