Top rankedWashington Elementary School808^th of 1,347 New Jersey elementary schools

Summary:

The 07643 zip code in New Jersey is home to a single elementary school, Washington Elementary School, which serves students from the Little Ferry Public School District. The school's performance has shown some fluctuations in recent years, with its statewide ranking ranging from 615 out of 1,338 New Jersey elementary schools in 2023-2024 to 808 out of 1,347 in 2024-2025.

Washington Elementary School's academic performance on NJSLA (New Jersey Student Learning Assessment) tests has been mixed, with proficiency rates in English Language Arts slightly below the state average for both 3rd and 4th grades in 2024-2025. In Mathematics, the 3rd-grade proficiency rate was below the state average, while the 4th-grade rate was significantly lower. However, in the previous year (2023-2024), the school's performance was better, with 4th-grade English Language Arts proficiency exceeding the state average and 3rd-grade Mathematics proficiency also above the state level.

The school serves a population with significant economic challenges, as indicated by the high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (35.67% in 2023-2024). This factor may contribute to the school's academic performance and could require additional support and resources to address the needs of these students. On a positive note, the school's relatively low student-teacher ratio of 10.2 in 2023-2024 may allow for more individualized attention and support for students, though more information would be needed to fully assess the school's strengths and areas for improvement.
