Colts Neck High School up 4 spots statewide this year
Summary:

ZIP code 07722 has four schools serving prekindergarten through grade 12: Conover Road Primary School (PK–2), Conover Road Elementary School (grades 3–5), Cedar Drive Middle School (grades 6–8), and Colts Neck High School (grades 9–12), spanning the Colts Neck Township School District and Freehold Regional High School District. The strongest overall takeaway is that 25 of the 26 reported 2025–26 test results were above state results, with an average margin of 19 percentage points; the exception was Colts Neck High’s Algebra I End of Course result, 9 points below the state.

Cedar Drive Middle School stands out among the schools with scores, averaging 29 points above state results; its largest margin was 58 points in Algebra I End of Course. Conover Road Elementary School also performed consistently well, averaging 18 points above the state and reaching a 33-point advantage in grade 5 math. Colts Neck High School averaged 11 points above the state but had a more uneven profile: Algebra II was 30 points above, while Algebra I End of Course was 9 points below. Conover Road Primary School has no test results in the supplied data, so its achievement cannot be assessed here. Because the schools serve different grades and take different tests, these results are not a direct school-to-school ranking.

Recent trends offer useful distinctions: at Cedar Drive, ELA proficiency fell 13, 12, and 21 percentage points in grades 6, 7, and 8 from 2024–25 to 2025–26, though the school remained above state results. At Conover Road Elementary, grade 5 ELA fell 13 points, while math stayed above the state in all three grades. SchoolDigger’s rankings were steady for Cedar Drive (93rd percentile in 2025–26) and Colts Neck High (74th), while the elementary school declined to the 77th percentile. In 2024–25, free/reduced lunch eligible shares were 4% at Cedar Drive, 3% at Conover Road Elementary, and 24% at Colts Neck High; student-teacher ratios were 7.5, 10.3, and 14.7, respectively. These are context, not explanations for achievement differences.
