Summary

Bradley Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Asbury Park, New Jersey, serving grades 3-6 with a total enrollment of 336 students. The school is part of the Asbury Park School District, which is ranked 595 out of 609 school districts in New Jersey and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Bradley Elementary School consistently ranks among the lowest-performing elementary schools in New Jersey, with academic performance significantly below the state average in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 13% of 3rd graders, 12.6% of 4th graders, 6.7% of 5th graders, and 15.6% of 6th graders were proficient or better in ELA, compared to the state averages of 44.9%, 53.6%, 52.7%, and 56.1%, respectively. The school's performance on student subgroup metrics is also concerning, ranking in the bottom 10-20% of New Jersey elementary schools for African American, Hispanic, English Language Learner, Special Education, and Low Socioeconomic Status students.

In contrast, nearby schools in neighboring districts, such as Shark River Hills Elementary School and Bradley Beach Elementary School, have significantly higher academic performance, with proficiency rates often exceeding the state averages. Despite the relatively high per-student spending of $18,986 and low student-teacher ratio at Bradley Elementary School, the school has been unable to improve its academic outcomes, suggesting that the Asbury Park School District and the broader community may need to implement comprehensive strategies to address the systemic issues affecting the school and its students.
