Summary:

The 08046 zip code of Willingboro, New Jersey is home to 6 elementary schools, serving students from kindergarten through 8th grade. While the overall Willingboro Public School District is underperforming, with a ranking of 579 out of 609 in the state, one school stands out as a bright spot - Hawthorne Park Elementary School.

Hawthorne Park Elementary School ranks 1075 out of 1347 New Jersey elementary schools, the highest among the 6 schools in the zip code. It achieves the strongest proficiency rates in both English Language Arts and Mathematics, exceeding the district and state averages. In contrast, the Benjamin Banneker Preparatory Charter School struggles with Mathematics proficiency, scoring well below the district and state, despite offering a wider grade span from kindergarten through 8th grade.

Across the schools, a concerning trend is the consistently high chronic absenteeism rate of 14.9%, which is likely contributing to the overall academic underperformance. Addressing the root causes of chronic absenteeism should be a priority for the district and individual schools. With the right interventions and by replicating the success of Hawthorne Park Elementary, the schools in this zip code have the potential to improve educational outcomes for their students.
