Summary:
The Springfield Township School District in New Jersey has only one school, Springfield Township School, which serves elementary students. The school has seen a decline in its statewide ranking over the past few years, dropping from 373 out of 1,342 New Jersey elementary schools in 2022-2023 to 632 out of 1,347 in 2024-2025. While the school performs above the state average in some grade levels and subjects on the NJSLA assessments, it also falls below the state average in others.
The school has a relatively low percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, suggesting a relatively affluent student population. However, the school's chronic absenteeism rate is 14.9% in 2023-2024, which is higher than the state's target of 10% or less. The school's per-student spending for the 2018-2019 school year was $15,391, which is higher than the state average, and it has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 13.1 to 1 in 2023-2024, indicating a relatively small class size.
Overall, the data suggests that the Springfield Township School District and its sole school, Springfield Township School, have some areas of strength, such as resource allocation, but also face challenges in maintaining consistent academic performance and addressing attendance issues. Further investigation and targeted interventions may be needed to improve the school's overall performance and ensure that all students are receiving a high-quality education.
