Summary:

The 07004 zip code area is home to two public high schools, Essex Campus Academy and Essex High School, both of which are part of the Essex Regional Educational Services Commission district. However, neither school appears to be a standout performer, with both receiving very low statewide rankings and poor ratings from SchoolDigger.

Essex Campus Academy has an enrollment of 50 students and a 54% free and reduced lunch rate, indicating a high-poverty student population. The school's student-teacher ratio is 25:1. In contrast, Essex High School has an even smaller enrollment of just 8 students and an unusually low student-teacher ratio of 1.6:1, which may suggest the school is struggling to maintain a viable student population.

Overall, the data paints a concerning picture of the high schools in the 07004 zip code area. Both schools have extremely low statewide rankings, with Essex High School ranked 412 out of 415 New Jersey high schools and Essex Campus Academy ranked 387 out of 415. This suggests that these schools are performing poorly compared to their peers and may be facing significant challenges in providing a quality education to their students.
