Lumberton Township Board of Education


Summary:

The Lumberton Township Board of Education district in New Jersey operates three schools: two elementary schools (Bobby's Run Elementary School and Ashbrook Elementary School) and one middle school (Lumberton Middle School). The district serves a diverse student population, with a mix of white, African American, Hispanic, and Asian students.

Among the standout schools, Lumberton Middle School excels in Algebra I, with 96.4% of 8th graders scoring proficient or better, significantly higher than the state average. The school also performs well in 8th grade English Language Arts, with 60.8% of students scoring proficient or better, compared to the state average of 55.3%. Bobby's Run Elementary School stands out for its higher proficiency rates in 4th and 5th grade English Language Arts compared to state averages, as well as a lower chronic absenteeism rate of 15.2%.

However, the district as a whole faces challenges, with most schools performing below state averages in English Language Arts and Mathematics proficiency. Chronic absenteeism rates are also relatively high, ranging from 15.2% to 22.5%, which may be impacting academic performance. Additionally, the district's high per-student spending and significant percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch suggest that resources may not be effectively allocated to address the needs of the student population. Addressing these issues through targeted interventions and resource allocation could help improve the overall quality of education in the Lumberton Township Board of Education district.
