Summary

Emma Havens Young Elementary School is a public elementary school in Brick, New Jersey, serving 833 students in grades K-5 as part of the Brick Township Public School District.

Additionally, the school has had high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 14.9% to 21.1% over the past few years, which is higher than the district and state averages.

Tuesday, February 12, 2013

This may just seem like a regular school, but our sources come from the kids. One kid says "They try to make school super fun, but they try too hard. Many teacher are rude or just get annoyed about small things." That made us start thinking if it is the teachers fault for the ratings of this school. Close Quote
