Summary

Raymond E. Voorhees Elementary School is a public K-5 school in Old Bridge, New Jersey, part of the Old Bridge Township School District. With 395 students, the school has shown strong academic performance, particularly in English Language Arts (ELA).

In the 2024-2025 school year, Voorhees Elementary's 4th grade ELA proficiency rate was 79.3%, significantly higher than the district (67.8%) and state (53.6%) averages. The school also outperformed the district and state in 3rd and 5th grade ELA. Voorhees has performed well for several student subgroups, ranking in the top 20% of New Jersey elementary schools for Hispanic students and low socioeconomic status students in ELA, as well as the top 25% for female students.

Compared to nearby schools like Virgil I. Grissom Elementary and Southwood Elementary, Voorhees consistently outperforms them in both ELA and Mathematics proficiency. However, the school's chronic absenteeism rate has increased in recent years, reaching 16.6% in 2022-2023, an area of concern the school and district should address.
