The district's high school, North Arlington High School, also stands out with a 91.1% four-year graduation rate, which is above the state average.
However, the district faces some challenges, such as a high chronic absenteeism rate of 16.6% across all schools, and variation in performance at the middle school level, with Veterans Middle School having lower proficiency rates in Mathematics compared to the elementary schools. Additionally, the district may want to examine its funding allocation to ensure more equitable resources across schools, as there is significant variation in per-student spending.
