Summary:
The 08640 zip code is home to a single elementary school, Fort Dix Elementary School, which serves students in grades K-5 and is part of the Pemberton Township School District. While the school has seen fluctuations in its statewide ranking, its academic performance is mixed compared to district and state averages, with strengths in some subject areas and grade levels but underperformance in others.
Fort Dix Elementary School's performance on standardized tests has been variable, with the school outperforming the district in English Language Arts (ELA) for grades 3-5 but underperforming the state average. In Mathematics, the school outperformed the district in grades 3 and 5 but fell short of the state average across all grades. In Science, the school's 5th-grade proficiency rate was higher than the district's but lower than the state's. The school also serves a relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, at 37.81% in the 2023-2024 school year.
Despite the school's mixed academic performance, it maintains a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 11.8, which could indicate a focus on providing more individualized attention and support to students. However, without additional context, it's difficult to determine if this ratio is optimal for the school's needs. Overall, the data suggests that while Fort Dix Elementary School has areas of strength, there may be room for improvement in its academic programs and instructional practices to better serve its student population.
