Summary:
The Wanaque School District in New Jersey operates two elementary schools, Wanaque Elementary School and Haskell Elementary School, which serve students from pre-kindergarten through 6th grade. Both schools are performing relatively well compared to state averages, with some notable differences between the two.
Wanaque Elementary School stands out for its exceptional performance on the NJSLA Algebra I exam, with 90.9% of students scoring proficient or better, significantly higher than the state average of 72.7%. In contrast, Haskell Elementary School excels in mathematics performance more broadly, with higher percentages of students scoring proficient or better in NJSLA Mathematics across multiple grade levels compared to the district and state averages.
Both schools have slightly higher chronic absenteeism rates than the state average, but they also have lower student-teacher ratios, indicating smaller class sizes and potentially more individualized attention for students. The Wanaque School District as a whole appears to be performing well, with both schools ranking in the top half of New Jersey elementary schools according to the SchoolDigger rankings. The district's investment in its schools and focus on advanced academics are particularly noteworthy.
