Summary:
The Farmingdale Public School District in New Jersey consists of a single public elementary school, Farmingdale Elementary, serving grades PK-8 with a total enrollment of 163 students.
Farmingdale Elementary's academic performance is mixed, with the school outperforming state averages in some English Language Arts assessments but struggling in Mathematics and Science, particularly at the upper grade levels. The school's proficiency rates range from 47.4% to 71.4% in ELA, 20% to 55.5% in Mathematics, and as low as 5.3% in 5th grade Science, often falling short of district averages. The school's high chronic absenteeism rate of 21% is also a concern.
Despite the school's relatively high per-student spending of $15,141 and low student-to-teacher ratio of 6.9, the academic performance data suggests that these resources may not be translating into consistent, high-quality educational outcomes for all students. The school's predominantly white student population may also indicate the need to explore strategies to promote diversity and inclusivity.
