Summary

Middle Township Elementary #4 in Cape May Court House serves 544 students in grades 6–8. Its 2025–2026 results show a clear grade-by-grade split: ELA proficiency is below the state at all three grades, and math is especially weak in grades 6 and 7. The most important concern is seventh-grade ELA, where 35% proficiency is 21 percentage points below the state and the lowest result among nearby schools serving that grade.

The school’s strongest results are in eighth-grade math and Algebra I, not across all grades. Eighth-grade math proficiency was 31%, above the state’s 23% and the nearby-school average of 20%; it was slightly above the district’s 30.7%. All eighth-grade students were proficient in Algebra I, compared with 75% statewide and 90%–97% at nearby schools with reported results. In contrast, sixth-grade math was 19%, 22 points below the state, and seventh-grade math was 28%, 10 points below. ELA proficiency was 34%, 35% and 41% in grades 6, 7 and 8, respectively, below state results at each grade. The school matched the Middle Township Public School District in grades 6 and 7 ELA and math.

Recent trends are mixed: from 2022–2023 to 2025–2026, the average ELA result across grades 6–8 fell from 39% to 37%, while the math average rose from 23% to 26%; sixth-grade math declined from 22% to 19%, while eighth-grade math improved from 22% to 31%. SchoolDigger places the school at the 35th percentile with 2 stars, fifth among seven nearby schools with rankings. In 2024–2025, 54% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible, compared with a 46% nearby-school average, and the student-teacher ratio was 12.6. SchoolDigger’s student-group rankings show a higher standing for English Language Learner Students: the school ranked at the 52nd percentile for this group in 2024–2025, versus the overall 37th percentile. Its ranking for African American Students fell from the 38th percentile in 2024–2025 to the 22nd in 2025–2026, while the overall ranking shifted from the 37th to the 35th percentile.
