Summary

Chatsworth Elementary School is a small public elementary school serving grades PK-8 in the Woodland Township School District in Chatsworth, New Jersey. With just 103 students, the school has consistently ranked in the bottom quarter of New Jersey elementary schools, receiving a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger for most years.

Chatsworth Elementary faces several key challenges. The school has high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 14.9% to 19.1% in recent years, significantly higher than the state average. Student performance on state assessments is also poor, with only 35.7% of 3rd graders proficient in ELA and just 28.6% proficient in math, compared to 44.9% and 41.5% statewide, respectively. While the school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 6.1 to 7.3 students per teacher, this has not translated to improved outcomes.

Compared to nearby schools, such as Southampton Township School #2 and Southampton Township School #1, Chatsworth Elementary has significantly lower test scores and higher chronic absenteeism, despite having a more favorable student-teacher ratio and lower rates of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. This suggests that factors beyond just student demographics and staffing levels are contributing to the school's poor performance, which has steadily declined over time.
