Best Public Schools in Zip Code 07718

Summary:

The 07718 zip code is home to a single elementary school, Bayview Elementary School, which serves grades K-5 and is part of the Middletown Township Public School District. While the district is ranked 193 out of 609 in New Jersey, Bayview Elementary consistently performs well, with proficiency rates on state assessments that generally exceed the district and state averages, particularly in English Language Arts.

Bayview Elementary School has a student population of 337 and a relatively low percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (13.35%), suggesting a relatively affluent student body. The school's per-student spending is $11,243, and it has a low student-teacher ratio of 9.3, which may contribute to its academic success. However, the school's chronic absenteeism rate of 14.9% is slightly higher than the state average, which could be an area for improvement.

Despite its strong academic performance, Bayview Elementary School's statewide ranking has fluctuated in recent years, ranging from 637 out of 1,347 New Jersey elementary schools in 2024-2025 to 752 out of 1,338 in 2023-2024. This suggests that the school's performance may be influenced by factors beyond its own academic outcomes, such as changes in the performance of other schools across the state.
