Summary:
The Totowa Public School District has one elementary school, Memorial School, which serves students from pre-kindergarten through 6th grade. Located in Totowa, New Jersey, Memorial School has a diverse student population with a majority of White students, followed by Hispanic and Asian students.
Memorial School's academic performance is on par with the district average, with 44.7% of 3rd-grade students proficient or better in English Language Arts, matching the district average but exceeding the state average. In Mathematics, 40% of 3rd-grade students were proficient or better, again matching the district average but falling short of the state average. The school's chronic absenteeism rate of 12% is a metric to monitor, as high rates can impact student learning and achievement.
Memorial School has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 14.5 and a per-student spending of $14,009, suggesting adequate resources. However, the school's ranking of 710 out of 1,342 New Jersey elementary schools and a 2-out-of-5-star rating from SchoolDigger indicate room for improvement. The school's consistent performance over the past two years provides an opportunity to identify areas for targeted interventions and support to enhance student outcomes.
