Avon Elementary School

Summary:

Avon Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades PK-4 in Haddonfield, New Jersey, with a student population of 310. The school is part of the Haddonfield School District, which is ranked 366 out of 615 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Academically, Avon Elementary School is underperforming compared to both state averages and many of the nearby schools. Its NJSLA test scores in English Language Arts and Mathematics are below the state averages, with only 30.9% of 3rd graders and 51% of 4th graders proficient or better in ELA, and 32.8% of 3rd graders and 51% of 4th graders proficient or better in Math. The school's statewide ranking has consistently placed it in the bottom half of New Jersey elementary schools, ranging from 630th out of 1,360 schools in 2018-2019 to 786th out of 1,342 schools in 2022-2023. Additionally, Avon Elementary's performance on key student subgroups, such as White students and students with low socioeconomic status, is also below average.

Interestingly, Avon Elementary's academic performance and statewide ranking are significantly lower than many of the nearby schools, such as J. Fithian Tatem School and Central School in the Haddonfield School District, which are both ranked in the top 5% of New Jersey elementary schools and have much higher proficiency rates in ELA and Math. This performance gap may be attributed to factors such as socioeconomic status, chronic absenteeism, and overall school culture and resources, which should be further investigated to identify areas for improvement.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
