Elementary Schools in Hamilton Township Public School District

Summary:

The Hamilton Township Public School District in New Jersey is home to 17 elementary schools serving students from kindergarten through 5th grade. This analysis provides an overview of the key insights and standout schools within the district, offering valuable information for parents and community members.

Among the elementary schools, a few stand out as potential high-performers. Robinson Elementary School ranks the highest in the state, earning a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger and demonstrating the strongest academic proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics. Langtree Elementary School and Mercerville Elementary School also rank highly and have 3-star ratings, with proficiency rates exceeding the district and state averages.

However, the data also reveals significant disparities in academic performance and socioeconomic factors across the schools. Several schools, such as Lalor Elementary School and Greenwood Elementary School, struggle with lower proficiency rates, higher chronic absenteeism, and larger percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. These findings suggest potential inequities in educational resources and opportunities within the Hamilton Township Public School District.
