Summary:
The Mount Laurel Township School District serves students from pre-kindergarten through 8th grade across 8 schools, including 6 elementary schools and 2 middle schools. The district as a whole is ranked 375 out of 609 in New Jersey and is rated 2 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger.
Within the district, a few schools stand out. Countryside Elementary School has the highest 3rd and 4th grade math proficiency rates, while Parkway Elementary School has the highest 4th grade English Language Arts proficiency rate and strong 4th grade math performance. Larchmont Elementary School has the highest 3rd grade English Language Arts proficiency rate in the district.
However, the district also faces some challenges, including higher-than-average chronic absenteeism rates and significant performance gaps between schools, especially in English Language Arts and Math proficiency. Additionally, several schools have seen their statewide rankings decline in recent years. The middle school, T.E. Harrington, stands out for its exceptionally high proficiency rates in Algebra I and Geometry, but the district as a whole struggles with low science proficiency rates.
