Summary:

Elsinboro Township School District has one school, Elsinboro Township School, an elementary school serving pre-K through grade 8, with 105 students in 2024–2025. In 2025–2026, the school’s average results across reported grades were below New Jersey’s in ELA (45% versus 51%), math (31% versus 39%) and science (18% versus 23%). The most important takeaway is that performance varies sharply by grade, with particularly low results in grade 5.

There are no other district schools to compare, but grade-level results show clear standouts at both ends. Grade 3 math was the strongest reported result: 64% proficient, 15 percentage points above the state’s 49%. At the other end, grade 5 math was 8%, 38 points below the state’s 46%; grade 5 ELA was 15%, 36 points below the state, and grade 5 science was 0%, 27 points below. Science results differ notably by grade: grade 8 reached 35%, 16 points above the state’s 19%. These contrasts mean a strong result in one grade does not describe results across the school.

Year-to-year results were mixed, with the overall matched-grade average falling from 37% in 2024–2025 to 27% in 2025–2026; for those same comparisons, the school moved from 8 points below the state average to 18 points below. Grade 3 ELA and math improved by 18 and 36 points, respectively, while grade 5 ELA, math and science declined by 28, 42 and 36 points. SchoolDigger’s statewide school ranking percentile also fell, from 46 in 2023–2024 to 39 in 2024–2025 and 33 in 2025–2026. As context, 54% of students were eligible for free or reduced-price lunch in 2024–2025; chronic absenteeism was 11%, compared with 14% statewide.
