Elementary Schools in Runnemede Public School District


Summary:

The Runnemede Public School District in New Jersey is home to two elementary schools serving students from pre-kindergarten through 6th grade. Based on the available data, Grade Downing Elementary School appears to be the standout performer in the district, outpacing its counterpart, Aline Bingham Elementary School, in several key metrics.

Grade Downing Elementary consistently ranks in the top 50% of New Jersey elementary schools, while Aline Bingham has ranked in the bottom 25%. Grade Downing also boasts higher proficiency rates in both English Language Arts and Mathematics, as well as a lower chronic absenteeism rate. Interestingly, Grade Downing achieves these better academic outcomes while spending less per student than Aline Bingham. The district as a whole, however, seems to be underperforming, with both schools ranking below the state average.

The data also reveals some notable differences between the two schools. Aline Bingham has a higher percentage of white students, while Grade Downing has a more diverse student body. Additionally, Aline Bingham has a significantly lower student-teacher ratio, which does not appear to be translating into better academic performance. The high chronic absenteeism rates and similar free/reduced lunch rates at both schools suggest that attendance and economic disadvantage are significant challenges facing the Runnemede Public School District.
