Hanover Township School District

The Hanover Township School District in New Jersey is home to 4 schools, including 3 elementary schools (Bee Meadow School, Mountview Road School, and Salem Drive School) and 1 middle school (Memorial Junior School). The district generally outperforms state averages in both English Language Arts and Mathematics, with some standout performances at the individual school level.

Memorial Junior School stands out as a top-performing middle school, consistently ranked among the best in New Jersey and boasting impressive test scores, a low chronic absenteeism rate, and a high student-teacher ratio. Among the elementary schools, Salem Drive School and Mountview Road School are the highest-ranked, with strong performance in mathematics and English Language Arts, respectively.

While the district as a whole performs well, there is some variation in metrics and performance between the individual schools. The district may benefit from sharing best practices and resources to help improve the weaker-performing schools, particularly in addressing the high chronic absenteeism rates across all schools. Additionally, the differences in spending per student and student-teacher ratios suggest the district could potentially optimize its resource allocation to better support student learning.
