Summary

Woodrow Wilson is an elementary school located in Neptune City, New Jersey, serving grades PK-8 with a total enrollment of 269 students. The school is part of the Neptune City School District, which is ranked 571 out of 609 districts in the state and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Woodrow Wilson has consistently ranked in the bottom 20% of New Jersey elementary schools over the past 10 years, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's performance is particularly low for certain student subgroups, such as female students, male students, Hispanic students, and students with low socioeconomic status. Woodrow Wilson has also experienced high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 14.9% to 30.8% over the past few years, significantly higher than the state average. The school's proficiency rates on the NJSLA assessments are consistently below the state and district averages across all grade levels and subject areas, with proficiency rates ranging from 0% to 52.4% in English Language Arts and 0% to 41.7% in Mathematics.

Woodrow Wilson's performance is significantly lower than that of nearby schools, such as Summerfield Elementary School, Shark River Hills Elementary School, and Belmar Elementary, which all have higher rankings, proficiency rates, and lower chronic absenteeism. The high rates of chronic absenteeism and economic disadvantage among Woodrow Wilson's students may be contributing to the school's low academic performance, and addressing these underlying issues could be crucial in improving student outcomes.
