Mannington Township Elementary School

Summary:

Mannington Township Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades PK-8 in Salem, New Jersey, with 171 students and part of the Mannington Township School District, which is ranked 154 out of 613 districts in the state and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Mannington Township Elementary School consistently performs above the state average in both English Language Arts (ELA) and Mathematics proficiency across all grade levels. For example, in 2023-2024, the school's 5th grade ELA proficiency rate was 80%, compared to the state average of 52.3%, and its 3rd grade Mathematics proficiency rate was 68.8%, significantly higher than the state's 47.6%. When compared to the surrounding schools, such as Elsinboro Township School (90.9%) and Alloway Township School (56%), Mannington Township Elementary School generally outperforms its peers in academic proficiency, particularly in ELA and Mathematics.

The school has maintained a consistent 4-star rating from SchoolDigger over the past several years, indicating a stable and high-performing educational environment. However, the school's fluctuating chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 7.1% to 18.1%, and the relatively low percentage of free/reduced-price lunch recipients (18.71% in 2022-2023) may suggest potential equity concerns that warrant further investigation. Additionally, the school's 8th grade ELA and Science proficiency rates are areas for improvement, as they lag behind the state averages.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
