The Berlin Borough School District in New Jersey consists of a single elementary school, Berlin Community School, which serves grades PK-8 with a total enrollment of 770 students. While the school's overall performance is solid, with strengths in Algebra I and English Language Arts, there are some areas for improvement, particularly in mathematics proficiency across certain grade levels.

Berlin Community School's statewide ranking for elementary schools has remained relatively stable over the past three years, ranking between 644-653 out of 1,338-1,345 New Jersey elementary schools. The school's overall rating by SchoolDigger is 3 out of 5 stars, which is the same as the district's rating. In English Language Arts, the school's proficiency rates are generally higher than the state average, with 6th and 8th-grade students performing particularly well. However, in Mathematics, the school's proficiency rates are mixed, with some grade levels performing below the state average.

One standout area for Berlin Community School is its exceptional performance in Algebra I, with over 96% of students scoring proficient or better, significantly outperforming the state average. This suggests the school may have a strong focus on mathematics and advanced math courses. On the other hand, the school's chronic absenteeism rate of 16.6% is relatively high, which could be an area of concern and warrant further investigation. Overall, Berlin Community School appears to be a solid performing school, with room for improvement in certain academic areas and addressing attendance issues.
