Summary:

The Jefferson Township Public School District in New Jersey has only one middle school, Jefferson Township Middle School, which serves students in grades 6-8. The school's performance has fluctuated in recent years, ranking between 268th and 354th out of all New Jersey middle schools.

Jefferson Township Middle School's academic performance is mixed compared to state averages. While the school performs well in Algebra I, with proficiency rates significantly higher than the state average, it struggles in Mathematics and English Language Arts, with proficiency rates below the state average. The school's chronic absenteeism rate is also higher than the state average, which may be a contributing factor to its lower performance in these subject areas.

Demographically, Jefferson Township Middle School has a relatively low percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients, which could indicate a more affluent student population. This may contribute to the school's stronger performance in Algebra I. However, the school's per-student spending is on par with the state average, at $9,950 per student for the 2018-2019 school year.
