Summary:
The North Brunswick Township School District in New Jersey has one high school, North Brunswick Township High School, which serves students in grades 9-12. The school has faced some challenges, with its statewide ranking dropping from 288 out of 429 high schools in 2023-2024 to 316 out of 434 high schools in 2024-2025, and its academic proficiency rates consistently falling below state averages in areas like English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science.
North Brunswick Township High School has a four-year graduation rate of 91.3%, which is slightly lower than the state average, and a dropout rate of 1.0%, which is relatively low. However, the school's chronic absenteeism rate of 14.9% is higher than the state average. Additionally, the school serves a population with a high percentage (48.37%) of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating significant economic challenges that may contribute to the school's lower academic performance.
In terms of resources, North Brunswick Township High School has a student-teacher ratio of 12.3, which is slightly lower than the state average, but its per-student spending of $9,061 for the 2018-2019 school year was lower than the state average. These factors suggest that the school may need to explore ways to optimize its resource allocation and staffing to better support student learning and address the needs of its economically disadvantaged population.
