Summary

Dane Barse Elementary School is a public elementary school in Vineland, New Jersey, serving 234 students from kindergarten to 5th grade. The school is part of the Vineland Public School District, which is ranked 548 out of 609 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Dane Barse Elementary School has consistently ranked in the bottom 25% of New Jersey elementary schools over the past 10 years, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's performance varies significantly across different student subgroups, with Hispanic and Special Education students performing relatively better than African American and Female students. Dane Barse Elementary School also has consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 14.9% to 30.3% over the past few years, significantly higher than the state average. Proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics are well below the state and district averages, with only 17.1% and 22.9% of 3rd-grade students proficient in these subjects, respectively, in the 2024-2025 school year.

The nearby schools within the Vineland Public School District, such as Dr. William Mennies Elementary School, Solve D'Ippolito Elementary School, and John H. Winslow Elementary School, also perform poorly, with rankings in the bottom 25% of New Jersey elementary schools. This suggests a systemic issue within the district that extends beyond Dane Barse Elementary School. Despite the school's relatively high per-student spending of $17,767 and low student-teacher ratio, these factors do not seem to translate into improved academic outcomes.
