Summary:
ZIP code 07751 has three schools in Marlboro Township School District: two K–5 schools, Asher Holmes Elementary School and Robertsville Elementary School, plus David C Abbott Early Learning Center, which serves pre-K–K. The two K–5 schools enroll similar numbers of students: 444 at Asher Holmes and 438 at Robertsville. The clearest academic finding is that both tested schools scored well above state results in every reported 2025–2026 grade and subject, by 21 to 36 percentage points.
Neither K–5 school leads across the board: Asher Holmes has the higher average math result across grades 3–5, 76% versus 74% at Robertsville, while Robertsville leads in average ELA, 74% versus 73%, and grade 5 science, 53% versus 51%. The largest difference is in grade 5 math, where Asher Holmes leads by 9 points; Robertsville leads grade 4 ELA by 5 points. Abbott stands out for attendance rather than test results: chronic absenteeism is 16%, compared with 5.6% at Asher Holmes and 5.9% at Robertsville. Abbott serves younger grades and has no test results in the supplied data, so it is not a direct academic comparison.
Across the two test years, the average gap over the state widened in ELA, from 24 to 25 points, and in grade 5 science, from 22 to 24 points, but narrowed in math, from 30 to 28 points. Individual results varied: Robertsville grade 3 math fell 15 points, the largest reported decline, while Asher Holmes grade 5 math rose 6 points. SchoolDigger ranks both K–5 schools near the top statewide in 2025–2026: Asher Holmes ranked 126 of 1,331 (91st percentile) and Robertsville 129 of 1,331 (90th percentile); their rank histories fluctuate rather than rise steadily. Their student-teacher ratios are 11.8 and 10.5, respectively. In 2024–2025, free/reduced lunch eligible students were 13% at Asher Holmes, 14% at Robertsville and 11% at Abbott; these figures are context, not an explanation for results. Test comparisons cover just two years.
