Mullica Township School District

The Mullica Township School District in New Jersey operates two schools - Mullica Township Primary School and Mullica Township Middle School. The district serves students from pre-kindergarten through 8th grade, with the primary school covering the lower grades and the middle school covering the upper grades.

Based on the data, the Mullica Township Middle School appears to be the stronger performing school in the district. It has higher state-wide rankings, better test scores, and lower chronic absenteeism rates compared to the primary school. One particularly strong area for the middle school is its Algebra I performance, with 82.6% of 8th grade students proficient or better, significantly outpacing the state average.

However, both schools in the Mullica Township School District face significant challenges. Proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Math, and Science are well below state averages across grade levels. Additionally, over 40% of students at both schools qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage in the student population. While the middle school outperforms the primary school, the district as a whole has room for improvement in raising academic achievement for all its students.
