Summary:
The Wood-Ridge School District in New Jersey consists of three schools: Wood-Ridge Junior/Senior High School, Catherine E. Doyle Elementary School, and Wood-Ridge Intermediate School. The district serves students from elementary through high school grades.
The standout school in the district appears to be the Catherine E. Doyle Elementary School, which has consistently ranked among the top elementary schools in New Jersey. This school has exceptional academic performance, with significantly higher test scores in English Language Arts and Mathematics compared to the district and state averages. In contrast, the Wood-Ridge Junior/Senior High School has had mixed performance on state assessments, with some grades and subjects performing above the state average and others below.
While the district overall appears to be performing well, with high graduation rates and low dropout rates, there is a concern regarding the high chronic absenteeism rates across all three schools. Addressing the factors contributing to this issue could help improve overall student performance. Additionally, the district may need to focus on specific subject areas or grade levels at the Wood-Ridge Junior/Senior High School to ensure consistent academic success for its older students.
