Summary:
Kingsway Regional School District has two schools serving grades 7–12: Kingsway Regional Middle School (grades 7–8, 939 students) and Kingsway Regional High School (grades 9–12, 1,822 students). The results show strengths in several areas, but they are not uniformly strong across schools, subjects, and grades. Most notably, the reported End of Course mathematics results differ sharply between the schools.
The Middle School stands out in End of Course mathematics: in 2025–2026, 67% were proficient in Algebra I versus 12% at the High School, a 55-point gap; in Geometry, the results were 87% versus 43%, a 44-point gap. Its grade-level Mathematics results, however, split in opposite directions: grade 7 was 14 points above the state, while grade 8 was 13 points below. The High School stands out for graduation and 11th-grade NJGPA results: its graduation rate was 97% versus 89% statewide, and its NJGPA English Language Arts and Mathematics results were 9 and 13 points above state results. Yet its listed Algebra I, Geometry, and Algebra II results were below state results. The schools serve different grades, so direct comparisons are limited to matching measures such as End of Course results.
Recent changes are mixed rather than a clear upward trend: across 20 same-test comparisons, the equal-weight average school–state gap moved 1 point farther from the state. The High School improved relative to the state in 4 of 10 comparisons, including grade 9 English Language Arts, while 6 worsened; its Algebra II End of Course result fell 42 points from the prior year. The Middle School improved relative to the state in 6 of 10 comparisons, but grade 7 Mathematics rose 7 points while grade 8 fell 5. SchoolDigger gives both schools three stars; its statewide rankings are the 63rd percentile for the Middle School and 59th for the High School. In 2024–2025, the Middle School had a lower student-teacher ratio (12.1 versus 13.9) and lower chronic absenteeism (8% versus 13%); the free/reduced lunch eligible shares were 19% and 22%, respectively.
