Summary

Field Street School is an elementary school located in Carneys Point, New Jersey, serving grades 1-3 with a total enrollment of 493 students. The school is part of the Penns Grove-Carneys Point Regional School District, which is ranked 594 out of 609 districts in New Jersey and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Field Street School faces several challenges, including consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 14.9% to 25.5% over the past few years, which are significantly higher than the state average and the rates of nearby schools like Paul W Carleton (14.9%) and Lafayette-Pershing (14.9%). Additionally, the school's academic performance, as measured by the percentage of students proficient or better in NJSLA English Language Arts and Mathematics, is consistently lower than the state average and the performance of nearby schools.

Another notable factor is the school's high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 71.15% to 81.14% over the past few years, which is significantly higher than the rates of nearby schools like Governor Charles C. Stratton (20.24%) and Logan Township Elementary School (19.87%). This suggests that the school serves a predominantly low-income population, which may contribute to the school's challenges in academic performance and attendance.
