Summary:
The city of Belvidere, New Jersey is home to 3 schools, including 2 elementary schools (White Township Consolidated School and Belvidere Elementary School) and 1 high school (Belvidere High School). The data reveals a stark contrast in the performance of these schools, with White Township Consolidated School standing out as a relatively high-performing institution, while the other two schools struggle academically.
White Township Consolidated School has a higher overall performance, with a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger and test scores that generally exceed the district and state averages, particularly in English Language Arts. In contrast, Belvidere High School and Belvidere Elementary School struggle academically, with test scores well below the state averages.
The data also raises concerns about chronic absenteeism, with Belvidere Elementary School standing out with a high chronic absenteeism rate of 35.8%, significantly higher than the other schools and the state average. Additionally, the relatively low percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch across the schools may indicate potential equity challenges within the Belvidere School District and the White Township Consolidated School District.
