Upper Saddle River School District

The Upper Saddle River School District is a high-performing school district in New Jersey, serving students from three schools: two elementary schools (Edith A. Bogert Elementary School and Robert D Reynolds Primary School) and one middle school (Emil A. Cavallini Middle School). The district is known for its exceptional academic performance, with the middle school consistently ranking among the top in the state.

The standout school in the district is Emil A. Cavallini Middle School, which has a statewide ranking of 34 out of 743 middle schools and a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's test scores are exceptional, with over 75% of students proficient or better in English Language Arts and Mathematics across all grade levels, significantly higher than the state averages. The other schools in the district, Edith A. Bogert Elementary School and Robert D Reynolds Primary School, also demonstrate strong academic performance, with over 70% proficiency in English Language Arts and Mathematics.

The Upper Saddle River School District serves a relatively affluent community, as evidenced by the low free/reduced lunch rates across all three schools, ranging from 0.79% to 0.84%. The district also allocates significant resources to support student learning, with higher-than-average spending per student and low student-teacher ratios. However, the district may need to address the higher-than-average chronic absenteeism rate of 16.6% across all schools.
