Summary:
The Montgomery Township School District in New Jersey is home to two high-performing elementary schools: Orchard Hill Elementary School and Village Elementary School. Both schools have consistently maintained strong academic records, with students outperforming state averages in English Language Arts and Mathematics.
Orchard Hill Elementary School has a long history of excellence, ranking 207 out of 1,204 New Jersey elementary schools in the 2002-2003 school year and maintaining a 4-star rating. Similarly, Village Elementary School has also performed exceptionally well, ranking 214 out of 1,338 New Jersey elementary schools in the 2023-2024 school year and maintaining a 4-star rating. The schools' performance is on par with the overall Montgomery Township School District, which is ranked 50 out of 613 school districts in New Jersey and is rated 5 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger.
While both schools have relatively low rates of free and reduced lunch recipients, indicating a relatively affluent student population, they face some challenges, such as higher-than-average chronic absenteeism rates. The district may benefit from further analysis and targeted interventions to address these areas of concern and ensure equitable access and support for all students, regardless of their background.
