Ogdensburg Borough School consistently performs above the state average in English Language Arts (ELA) and Mathematics across most grade levels. For example, in 2023-2024, the school's 7th grade ELA proficiency rate was 81%, compared to the state average of 53.9%. However, the school's performance in Science is more mixed, with 5th grade and 8th grade Science proficiency rates below the state average. Interestingly, the school's low socioeconomic status (SES) students perform exceptionally well, ranking in the top 25% of New Jersey elementary schools in 2023-2024.

Compared to nearby schools, Ogdensburg Borough School generally outperforms them in academic performance, particularly in ELA and Mathematics. For instance, in 2023-2024, Ogdensburg's 7th grade ELA proficiency rate of 81% was significantly higher than the 55.6% rate at the nearby Hamburg School. However, some nearby schools, such as Florence M. Burd and Hardyston Township Elementary, also demonstrate strong academic performance, with proficiency rates above the state average in several grade levels. The school's chronic absenteeism rate remains above the state average, which is an area of concern that the district should address.

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.
