Summary:
The Netcong School District consists of a single school, Netcong Elementary School, which serves grades PK-8 with a total enrollment of 280 students. The school's academic performance is mixed, with some grade levels performing above the state average in English Language Arts but below average in Mathematics and Science.
Netcong Elementary School has a statewide ranking in the bottom half of New Jersey elementary schools, with proficiency rates ranging from 27.6% to 80.7% in English Language Arts and 21.1% to 55.3% in Mathematics across different grade levels. The school's Science proficiency rates are also below the state average, ranging from 15.3% to 25.8% for 5th and 8th grade. Additionally, the school has a relatively high chronic absenteeism rate of 14.9% and a significant population of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch at 38.21%.
Despite the school's academic challenges, it does have a low student-teacher ratio of 8.2, which could be an advantage in providing more individualized attention for students. However, without comparative data from other schools or districts, it is difficult to fully assess the school's performance and identify areas for targeted interventions and support. Expanding the data set to include more schools in the area would provide valuable context and allow for a more comprehensive analysis of the educational landscape in the Netcong School District.
