Summary

Hampton Borough School is an elementary school serving grades PK-5 in Hampton, New Jersey, with an enrollment of 111 students. The school is part of the Hampton Borough School District, which is ranked 354 out of 609 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

One of the key challenges facing Hampton Borough School is its high chronic absenteeism rates, which have ranged from 14.9% to 28.8% in recent years, significantly higher than the state average. In comparison, nearby schools like Brass Castle School, Franklin Township School, and Mansfield Township Elementary have chronic absenteeism rates around 14.9%, which is still high but lower than Hampton Borough School. Additionally, the school's test scores are generally below the state and district averages across all grade levels and subjects, with only 14.3% of 3rd graders proficient or better in ELA and 7.1% in mathematics, compared to the state averages of 44.9% and 49.8%, respectively.

Another factor that sets Hampton Borough School apart is its relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 20.39% to 25.23% in recent years, which is higher than the rates at nearby schools like Brass Castle School (17.81%), Franklin Township School (19.07%), and Mansfield Township Elementary (36.21%). This suggests that the school serves a population with lower socioeconomic status, which may be a contributing factor to its lower academic performance.
