Summary:
Zip code 07820 has two schools in the Allamuchy Township School District: Mountain Villa School serves PK–2, and Allamuchy Township School serves grades 3–8. The most important finding is that results at Allamuchy vary sharply by grade: grade 3 stands out, while grade 6 is a substantial concern.
Allamuchy Township School has the strongest reported results in grade 3 and Algebra I. In 2025–2026, grade 3 proficiency was 82% in ELA—34 points above the state—and 88% in math, 39 points above. Algebra I proficiency was 88% in both the eighth-grade and end-of-course results, exceeding state results by 14 and 48 points, respectively. Grade 6 was the clearest low point: ELA proficiency was 24%, 27 points below the state, and math was 20%, 20 points below. Mountain Villa School serves younger grades, and no test scores were supplied for it, so a direct performance comparison between the schools is not possible.
Allamuchy’s results improved overall from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026: its average across grades rose from 49% to 56% in ELA and from 35% to 42% in math. It went from below the state average in both subjects to above it, though grade-level results remained uneven. SchoolDigger’s reported ranking fell from the 64th percentile in 2023–2024 to the 57th in 2025–2026. As context, Allamuchy enrolls 253 students, has a student–teacher ratio of 11.3, and had 12% of students free/reduced lunch eligible in 2024–2025; Mountain Villa enrolls 173, has a ratio of 18.7, and had 6% free/reduced lunch eligible that year. The schools’ differing grade spans and the absence of Mountain Villa scores mean these figures do not establish a relationship between those measures and achievement.
