Summary

Great Meadows Regional Middle School is a public middle school serving grades 4-8 in the Great Meadows Regional School District, with 349 students. The school consistently performs above the state average in both English Language Arts and Mathematics across all grade levels, making it a strong-performing middle school in the region.

One of the school's key strengths is its performance for specific student subgroups. In 2023-2024, the Hispanic student subgroup ranked 174 out of 589 New Jersey middle schools, while the Special Education subgroup ranked 155 out of 510, both earning 4-star ratings. This suggests the school has effective strategies in place to support the learning needs of diverse student populations. Additionally, the school has a relatively low percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, with only 14.9% receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating the school may have additional resources to support student learning.

When compared to nearby middle schools, such as Black River Middle School, Great Meadows Regional Middle School generally outperforms its peers in test scores and subgroup performance. For example, the school's 6th grade English Language Arts proficiency rate of 72.8% in 2024-2025 was significantly higher than the state average of 56.1%. While the school performs well overall, there are a few areas where it could potentially improve, such as the 8th grade Mathematics proficiency rate, which is lower than the state average.
