West Cape May School District


Summary:

The West Cape May School District is a small district in New Jersey, consisting of only one school, West Cape May Elementary School, which serves grades PK-6. Despite its small size, the school has consistently performed well, ranking in the 37th percentile statewide and boasting strong academic achievement, particularly in English Language Arts.

West Cape May Elementary School stands out for its academic excellence, with 63.6% of 3rd graders, 71.5% of 4th graders, and 50% of 6th graders scoring proficient or better in ELA. The school's mathematics performance is more mixed, with 3rd and 6th graders scoring above the state average, but 4th graders scoring slightly below. The school's racial diversity, with a significant Hispanic population and a small percentage of African American students, is also noteworthy, as many schools in the state struggle to achieve a balanced racial representation.

The school's high per-student spending of $14,370 and low student-to-teacher ratio of 8.1 suggest that the district is investing significant resources into the education of its students. While the school's overall performance is strong, the lower mathematics proficiency rates in certain grades indicate an area for potential improvement. By analyzing the factors contributing to these lower math scores and implementing targeted interventions, the school can continue to enhance the educational experience for its students.
