Midland Park School District

The Midland Park School District in New Jersey is home to three schools: two elementary schools (Highland Elementary School and Godwin Elementary School) and one junior/senior high school (Midland Park Junior/Senior High School). The district has a predominantly white student population, with Hispanic students making up the second-largest racial group.

Midland Park Junior/Senior High School stands out as a top-performing school, consistently ranking among the best high schools in New Jersey and earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school boasts an impressive 97.3% four-year graduation rate and 0.0% dropout rate, with students demonstrating strong academic performance in both English Language Arts and Mathematics. Highland Elementary School also maintains a 4-star rating, with students excelling in English Language Arts and Mathematics proficiency.

While the district overall demonstrates academic excellence, there are some areas for improvement. Godwin Elementary School has the highest chronic absenteeism rate in the district at 10.3%, which is a concern. Additionally, the variation in spending per student across the district may warrant further investigation to ensure equitable resource allocation and support for all students.
