Summary:
The Stow Creek Township School District in New Jersey is home to a single elementary school, Stow Creek Township School, which serves students from pre-kindergarten through 8th grade. While the school has some strengths, such as higher-than-average proficiency rates in English Language Arts, it also faces challenges in Mathematics and Science performance.
Stow Creek Township School has a relatively small enrollment of 122 students, with a demographic makeup that is predominantly White (90.16%) and a low percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch (22.95%). The school's academic performance is mixed, with proficiency rates in English Language Arts ranging from 50.1% in 3rd grade to 81.8% in 6th grade, but lower-than-average proficiency rates in Mathematics (37.6% in 3rd grade to 50% in 7th grade) and Science (28.6% in 5th grade and 16.7% in 8th grade). The school's student-teacher ratio of 9.6 is lower than the state average, and its per-student spending of $13,343 is higher than the state average, suggesting that it has access to more resources.
Over the past three school years, Stow Creek Township School's statewide ranking has fluctuated, ranging from 329 out of 1,345 elementary schools in 2021-2022 to 548 out of 1,342 in 2022-2023. The school's chronic absenteeism rate of 12.1% for the 2021-2022 school year is also higher than the state average, which is an area of concern that the school and district may need to address.
