Summary:
The Monroe Township Public School District in New Jersey consists of 6 schools, including 4 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school, serving students from pre-kindergarten through 12th grade.
Among the elementary schools, Radix Elementary stands out with the highest statewide ranking and the best proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics. Whitehall Elementary has the lowest student-teacher ratio and relatively strong academic performance, while Holly Glen Elementary has the highest spending per student, though this does not necessarily translate to the best academic outcomes.
Across the district, there is a significant disparity in academic performance, with Radix Elementary significantly outperforming the other schools. Chronic absenteeism is also a concern, particularly at the Williamstown High School and Williamstown Middle School, which may be contributing to the lower academic performance observed in some schools. Additionally, the varying racial compositions and free/reduced lunch rates across the schools suggest potential equity issues that could be further explored.
