Summary:
The city of Woodlynne, New Jersey has only one public school, Woodlynne Boro Public School, which serves grades PK-8 with a total enrollment of 383 students. The school is part of the Woodlynne School District, which is ranked 533 out of 613 districts in New Jersey and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Woodlynne Boro Public School has consistently ranked in the bottom third of New Jersey elementary schools over the past three years, indicating persistent challenges in providing a high-quality education. The school's test scores in both English Language Arts and Mathematics are significantly below the state averages across all grade levels, with proficiency rates ranging from 25.7% to 53.3% in ELA and 3.4% to 38.9% in Mathematics, compared to state averages of 43.6% to 53.9% and 19.4% to 47.6%, respectively. Additionally, the school has a high chronic absenteeism rate of 16.6%, which is higher than the state average.
Despite the school's low academic performance, it has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 10.1 to 1, which could be an asset in providing more individualized attention and support to students. However, the high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch (83.03%) suggests that the school serves a population with significant economic disadvantages, which may contribute to the academic challenges.
