Summary

Toms River Intermediate School North is a public middle school serving grades 6-8 in the Toms River Regional School District, with an enrollment of 932 students. While the school has consistently ranked in the middle range of New Jersey middle schools, it faces significant academic challenges, particularly in core subject areas like English Language Arts (ELA) and math.

In the 2024-2025 school year, Toms River Intermediate School North had proficiency rates of 40.3% in 6th grade ELA, 49% in 7th grade ELA, and 47.5% in 8th grade ELA, all well below the state averages. The school also struggles in math, with proficiency rates ranging from 9.7% to 26.4% across grades, significantly lower than the state averages. Additionally, the school has seen a concerning trend of increasing chronic absenteeism, rising from 16.6% in 2022-2023 to 21.7% in the same year, which is much higher than the state's target of 10%.

While the school excels in Algebra, with proficiency rates around 80-83% for 8th grade students taking the Algebra I exam, it underperforms compared to its nearby counterparts, Toms River Intermediate School South and Toms River Intermediate School East, across most academic metrics. For example, in 2024-2025, Toms River Intermediate School East had a 6th grade ELA proficiency rate of 56.2%, significantly higher than the 40.3% at Toms River Intermediate School North. Addressing these academic challenges should be a priority for the school and district to improve student outcomes.
