Summary

William A. Miller Elementary School is a public elementary school serving 324 students in grades K-5 in Old Bridge, New Jersey. The school is part of the Old Bridge Township School District, which is ranked 245 out of 609 districts in the state and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Overall, William A. Miller Elementary School is a middle-performing school within its district and the state, with some areas of strength and some areas that could use improvement. The school's performance varies across different student subgroups, with stronger rankings for Asian and Special Education students compared to its overall ranking. However, the school's performance for White students and English Language Learners is lower. While the school generally performs above the state average in English Language Arts and Mathematics, its 5th-grade Science proficiency rate is lower at 26%.

One notable concern is the school's increasing chronic absenteeism rate, which has risen from 8.5% in 2023-2024 to 16.6% in 2022-2023, higher than the district and state averages. Additionally, the percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch has been rising, from 13.69% in 2021-2022 to 20.37% in 2023-2024, indicating an increasing proportion of economically disadvantaged students. When compared to other elementary schools in the same district, William A. Miller Elementary School generally performs on par or slightly below the district averages, but it outperforms some nearby schools outside the district, such as those in the Spotswood Public School District.
