Summary:
The Westville Boro Public School District has only one elementary school, Parkview Elementary School, serving grades PK-6. The school faces significant challenges, with academic performance well below state averages across all grade levels in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science. Parkview Elementary's statewide ranking has also declined in recent years, suggesting a relative decline in performance compared to other elementary schools in New Jersey.
Parkview Elementary School serves a student population that is predominantly White (51.68%), with significant Hispanic (23.24%) and African American (15.9%) representation. However, the school faces socioeconomic challenges, with 63.61% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. This high rate of economically disadvantaged students may contribute to the academic performance issues observed at the school.
The Westville Boro Public School District as a whole is also struggling, ranked 557 out of 615 districts in New Jersey and rated 0 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger. This suggests that the challenges facing Parkview Elementary School are not isolated but rather indicative of systemic issues within the district. Addressing these concerns should be a priority for the district to ensure that all students have access to a high-quality education.
