Summary

Hammonton High School is a public school serving grades 9–12 in Hammonton, New Jersey, with 1,315 students. Its graduation rate is a bright spot: 92% in 2024–2025, compared with 89% statewide and the same rate in the Hammonton School District. But chronic absenteeism was 22%, above the state’s 14% and the district’s 16%. The clearest academic concern is that strong Geometry results contrast with a pronounced weakness in Algebra I end-of-course testing.

Geometry is the school’s strongest subject compared with nearby schools and the state: 58% of ninth graders were proficient, versus 50% statewide and a 41% nearby-school average; the end-of-course result was 55%, above the state’s 52% and the nearby average of 39%. Algebra I end-of-course proficiency was just 16%, compared with 40% statewide and 32% in the district. Ninth-grade Algebra I was also below the nearby-school average, at 16% versus 17%. Grade-11 science was another weak area: 20% proficiency, below the state’s 29% and the nearby-school average of 23%. Ninth-grade English Language Arts was about level with nearby schools, at 46% versus a 47% average.

Several results have declined: over four years, ninth-grade English proficiency fell 6 percentage points, Algebra I end-of-course proficiency fell 4 points, and Geometry end-of-course proficiency fell 15 points from its earlier high. SchoolDigger gives the school 2 stars and a 42nd-percentile statewide rank for 2025–2026, down from the 80th percentile in 2015–2016. Its student-teacher ratio was 13.9 in 2024–2025, compared with a nearby-school average of about 12.5; 35% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible that year, below the nearby average of 43%. SchoolDigger’s statewide ranking for English Language Learner Students was at the 15th percentile, compared with the school’s overall 42nd percentile, after falling from 45 over two years. Its ranking for Low Socio Economic Status Students was at the 32nd percentile, down from 73 in 2023–2024.
