Additionally, several schools in the district, particularly the elementary schools, have relatively high rates of chronic absenteeism, which can impact student learning and achievement.

The South Brunswick School District's strengths include the exceptional performance of Monmouth Junction Elementary School and the overall strong academic results of South Brunswick High School. However, the district also faces challenges in addressing chronic absenteeism and improving mathematics performance in certain areas. By focusing on these areas while maintaining the district's strengths, the South Brunswick School District can continue to provide a high-quality education for its diverse student population.
