Summary

Lake Tract Elementary School serves 409 students in grades 1–5 in Deptford, among a group of nearby elementary schools in several districts. Its 2025–26 results were below state and district results in every tested subject, with mathematics—especially fourth-grade math—the clearest concern.

English Language Arts (ELA) is the school’s strongest subject relative to nearby schools, though results still trail the broader benchmarks: its average across grades 3–5 was 40%, compared with 47% at nearby schools, 46% in the district, and 49% statewide. Math was weaker: 27%, versus 44% nearby, 38% in the district, and 47% statewide. Fourth grade stands out: math proficiency was 17%, compared with 48% at nearby schools, while ELA was 31%, compared with 49%. By contrast, third- and fifth-grade ELA results—42% and 48%—were close to their nearby averages of 43% and 50%. Fifth-grade science was also low at 13%, versus 24% nearby, 22% in the district, and 27% statewide.

Over the four years shown, average math proficiency fell 8 points and science fell 5, while ELA rose 4 points. More recently, fifth-grade science dropped from 32% in 2024–25 to 13% in 2025–26. Deptford Township Public School District’s SchoolDigger ranking for the school is now at the 26th percentile, with 1 star (rank 984 of 1,331); it was at the 40th percentile in 2015–16. SchoolDigger’s statewide effectiveness ranking for Special Education Students was stronger, at the 50th percentile in 2025–26. Its ranking for Hispanic Students was at the 46th percentile, down from the 68th percentile in 2023–24. Other context: the student-teacher ratio was 11.7 in 2024–25, and 38% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible that year. Chronic absenteeism was 11% in 2024–25, below the district’s 12% and state’s 14%.
