Summary:
The Eastampton Township School District has only one elementary school, Eastampton Township Community School, which serves grades PK-8 and has an enrollment of 573 students. The school's student population is diverse, with 47.12% White, 24.43% African American, 19.2% Hispanic, and smaller percentages of Asian, Native American, Pacific Islander, and multiracial students.
Academically, Eastampton Township Community School faces some challenges, as its proficiency rates on the NJSLA tests are generally lower than the state averages across all grade levels and subject areas. In English Language Arts, the school's proficiency rates range from 25.4% to 46.4%, compared to the state averages of 51.3% to 55.7%. In Mathematics, the school's proficiency rates range from 14.3% to 45.9%, compared to the state averages of 17.8% to 45.9%. The school's Science proficiency rates are also below the state averages.
Despite the school's higher-than-average per-student spending of $12,289 and a favorable student-teacher ratio of 11.4 to 1, the academic performance concerns suggest that the district may need to closely examine the school's instructional practices, resource allocation, and strategies for addressing student attendance and support needs. The school's chronic absenteeism rate of 14.6% is also a concern that the district should address to improve student learning and outcomes.
