Summary:
The Boonton Town Public School District consists of 3 schools: School Street School (elementary), John Hill School (middle), and Boonton High School. Overall, the district performs well, with John Hill School and Boonton High School standing out as top-performing schools in the state.
John Hill School is the district's top performer, ranking 119 out of 743 New Jersey middle schools and earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school consistently excels in English Language Arts and Math assessments, with over 75% of students proficient or better in these subjects. Boonton High School also impresses with a 91.1% four-year graduation rate and a low 1.2% dropout rate, significantly outperforming the state average.
While the district generally performs above the state average, there are opportunities for improvement. Boonton High School could focus on enhancing its math instruction, as its NJSLA Algebra I and Geometry scores lag behind the state average. Additionally, the consistent 16.6% chronic absenteeism rate across all three schools is an area that warrants further investigation and targeted intervention strategies to improve student attendance and outcomes.
