Summary:
The Runnemede Public School District in New Jersey has only one middle school, Mary E. Volz Elementary School, which serves students in grades 5-8. The school has a diverse student population, with a significant percentage of economically disadvantaged students receiving free or reduced-price lunch.
Academically, Mary E. Volz Elementary School faces some challenges. While the school's performance in English Language Arts is mixed, with 7th-grade students performing better than the state average, the school's proficiency rates in Mathematics and Science are significantly lower than the state averages. The school's overall ranking among New Jersey middle schools has consistently been in the bottom half, and it has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating below-average performance compared to other schools in the state.
Despite higher per-student spending and a relatively low student-teacher ratio, the school's academic struggles may be attributed to factors such as chronic absenteeism and the socioeconomic disadvantages of the student population. The school's leadership and the Runnemede Public School District may need to address these challenges to improve student outcomes and provide a more well-rounded educational experience for the students at Mary E. Volz Elementary School.
