Summary:
The Roselle Park Public School District in New Jersey is home to a single high school, Roselle Park High School, which serves 641 students in grades 9-12. The school's four-year graduation rate is 91.3%, with a 1.0% dropout rate, indicating strong student retention. However, the school's performance on standardized tests, particularly in mathematics, lags behind both district and state averages.
Roselle Park High School's test scores show room for improvement, with only 18.2% of students proficient or better in NJSLA/Algebra I, 0% proficient or better in NJSLA/Geometry, and 60% proficient or better in NJSLA/Algebra II, compared to state averages of 38.2%, 12.7%, and 80.4%, respectively. The school's science and English Language Arts scores are also below state averages. This suggests a need to focus on strengthening the school's curriculum and instructional practices in these subject areas.
The school's spending per student of $10,753 is in line with the state average, but the high percentage of free and reduced lunch recipients (47.74%) indicates that the school serves a population with significant socioeconomic challenges, which may impact academic performance. Addressing these challenges through targeted support and resources could be a key focus for the district to improve student outcomes at Roselle Park High School.
