Summary

Deerfield Township Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades PK-8 in Rosenhayn, New Jersey, with 316 students. The school is part of the Deerfield Township School District, which is ranked 547 out of 609 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Academically, Deerfield Township Elementary School consistently performs below the state average on standardized tests across all grade levels and subjects. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, the percentage of students proficient or better in English Language Arts ranged from 11.1% to 50%, compared to the state average of 44.9% to 57.1%. In Mathematics, the proficiency rates ranged from 11.1% to 41.7%, compared to the state average of 20.7% to 49.8%. The school also has a high percentage of economically disadvantaged students, with 49.37% qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in the 2023-2024 school year, and a significantly higher chronic absenteeism rate than the state average.

When compared to nearby schools, such as Dane Barse Elementary School in Vineland, Deerfield Township Elementary School generally performs worse academically, with lower proficiency rates in both English Language Arts and Mathematics. However, the school's Hispanic student population performs better academically than the White student population, which is an interesting finding that warrants further investigation. Despite the school's relatively low student-teacher ratio, the academic outcomes do not seem to be positively impacted, suggesting the need for a comprehensive review of the school's educational practices and support systems to address the underlying issues and improve student learning and achievement.
