Summary

Harmony Township School is a small public school in Phillipsburg, New Jersey, serving 190 students from pre-K through grade 8. Its latest results show a mixed academic picture, with some subjects and grades doing well and others needing attention. The clearest concern is Mathematics: students averaged 31% proficient across grades 3–8 in 2025–2026, compared with 40% statewide, a gap of 10 percentage points.

The school’s strongest results are in Science and Algebra I, while ELA is close to the state average overall. Science averaged 41% across grades 5 and 8, compared with 23% statewide, and Algebra I End of Course proficiency was 71% versus 40% statewide. ELA averaged 48%, 3 points below the state; grade 5 was a bright spot at 56%, the highest among nearby schools with reported results. By contrast, grade 4 ELA was 23%, compared with 46% statewide. Math varies by grade, too: grade 5 reached 44%, above Belvidere Elementary School, Alpha Borough School, and Pohatcong Township School, but below Franklin Township School. For every listed test result, Harmony’s score matched the Harmony Township School District exactly.

Recent trends are encouraging in ELA but concerning in Math: from 2022–2023 to 2025–2026, the six-grade ELA average rose 8 points, while the Math average fell 9 points. SchoolDigger ranks Harmony at the 37th percentile statewide for 2025–2026 (836th of 1,331 schools, 2 stars), up from the 29th percentile two years earlier. In 2024–2025, the student-teacher ratio was 7.8, and 21% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible. One notable subgroup result is SchoolDigger’s ranking for White students: the school was at the 15th percentile in 2025–2026, down from the 34th percentile the prior year, compared with the school’s overall 37th percentile.
