Summary

Olivet Elementary School is in Pittsgrove, New Jersey, and serves 357 students in grades 2–4. Its 2025–2026 SchoolDigger ranking is 677th of 1,331 New Jersey schools, at the 49th percentile with 2 stars. The key finding for families is a sharp difference by grade: fourth graders perform above state averages in both tested subjects, while third graders remain below state averages in both.

Olivet is among the nearby schools’ leaders in fourth-grade results: it ranks second of eight nearby schools in fourth-grade ELA and in both tested math grades, and third in third-grade ELA. Fourth-grade proficiency was 53% in ELA and 60% in math, compared with state rates of 46% and 47%; third-grade proficiency was 39% in ELA and 40% in math, versus 48% and 49% statewide. The district’s supplied scores match the school’s in every grade and year, so they do not provide a separate district-wide comparison. Nearby results underscore the contrast: Olivet’s fourth-grade scores are especially strong locally, while third-grade scores are below the state in both subjects.

Math scores have risen considerably across the four reported years: third-grade math increased 14 points, from 26% to 40%, and fourth-grade math increased 20 points, from 40% to 60%. ELA gains were smaller: 4 points in third grade and 1 point in fourth. SchoolDigger’s overall percentile rose from 40 to 49 between 2024–2025 and 2025–2026, though the school remains near the middle statewide. Its student-teacher ratio is 11.4 (2024–2025), near the middle of the nearby range. In 2024–2025, 31% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible; only Upper Pittsgrove School had a lower share among nearby schools reporting the same measure. SchoolDigger’s group effectiveness measure places Hispanic Students at the 77th percentile, compared with 49th overall, and that group’s measure rose from the 34th percentile in 2023–2024. Its White Students measure is lower, at the 27th percentile.
