Summary:
The Rahway Public School District in New Jersey is home to 4 elementary schools serving students from pre-kindergarten through 5th grade. While the schools generally underperform compared to state averages, Franklin Elementary School stands out as the highest-performing school in the district, with stronger proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics than its peers.
However, all 4 schools - Franklin Elementary, Roosevelt Elementary, Grover Cleveland Elementary, and Madison Elementary - rank in the bottom third of New Jersey elementary schools, indicating a systemic issue within the district. Chronic absenteeism is a concern, with all schools reporting a rate of 16.6%, higher than the state average.
While Madison Elementary outperforms the district average in some grade levels, the schools generally lag behind state averages in English Language Arts and Mathematics proficiency. Disparities in per-student spending and student-teacher ratios across the schools suggest a need for more equitable resource allocation within the Rahway Public School District.
