Elementary Schools in Middletown Township Public School District

Summary:

The Middletown Township Public School District in New Jersey is home to 11 high-performing elementary schools that serve students from pre-kindergarten through 5th grade. The district is known for its strong academic programs, with several schools consistently ranking among the top elementary schools in the state.

Among the standout schools in the district are Navesink Elementary School, which ranks 62nd out of 1,342 elementary schools in New Jersey and boasts the highest proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics across all grade levels. New Monmouth Elementary School and Middletown Village Elementary School also perform exceptionally well, ranking in the top 25% of New Jersey elementary schools. These high-performing schools demonstrate the district's commitment to providing a quality education for all students.

While the Middletown Township Public School District as a whole outperforms the state averages in English Language Arts and Mathematics proficiency, there are some areas of concern. The district faces challenges related to equity, with significant differences in free/reduced lunch rates and chronic absenteeism rates across the schools. Additionally, the substantial variations in per-student spending suggest that the district may need to address resource allocation to ensure that all students have access to the resources they need to succeed.
