Piscataway Township School District

Summary:

The Piscataway Township School District in New Jersey serves students from preschool through 12th grade across 11 schools, including 7 elementary schools, 3 middle schools, and 1 high school. The district overall performs slightly above the state average, with several standout schools that consistently rank among the top in their respective categories.

Conackamack Middle School is a top performer, ranking in the top 30% of New Jersey middle schools and earning 4 out of 5 stars from SchoolDigger. It has strong test scores, particularly in English Language Arts, and a relatively low chronic absenteeism rate. Randolphville Elementary School also stands out, ranking in the top 35% of New Jersey elementary schools and earning 4 out of 5 stars. It has impressive test scores, especially in mathematics, and a relatively low free/reduced lunch rate. Additionally, Knollwood Elementary School has seen a significant improvement in its ranking, moving from the bottom half of New Jersey elementary schools to the top 25% over the past few years.

While the district overall performs well, there are some areas for improvement, such as the high chronic absenteeism rate and the variability in free/reduced lunch rates across schools. Addressing these issues could help to further improve student outcomes. The district may also want to explore ways to share best practices and resources across all schools to help raise the overall level of achievement.
