Summary:

Shrewsbury Borough School District has one listed school, Shrewsbury Borough Elementary School, serving PK–8 with 439 students. With no other listed schools in the area to compare, families can look at the school’s grade-by-grade results and statewide comparisons. Most importantly, in 2025–2026 the school scored above the state result in every reported ELA, mathematics, science, and Algebra I comparison.

There is no school-to-school top or bottom in this one-school list; within the school, results varied by grade. Its unweighted averages were 79% in ELA versus 51% statewide, 76% in mathematics versus 40%, and 50% in science versus 23%—advantages of 28, 36, and 26 points, respectively. Mathematics had the largest average lead, though the grade-level results were not equally strong: 8th-grade mathematics was 76% versus 23% statewide, while 4th grade was the school’s lowest math result at 70%. ELA ranged from 67% in 6th grade to 88% in 8th. Algebra I was a standout: both the end-of-course and 8th-grade results were 100%, compared with 40% statewide for end-of-course and 75% for 8th grade.

Average results rose from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026 in all three core subjects, but some grade-level results moved in the opposite direction. The biggest exception was 6th grade, where ELA fell 26 points and mathematics fell 24; 8th-grade mathematics rose 28 points, and 8th-grade science rose from 18% to 47%, while the state result remained 19%. SchoolDigger ranked the school 132 of 1,331 schools in 2025–2026 (90th percentile, five stars), up from 237 of 1,347 (82nd percentile, four stars) the year before. Other context for 2024–2025: the student–teacher ratio was 8.4, 1% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible, and chronic absenteeism was 4% versus 14% statewide.
