Best Public Schools in Zip Code 07403

Summary:

The 07403 zip code in New Jersey is home to 3 schools: 2 elementary schools (Martha B. Day Elementary School and Samuel R. Donald Elementary School) and 1 middle school (Walter T. Bergen Middle School). These schools, part of the Bloomingdale School District, have shown a mix of strengths and areas for improvement.

Walter T. Bergen Middle School stands out as a high performer, consistently exceeding state averages on NJSLA/English Language Arts and NJSLA/Mathematics assessments, particularly in 5th, 7th, and 8th grades. The school also boasts an impressive 85.7% proficiency rate on NJSLA/Algebra I, far surpassing the state average. In contrast, Samuel R. Donald Elementary School demonstrates strong NJSLA/Mathematics performance in 3rd and 4th grades, while Martha B. Day Elementary School has the highest spending per student at $18,685.

However, all three schools face the challenge of higher-than-average chronic absenteeism rates, which may impact student engagement and academic outcomes. Additionally, there are opportunities for improvement in certain grade levels and subject areas, such as 8th-grade Mathematics and 8th-grade Science at Walter T. Bergen Middle School. The differences in free and reduced lunch rates across the schools also suggest variations in the socioeconomic backgrounds of the student populations, which may influence resource needs and educational strategies.
