Summary:
The Springfield Public School District in New Jersey is home to a single high school, Jonathan Dayton High School, which serves students in grades 9-12. The school's performance has fluctuated in recent years, with its statewide ranking ranging from 168 to 228 out of 422-434 New Jersey high schools, and its SchoolDigger rating varying between 2 and 3 stars out of 5.
While Jonathan Dayton High School's four-year graduation rate of 91.3% is above the state average, its proficiency rates in some lower-level assessments, such as NJSLA/English Language Arts, NJSLA/Algebra I, NJSLA/Geometry, and NJSLA-S/Science, are generally lower than the district and state averages. However, the school's performance on the NJGPA/English Language Arts and NJGPA/Mathematics assessments for 11th-grade students is stronger, suggesting that the school may be better equipped to prepare students for more advanced academic challenges.
The school's student-teacher ratio of 13.4 is slightly lower than the state average, and its per-student spending of $13,994 for the 2018-2019 school year was higher than the state average. However, the school's chronic absenteeism rate of 14.9% is higher than the state average, which could be a factor impacting the school's overall performance and may warrant further investigation.
