Summary

Crim Primary School is an elementary school located in Bridgewater-Raritan Regional School District, serving grades PK-4 with a total enrollment of 381 students. The school consistently outperforms the state average in both English Language Arts (ELA) and Mathematics proficiency rates across grades 3 and 4, with 81.8% of 4th graders proficient or better in ELA and 79.6% in Mathematics, compared to the state averages of 53.6% and 46.7%, respectively.

Crim Primary School also performs exceptionally well for certain student subgroups, ranking 105th out of 1,023 New Jersey elementary schools for its special education students and 59th out of 1,023 for its low socioeconomic status students. Additionally, the school has seen a decrease in chronic absenteeism, from 16.6% in 2022-2023 to 8.0% in 2023-2024, indicating improved student attendance. Compared to nearby schools in the Bridgewater-Raritan Regional School District, Crim Primary School generally outperforms its counterparts in both ELA and Mathematics proficiency rates, with the exception of Hamilton Primary School, which performs similarly or slightly better in some areas.

Crim Primary School's strong academic performance is further highlighted by its relatively low percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients, at around 7% in the 2023-2024 school year, compared to other nearby schools like Smalley Elementary School (77.58%) and Van Derveer Elementary School (38.15%), which have much higher rates of economically disadvantaged students. Additionally, the school's spending per student ($11,542 in 2018-2019) is higher than the state average, but lower than some of the higher-performing nearby schools, such as Mt. Horeb School ($18,115) and Angelo L. Tomaso School ($15,785).
