Summary:

The Fair Haven School District is home to two exceptional schools that consistently rank among the top performers in New Jersey: Knollwood School, a middle school, and Viola L Sickles School, an elementary school. Both schools have received 5-star ratings from SchoolDigger, indicating they are among the top-performing schools in the state.

Knollwood School is a standout, ranking in the top 10 middle schools in New Jersey for the 2022-2023 school year and consistently ranking in the top 50 in recent years. The school boasts exceptional test scores, with the majority of students scoring proficient or better on NJSLA assessments. Viola L Sickles School is also a high-performing institution, ranking in the top 7 elementary schools in New Jersey for the 2023-2024 school year and consistently ranking in the top 50 in recent years.

Both schools maintain low chronic absenteeism rates and very low percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, suggesting a relatively affluent student population. The schools also spend more per student than the state average, indicating a strong investment in education. The difference in student-teacher ratios between the two schools, with Knollwood School having a smaller ratio of 8.2 compared to 11.3 at Viola L Sickles School, may be an area worth exploring further.
