Summary:
The Hackensack School District in New Jersey contains a single high school, Hackensack High School, which serves grades 9-12. The data indicates that Hackensack High School is a low-performing school that has consistently ranked in the bottom 30% of New Jersey high schools over the past three school years.
Hackensack High School struggles to meet state standards across multiple academic areas. The school's performance on standardized tests, particularly in mathematics, is significantly below the state averages. For example, the school's proficiency rates in NJSLA/Algebra I, NJSLA/Geometry, NJSLA/Algebra II, and NJGPA/Mathematics range from only 3.1% to 56.5%, well below the state averages. Additionally, the school has a high chronic absenteeism rate of 14.9%, which may be contributing to the low academic performance.
Despite these challenges, Hackensack High School does have some positive metrics, such as a relatively low dropout rate of 1.0% and a student-teacher ratio of 12.4, which is slightly lower than the state average. However, the school's overall performance and the significant gaps in academic achievement suggest a need for targeted interventions and support to improve student outcomes and better serve the community.
