Belleville Public School District


Summary:

The Belleville Public School District in New Jersey consists of 10 schools, including 8 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school, serving a diverse student population. The district's academic performance varies significantly, with some standout schools like Belleville PS10 and Belleville PS9 demonstrating strong academic results, while others struggle to meet state averages.

The district's student population is predominantly Hispanic, with significant representation of other racial and ethnic groups. Economic disadvantage is a significant challenge, as evidenced by the high rates of free and reduced-price lunch eligibility across the schools. Chronic absenteeism is also a concern, with several schools reporting rates above 20%. However, the standout schools in the district, such as Belleville PS10 and Belleville PS9, demonstrate that high academic performance is possible within the Belleville Public School District.

The data analysis suggests that addressing the challenges of chronic absenteeism and economic disadvantage, while leveraging the successful practices of the high-performing schools, could be key to driving overall improvement in the district. By conducting in-depth, school-specific analyses, the district can identify areas of strength and weakness, and work to replicate the success of the standout schools across the entire system.
