Summary:
The 08093 zip code area is home to 3 schools - 2 elementary schools and 1 high school. The data reveals stark differences in school performance, with West Deptford High School performing relatively well compared to the state average, while the two elementary schools, Shady Lane Elementary School and Parkview Elementary School, struggle, particularly Parkview Elementary.
The high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch at the elementary schools suggest that these schools serve higher-need student populations, which may contribute to their lower academic performance. All three schools face challenges in mathematics proficiency, with low percentages of students scoring proficient or better in Algebra I and other math subjects. Additionally, the high chronic absenteeism rates across all three schools are concerning and may be a contributing factor to the academic challenges faced by these schools.
The differences in per-student spending between the high school and the elementary schools may indicate funding disparities that could impact the resources and support available to students. Overall, the data highlights the need for targeted interventions and support to address the academic and socioeconomic challenges faced by the schools in the 08093 zip code area, particularly the lower-performing elementary schools.
