Woodlynne Boro Public School

Woodlynne Boro Public School serves 407 students from pre-K through grade 8 in Woodlynne, New Jersey. In 2025–26, SchoolDigger placed the school at the 22nd percentile statewide and gave it one star. Its clearest challenge is that results fall below state averages in most tested grades: average scores were 29% in ELA versus 51% statewide, 27% in math versus 40%, and 9% in science versus 23%. The most important finding is that the school’s standout results in a few grades do not change the overall picture of below-state performance, especially in ELA and science.

There are meaningful differences by grade, and some middle-grade results compare well with nearby schools. Third-grade math was 55%, 5 points above the state and second-highest among nine nearby schools with a score. The school also had the highest reported ELA results in grades 6–8 among three nearby K–8 comparators, although all three scores remained below state benchmarks. Its grade 5 science result was weaker locally, fourth-lowest among nine nearby schools with results. Algebra I end-of-course was about 40%, just above the state result of just under 40%. Test results supplied for the school match those for the Woodlynne School District.

Results have shifted over time: from 2022–23 to 2025–26, the ELA average fell 6 points, math rose 2 points, science fell 4 points, and Algebra I end-of-course rose 11 points. Chronic absenteeism improved, dropping 18 points from 26% in 2021–22 to 9% in 2024–25, below the state’s 14%. In 2024–25, 80% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible, compared with a nearby-school average of 45%; the student–teacher ratio was 9.5, near the local average. SchoolDigger’s subgroup rankings show a stronger reported standing for English Language Learners: 67th percentile in 2025–26 versus 22nd overall. Special Education’s ranking was much lower in 2024–25, at the 6th percentile versus 28th the previous year. These are school rankings for serving groups, not measures of the students themselves.
