Summary

William L Antheil Elementary School serves 746 students in prekindergarten through grade 5 in Ewing, near Trenton. Its 2025–26 results show math ahead of the district in every tested grade, but a sharp split in ELA performance by grade. The most important takeaway is that grade 3 ELA is a pronounced weak spot, even as Antheil’s grade 4 and 5 results are comparatively strong.

Math proficiency was 32% in grade 3, 42% in grade 4 and 42% in grade 5—about 2, 11 and 6 points above the Ewing Township School District, respectively, but below state results in all three grades. ELA was 26% in grade 3, 40% in grade 4 and 53% in grade 5: grade 3 was 7 points below the district and 22 below the state, while grade 5 was slightly above both. Among nearby schools, Antheil ranked second of four in grade 4 and 5 comparisons, including grade 5 science; its 23% in science was below both district and state results. Grade 3 was less competitive: Antheil ranked sixth of 10 nearby schools with results in both subjects.

Results have improved overall since 2022–23: the three-grade average rose 10 points in ELA and 13 in math, while fifth-grade science rose 12 points. SchoolDigger’s overall standing also improved, from the 23rd percentile and 1 star in 2023–24 to the 36th percentile and 2 stars in 2025–26, though it remains below the state midpoint. In 2024–25, the student-teacher ratio was 11, and 57% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible; these are context, not explanations for test results. SchoolDigger’s statewide ranking suggests stronger results in serving African American students: that group ranked in the 69th percentile, compared with 36th overall. Special Education Students ranked in the 22nd percentile, down from 37th the prior year.
