Summary:
The Estell Manor School District in New Jersey consists of a single school, Estell Manor Elementary School, which serves students from kindergarten through 8th grade. The school's performance has been mixed, with some strengths but also areas for improvement.
Estell Manor Elementary School has consistently ranked in the lower half of New Jersey elementary schools, placing 804th out of 1,347 schools in the 2024-2025 school year. The school's performance on NJSLA tests varies, with 8th-grade students scoring 82.3% proficient or better in ELA but only 25% proficient or better in 5th-grade math. The school also faces challenges, such as a relatively high rate of chronic absenteeism at 14.9% and a moderate percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch at 21.2%.
Despite these challenges, the Estell Manor School District allocates significant resources to the school, with above-average per-student spending of $13,620 in the 2018-2019 school year and a low student-teacher ratio of 11.6. However, these resources have not yet translated into consistently strong academic outcomes for students, suggesting that the district and school may need to explore ways to better support student learning and achievement.
