Summary:
The Roselle Public School District in New Jersey has only one high school, Abraham Clark High School, which serves students in grades 9-12. The school's diverse student population, with a majority of African American and Hispanic students, is significantly different from the state-wide averages. However, the school's academic performance, as measured by proficiency rates on state assessments, is consistently and significantly lower than the state averages across all subject areas and grade levels.
Abraham Clark High School also faces challenges with graduation and attendance, with a lower-than-average graduation rate and higher-than-average dropout rate. The school's chronic absenteeism rate is significantly higher than the state average, suggesting issues with student engagement. Despite the school's higher-than-average per-student spending, these resources do not appear to be translating into improved academic outcomes for the students, raising questions about the effectiveness of the school's resource allocation and utilization.
The data analysis reveals that Abraham Clark High School is a low-performing school within the Roselle Public School District, with significant academic, attendance, and graduation challenges compared to state averages. These findings highlight the need for a deeper examination of the underlying factors contributing to the school's struggles and the implementation of targeted interventions and support to address the identified issues.
