Summary:
Elementary schools in ZIP code 07760 are represented by one school, Deane-Porter Elementary School, which serves pre-K through grade 3 and enrolls 411 students. The available test results are for grade 3. The clearest takeaway is that the school’s proficiency rates were well above New Jersey’s in both English language arts (ELA) and math in both reported years.
There is no local school-to-school leader or bottom school in this one-school list; instead, Deane-Porter stands out against state results. In 2025–2026, about 84% of its grade 3 students were proficient in ELA and 88% in math, compared with 48% and 49% statewide—a lead of 36 and 39 percentage points. In 2024–2025, its rates were 76% in ELA and 93% in math, versus 45% and 50% statewide, leads of 31 and 43 points. SchoolDigger ranked the school 26th of 1,331 New Jersey schools in 2025–2026 and 33rd of 1,347 the year before; it ranked the Rumson Borough School District 5th of 607.
Results moved in different directions: ELA rose 7 points from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026, while math fell 5 points. Even so, ELA’s advantage over the state widened by 4 points, while math’s narrowed by 4 points; math remained the stronger subject relative to state results, but the difference between subjects became smaller. Other measures offer context, not an explanation for achievement: the student-teacher ratio was 10.7 in 2024–2025, and the school’s free/reduced lunch eligible measure was 1% in 2022–2023. Chronic absenteeism was 6% in 2024–2025, below the district’s 7% and the state’s 14%. Because only one school is listed, families cannot compare these measures with another school in the ZIP code.
