Woodbridge Township School District

Summary:

The Woodbridge Township School District in New Jersey operates 24 schools, including 16 elementary schools, 5 middle schools, and 3 high schools. The district serves a diverse community and exhibits a wide range of academic performance among its schools.

Some standout schools in the district include Oak Tree Road Elementary School, which consistently ranks among the top elementary schools in New Jersey, and Claremont Avenue Elementary School, another high-performing elementary school. At the middle school level, Iselin Middle School stands out with impressive proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Algebra I.

However, the data also reveals significant variation in academic performance across the district. While some schools excel, others struggle to meet proficiency standards, particularly in English Language Arts and Mathematics. The district's overall test scores lag behind state averages, and chronic absenteeism is a widespread challenge. Additionally, there appears to be a correlation between a school's socioeconomic status and its academic achievement, suggesting the need for targeted interventions and equitable resource distribution to support all students in the Woodbridge Township School District.
