Summary:
The Red Bank Borough Public School District in New Jersey has only one elementary school, Red Bank Primary School, which serves students from pre-kindergarten through 6th grade. The school has faced significant challenges in recent years, with a consistent decline in its performance and ranking among New Jersey elementary schools.
Red Bank Primary School has consistently ranked in the bottom half of New Jersey elementary schools, dropping from a 2 out of 5 SchoolDigger rating in 2022-2023 to a 1 out of 5 rating in the last two school years. In the 2024-2025 school year, the school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts (30%) and Mathematics (31.3%) for 3rd-grade students were significantly lower than the state averages (44.9% and 49.8%, respectively). Additionally, the school serves a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, at 75.3% in the 2023-2024 school year.
Despite the school's relatively low student-teacher ratio of 9:1 in the 2023-2024 school year and a per-student spending of $12,728 for the 2018-2019 school year, the data suggests that the school is struggling to provide a high-quality education to its students. The district and school leadership should prioritize investigating the root causes of these challenges and implementing targeted strategies to improve student outcomes at Red Bank Primary School.
