Summary:
The Piscataway Township School District in New Jersey is home to three middle schools serving grades 6-8: Theodore Schor Middle School, Quibbletown Middle School, and Conackamack Middle School. Among these, Conackamack Middle School stands out as the top-performing school, earning a 4-star rating and ranking 219th out of 743 New Jersey middle schools.
Conackamack Middle School excels academically, with the highest proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Mathematics, Algebra I, Geometry, and 8th grade science across all grade levels, significantly outperforming the district and state averages. The school also has the lowest percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch at 28.3% and the lowest student-teacher ratio at 11.6, suggesting a more advantageous learning environment for its students.
While the three middle schools in the Piscataway Township School District show a range of performance, the consistent chronic absenteeism rates across all schools indicate a potential area for improvement district-wide. Additionally, the data suggests that higher spending per student does not necessarily translate to higher academic performance, as Conackamack Middle School had the highest spending but was the top-performing school in the district.
