Summary:
The city of Bradley Beach, New Jersey is home to a single public school, Bradley Beach Elementary School, which serves students from kindergarten through 8th grade. The school's performance has been mixed, with fluctuations in its statewide ranking and varying proficiency rates on standardized tests across different grade levels and subject areas.
While the school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio and higher-than-average per-student spending, its academic outcomes have been inconsistent. The school's proficiency rates in science are particularly concerning, with only 4.3% of 5th graders and 10.5% of 8th graders scoring proficient or better in the 2023-2024 school year. Additionally, the school serves a population with a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating significant economic challenges faced by the community.
Overall, the data suggests that Bradley Beach School District may need to implement targeted interventions and curriculum improvements, particularly in the area of science, to address the inconsistent academic performance and ensure equitable educational opportunities for all students.
