Summary:
The Shamong Township School District in New Jersey consists of two schools: Indian Mills Elementary School and Indian Mills Memorial School. The district serves a relatively affluent community, as evidenced by the low rates of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch at both schools.
The standout school in the district is Indian Mills Memorial School, a middle school that has consistently ranked in the top 25% of New Jersey middle schools over the past three years. It maintains a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating strong overall performance. The school's students excel in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Algebra I, with proficiency rates exceeding state and district averages.
While Indian Mills Elementary School is a solid performer, with proficiency rates above state averages, it has a lower statewide ranking, placing it in the middle 50% of New Jersey elementary schools. The district may want to investigate the slightly higher chronic absenteeism rate at both schools and explore ways to improve student attendance and engagement.
