Summary:
The three public schools in Little Falls Township Public School District serve PK–2, grades 3–4, and grades 5–8 in Little Falls Township. In 2025–26, every reported test result at School #1 and School #3 was above the state result for the same grade. The most important finding is that both schools with scores beat their same-grade state results, though the size of the advantage varies widely.
School #1 stands out most in mathematics: its grades 5–8 average was 68%, compared with 37% for the same state grades, a 32-point advantage; its reported Algebra I proficiency was 100%, 60 points above the state. School #3 had a smaller average advantage, 11 points in ELA and 9 in mathematics. Its grade 3 ELA result was 13 points above the state, while its grade 3 mathematics edge was only 3 points. School #1 also had a narrow edge in grade 5 science—1 point above the state. School #2 has no test scores listed, so it cannot be ranked against the others by test results.
Recent results are mixed: School #1’s average ELA score fell 6 points from 2024–25, while its mathematics average rose 6 points and its state-relative math advantage grew 5 points. At School #3, grade 3 ELA rose 13 points, but grade 4 fell 17. SchoolDigger rankings improved in 2025–26 for both: #1 ranked 88th of 743 schools, up from 137th of 752, and #3 ranked 448th of 1,331, up from 482nd of 1,347; neither returned to its 2023–24 percentile. In 2024–25, student-teacher ratios were 9.4 at #1, 11.6 at #2, and 12.7 at #3; free/reduced lunch eligible rates that year were 28%, 27%, and 35%, respectively. These measures describe school context, not causes of achievement. Because the schools with test results serve different grades, their scores are not direct school-to-school comparisons.
