Woodland Township School District

Woodland Township School District in New Jersey is home to a single public elementary school, Chatsworth Elementary School, which serves students from pre-kindergarten through 8th grade. While the school has a relatively small student population of 103, its academic performance is generally below the state averages across various grade levels and subject areas, particularly in English Language Arts and Mathematics.

Chatsworth Elementary School's student population is predominantly white, with very low representation of other racial and ethnic groups. The school's chronic absenteeism rate is higher than the state average, and its per-student spending is above the state average, suggesting that factors beyond just funding and resources may be contributing to the low academic performance. The school's performance is generally aligned with the Woodland Township School District as a whole, indicating that the challenges faced by Chatsworth Elementary are likely systemic within the district.

Despite the school's relatively low percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a relatively low level of economic disadvantage, Chatsworth Elementary's academic performance remains significantly below the state averages. This suggests a need for the school and district to closely examine their practices, identify the root causes of the low academic performance, and implement targeted interventions and support systems to improve student learning outcomes. Additionally, the school's lack of diversity may warrant further exploration to ensure that the educational experience is inclusive and responsive to the needs of all students.
