Summary:
The Quinton Township School District in New Jersey consists of a single elementary school, Quinton Township School, serving grades PK-8. The school's performance data suggests it is underperforming compared to state averages, ranking 971 out of 1,347 New Jersey elementary schools and earning a 1 out of 5-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Quinton Township School's proficiency rates on standardized tests are consistently lower than the state averages across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, the school's 3rd grade English Language Arts proficiency rate was 20% compared to the state average of 44.9%, and the 3rd grade math proficiency rate was 16.7% compared to the state's 49.8%. The school's chronic absenteeism rate of 14.9% in 2023-2024 also exceeds the state's target of 10% or less.
Despite the school's relatively high per-student spending of $11,907 in 2018-2019 and a low student-teacher ratio of 9.2, these resources have not translated into strong academic outcomes. The school's high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, at 42.35% in 2023-2024, suggests it may be serving a population with significant socioeconomic challenges, which can impact academic achievement. The data indicates that Quinton Township School may benefit from implementing targeted interventions and strategies to address the specific needs of its student population and improve academic performance.
