Summary:
Zip code 08872 has one school, Woodrow Wilson Elementary School, serving pre-K through grade 3 in the Sayreville School District. The available test results cover grade 3 English language arts (ELA) and Mathematics. With only one school, there is no meaningful school-to-school comparison; the most important finding is that the latest results are mixed: ELA proficiency was slightly above the state rate, while Mathematics was notably below it.
Within the school’s 2025–2026 results, ELA was its stronger subject: 49% of grade 3 students were proficient, about 1 percentage point above the state’s 48%, but 3 points below the district’s 52%. Mathematics was the clearest weakness, at 44% proficient compared with 49% statewide and 53% in the district—gaps of 6 and 9 points. ELA proficiency was 6 points higher than Mathematics, so the school’s results look quite different depending on the subject.
Mathematics changed most from the prior year, falling 9 points from 53% in 2024–2025, while the state rate fell about 1 point; the school shifted from 3 points above the state to 6 points below. ELA stayed about 49%, while the state rose from 45% to 48%, narrowing the school’s lead from 4 points to 1. SchoolDigger ranked the school 719th of 1,331, in the 46th percentile with two stars, in 2025–2026; its reported percentiles were 47th in 2023–2024 and 56th in 2024–2025. Context includes 401 students, a 13.3 student–teacher ratio, and 47% free/reduced lunch eligible in 2024–2025. Chronic absenteeism that year was 19%, versus 14% in both the district and state.
