Southern Regional School District

The Southern Regional School District in New Jersey operates two schools: Southern Regional High School and Southern Regional Middle School. Both schools are relatively strong performers, with 3-star ratings from SchoolDigger and academic achievement generally meeting or exceeding state averages.

Southern Regional High School stands out with a 92.3% four-year graduation rate, notably higher than the state average. Its students perform slightly below the state average in English Language Arts but above average in Algebra I and Science. In contrast, Southern Regional Middle School students outperform the state in English Language Arts and Algebra I, but lag behind in Mathematics and Science. The middle school's 85.3% proficiency in Algebra I is particularly impressive, suggesting a strong math curriculum.

However, both schools face challenges with chronic absenteeism, with the high school at 24.5% and the middle school at 14.9%. Additionally, while the schools serve a predominantly white and relatively affluent student population, the district may want to focus on improving Mathematics proficiency, especially at the middle school level. Overall, the Southern Regional School District appears to provide a quality education, but there are opportunities for improvement in attendance and certain academic areas.
