Summary:
Roselle Park Public School District has a single Roselle Park Middle School serving grades 6-8. The school's academic performance has consistently ranked in the bottom half of New Jersey middle schools, with below-average proficiency rates in core subjects like English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science compared to state averages.
Roselle Park Middle School's performance is rated 2 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger, indicating it is underperforming. The school's Mathematics proficiency rates are particularly low, ranging from 10.9% to 36.2% across grades 6-8, significantly below the state average. Science proficiency is also very low at just 5.2% in 8th grade, compared to the state average of 19%. While the school's English Language Arts proficiency is slightly below the state average, the significant gaps in Mathematics and Science suggest the need for improvement in these critical subject areas.
With a relatively high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch at 48.76%, Roselle Park Public School District may face challenges in ensuring equitable access to educational resources and opportunities. The school's below-average per-student spending of $7,441 in the 2018-2019 school year could also be a contributing factor to its academic performance challenges. Addressing these areas of concern through targeted interventions and a focus on continuous improvement could be crucial for the school's long-term success and the overall educational outcomes of the district.
