Winslow Township School District

The Winslow Township School District in New Jersey operates 8 schools, including 4 elementary schools, 3 middle schools, and 1 high school. The district serves a population with significant economic challenges, as evidenced by the high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch across all schools. While the district and its schools generally perform well below state averages on standardized tests, there are some standout performers worth noting.

Winslow Township Elementary School Four stands out as the highest-ranked elementary school in the district, with a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger and relatively strong test scores, including 48.2% of 3rd graders proficient or better in ELA and 33.6% in math. Winslow Township Elementary School Six also performs well, with the highest ELA proficiency rates among the elementary schools. At the middle school level, Winslow Township Middle School stands out with an impressive 65.5% of students proficient or better in Algebra I, significantly higher than the district and state averages.

However, the district as a whole faces significant challenges, including consistently low performance on standardized tests, high chronic absenteeism rates across all schools, and a population with high levels of economic disadvantage. These factors likely contribute to the district's overall academic struggles. While the analysis identifies some bright spots, such as the stronger performance of certain elementary schools and the middle school's success in Algebra I, the data suggests that the Winslow Township School District has room for improvement in addressing these systemic challenges and supporting student learning and achievement.
