Summary:
The 08830 zip code in New Jersey is home to a single public high school, John F. Kennedy Memorial High School, which serves grades 9-12 and is part of the Woodbridge Township School District. While the school maintains a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger, its statewide ranking has declined slightly in recent years, and its academic performance, particularly in math and science, lags behind the state average.
John F. Kennedy Memorial High School has an enrollment of 1,398 students and a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 12.3. The school's four-year graduation rate is 91.3%, and its dropout rate is 1.0%. However, the school has a higher-than-average chronic absenteeism rate of 14.9%. Economically, the school serves a significant population of students (44.13%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a higher proportion of economically disadvantaged students.
In terms of academic performance, the school's test scores in NJSLA/English Language Arts for 9th grade are better than the district average but still lag behind the state average. The school's performance in math and science is an area of concern, as its proficiency rates are lower than both the district and state averages. While the school maintains a 3-star rating, the data suggests there may be room for improvement in academic achievement, particularly for the school's economically disadvantaged student population.
