Summary

Stow Creek Township School is a small elementary school serving grades PK-8 in Bridgeton, New Jersey, with just 136 students. The school is part of the Stow Creek Township School District, which is ranked 179 out of 609 districts in the state and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Stow Creek Township School consistently outperforms the nearby schools, particularly those in the Bridgeton City School District, in academic achievement. The school has maintained above-average proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics, with 75% proficiency in ELA for grades 5-8 compared to the state average of 52.7-57%, and Math proficiency ranging from 56.3% to 58.4% for grades 3-7, outperforming the state average of 38.8-49.8%. Additionally, the school's Science proficiency rates are above the state average.

One factor that may contribute to Stow Creek Township School's academic success is its small size and very low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 4.9 to 9.6 over the past few years, significantly lower than the nearby schools. The school also has a relatively low percentage of free/reduced lunch recipients, ranging from 19.51% to 30.88%, compared to the higher rates of 42.35% to 78.33% at the nearby Bridgeton City and other schools. This suggests a more affluent student population, which may also play a role in the school's strong academic performance.
