The school is part of the Berkeley Township School District, which is ranked 416 out of 613 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger. Bayville Elementary School has consistently been ranked in the bottom half of New Jersey elementary schools over the past 10 years, receiving a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger for most of that time period.

Bayville Elementary School faces several key challenges, including low test scores, high chronic absenteeism, and socioeconomic disparities in student performance. The school's test scores are consistently below the state and district averages in both English Language Arts and Mathematics, with only 37.7% of 3rd graders and 55.4% of 4th graders proficient or better in ELA, compared to the state averages of 43.6% and 50.8% respectively. In Mathematics, the proficiency rates were 37.3% for 3rd grade and 42.2% for 4th grade, compared to the state averages of 47.6% and 45%. Additionally, Bayville Elementary School has had high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 16.6% to 20.9% over the past few years, which is significantly higher than the state average.

When compared to other elementary schools in the same district, such as Clara B. Worth Elementary and H & M Potter School, Bayville Elementary School generally performs worse on test scores and has higher chronic absenteeism rates. However, the school spends a similar amount per student ($12,564 in 2018-2019) and has a comparable student-teacher ratio. Addressing the root causes of Bayville Elementary School's challenges, such as targeted interventions and a focus on equity, could help the school improve its academic outcomes and provide a better educational experience for its students.

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.
