Middletown Village Elementary School's strong academic performance, low chronic absenteeism rates, and favorable student-teacher ratio are key factors contributing to its excellent reputation. The school consistently outperforms the state and district averages on the NJSLA (New Jersey Student Learning Assessments) in English Language Arts and Mathematics, with 69.4% of 4th graders and 66.7% of 5th graders scoring proficient or better in ELA, compared to 50.8% and 52.3% at the state level, respectively.

This consistent high performance over the years suggests that Middletown Village Elementary School has a robust educational program and effective teaching practices that have been sustained over time. While the school performs well overall, there is room for improvement in its 5th-grade science proficiency, which is lower than its ELA and Mathematics results.

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.
