Summary:

Fairfield Township School District consists of a single elementary school, Fairfield Township School, which serves grades PK-8 in Fairfield Township, New Jersey. The school has consistently ranked in the bottom 10% of New Jersey elementary schools over the past 3 years, with significantly below-average performance on standardized tests in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science.

Fairfield Township School faces significant challenges, including a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch (68.02% in 2023-2024) and a concerning chronic absenteeism rate of 14.9% in the same year. The school's low student-teacher ratio of 12.9 to 1 and relatively low district spending per student ($13,433 in 2018-2019) suggest that the school may be grappling with socioeconomic factors that are impacting student achievement.

Overall, the data indicates that Fairfield Township School District and its sole school, Fairfield Township School, are facing significant challenges in student performance and academic outcomes. Addressing these issues will likely require a comprehensive, data-driven approach to improve educational opportunities and support for the students in this community.
