While the school has some strengths, such as 7th grade English Language Arts proficiency exceeding the state average, it has consistently ranked in the bottom half of New Jersey elementary schools over the past 10 years. Student performance on state assessments is mixed, with some grades performing above the state average in ELA but below average in Mathematics. Science proficiency is particularly low, with only 4.3% of 5th graders and 10.5% of 8th graders scoring proficient or better, compared to state averages of 27.5% and 18.8%, respectively. The school also faces challenges with a relatively high chronic absenteeism rate, ranging from 8.3% to 18.1% over the past few years.

Compared to nearby schools, Bradley Beach Elementary School generally outperforms schools in the Asbury Park and Neptune Township school districts, but lags behind higher-performing schools in the Avon and Wall Township districts, which are located within a few miles of Bradley Beach. With targeted interventions and a focus on addressing the specific areas of need, the school has the potential to improve its overall performance 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.
