Summary

Roselle Park High School is a public high school serving grades 9-12 in Roselle Park, New Jersey, with 641 students. The school is part of the Roselle Park Public School District, which is ranked 422 out of 609 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Academically, Roselle Park High School's performance on standardized tests is generally below the state average, particularly in mathematics. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 18.2% of 10th-grade students were proficient or better in NJSLA/Algebra I, compared to the state average of 38.2%. However, the school performs better in NJGPA/English Language Arts for 11th grade, with 87.8% of students proficient or better, exceeding the state average of 80.7%. The school's four-year graduation rate is relatively high, ranging from 91.1% to 96.4% in recent years, and its dropout rate is low, between 0.6% and 1.2%.

Compared to nearby high schools, Roselle Park High School's academic performance is generally lower than that of Cranford High School and David Brearley Middle/High School, but it outperforms some other nearby schools, such as Hillside High School and Abraham Clark High School. The school's relatively high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, ranging from 43.81% to 47.74% eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, may be a contributing factor to its lower overall academic performance, though the school's strong performance for this subgroup suggests it is effectively supporting these students.
