Summary:
The High Bridge Borough School District in New Jersey is home to a single middle school, High Bridge Middle School, serving grades 5-8. With 144 students enrolled, the school's performance has fluctuated in recent years, ranking as high as 118th out of 745 New Jersey middle schools in 2021-2022 but dropping to 226th out of 748 in 2022-2023.
While High Bridge Middle School excels in Algebra I with 100% proficiency rates, its overall academic performance in English Language Arts and Mathematics is below the state averages. The school's chronic absenteeism rate was 16.6% in 2022-2023, and its spending per student was $17,719 in the 2018-2019 school year. However, the school benefits from a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 13.3, which could contribute to more individualized attention for students.
Overall, the data suggests that High Bridge Middle School has both strengths and areas for improvement. Its fluctuating statewide ranking and uneven academic performance across subject areas indicate the need for further analysis and targeted interventions to ensure all students are receiving a high-quality education. The school's exceptional Algebra I results and low student-teacher ratio are positive factors, but the district may need to focus on boosting proficiency rates in core subjects and addressing chronic absenteeism to improve the school's overall performance.
