Summary:
The South Harrison Township School District in New Jersey consists of a single school, South Harrison Elementary School, which serves grades PK-6 with a total enrollment of 333 students.
South Harrison Elementary School appears to be performing well academically, particularly in Mathematics, with proficiency rates that are generally higher than the state averages. The school's Mathematics proficiency rates ranged from 34.2% to 58.6% in the 2023-2024 school year, compared to the state averages of 36.2% to 47.6%. In English Language Arts, the school's proficiency rates were also above the state averages, though not as significantly as in Mathematics. However, the school's chronic absenteeism rate of 16.6% is higher than the state's target of 10% or less, indicating a potential area for improvement.
The school's relatively low free and reduced-price lunch rate of 14.41% suggests a relatively affluent student population, and its student-teacher ratio of 13.3 is lower than the state average, which may contribute to the school's academic performance. The South Harrison Township School District as a whole is ranked 345 out of 613 districts in New Jersey and is rated 2 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger, suggesting there may be room for improvement in the district's overall performance compared to other districts in the state.
