Summary:
The Great Meadows Regional School District in New Jersey has only one elementary school, Central Elementary School. This school has seen fluctuating performance in recent years, with its statewide ranking ranging from 409 out of 1,338 New Jersey elementary schools in 2023-2024 to 570 out of 1,342 in 2022-2023.
Central Elementary School's performance on the NJSLA (New Jersey Student Learning Assessment) tests has been mixed, with stronger results in Mathematics than in English Language Arts. In 2023-2024, the school's 3rd-grade proficiency rates were 56% in English Language Arts and 59.4% in Mathematics, both higher than the state averages. However, in 2022-2023, the school's 3rd-grade proficiency rates were 38.4% in English Language Arts and 60% in Mathematics, with the ELA rate being lower than the state average.
The school has a relatively low percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch at 10.81% in 2022-2023, and a student-teacher ratio of 12.7, which is lower than the state average. These factors suggest the school may serve a relatively advantaged student population and have smaller class sizes, which could contribute to its academic performance. However, more information would be needed to fully understand the school's context and the factors influencing its outcomes.
