Rahway Public School District


Summary:

The Rahway Public School District in New Jersey serves students from pre-kindergarten through 12th grade across 6 schools, including 4 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. The district faces significant challenges in improving academic performance, particularly at the middle and high school levels, with most schools performing below state averages on standardized assessments.

Among the elementary schools, Franklin Elementary School stands out as the top performer, with 65.2% of 6th graders proficient or better in English Language Arts and 21.3% proficient or better in Mathematics. In contrast, Roosevelt Elementary School and Grover Cleveland Elementary School lag behind their peers. At the middle school level, the Rahway 7th & 8th Grade Academy has the lowest statewide ranking among the district's schools, with performance on state assessments significantly below the state averages.

At the high school level, Rahway High School faces its own set of challenges, with low performance on state assessments compared to the state average, despite a strong 91.1% four-year graduation rate and a low 1.2% dropout rate. The district's high rates of poverty and chronic absenteeism likely contribute to these academic challenges and will need to be addressed to drive student success across all grade levels.
