Summary:
ZIP code 08533 has two elementary schools in Plumsted Township School District: Dr. Gerald H. Woehr Elementary School, serving grades 1–6, and New Egypt Primary School, serving pre-K–K. The supplied test results cover Woehr but not Primary, so families cannot use these data to compare the schools’ academic performance. Woehr’s clearest strength is mathematics: it was above the state in all four tested grades in 2025–2026, with advantages of 4 to 14 percentage points.
Woehr’s ELA results were less consistent: grade 5 was 9 points above the state, but grade 6 was 12 points below; across grades 3–6, its average was 48% versus 49% statewide. New Egypt Primary stands out for chronic absenteeism, not test results: in 2024–2025, its rate was 36%, compared with 24% at Woehr, 20% districtwide, and 14% statewide. Primary’s absenteeism was 21 points above the state rate. Because no test results are supplied for Primary, the data cannot identify an academically strongest or weakest school.
Woehr’s subject averages moved in different directions across the two years: ELA fell from 51% to 48%, while mathematics was nearly unchanged, moving from 55% to 55%, and remained well above the state average. SchoolDigger’s statewide percentile for Woehr declined from the 60th percentile in 2023–2024 to the 55th in 2025–2026, a ranking trend that does not capture each subject’s results. As context, in 2024–2025 Woehr enrolled 490 students and had a 10.4 student-teacher ratio, compared with 177 students and a 25.2 ratio at Primary. Free/reduced lunch eligible students were 25% at Woehr and 20% at Primary that school year; these figures describe different school contexts, not the reasons for their results.
