Deal Elementary School

Summary:

Deal Elementary School is a public K-8 school in Deal, New Jersey, with a relatively small student population of 159 as of the 2022-2023 school year. The school serves a predominantly White student body, with smaller percentages of African American, Hispanic, and Asian students.

Academically, Deal Elementary School has had mixed performance, ranking in the bottom half of New Jersey elementary schools over the past decade. While some grade levels excel, such as 8th-graders outperforming the state average in English Language Arts, other grades struggle, like 4th-graders falling behind in Mathematics. The school also faces higher-than-average chronic absenteeism rates, which may impact student learning. Interestingly, Deal Elementary has a lower percentage of economically disadvantaged students compared to nearby schools, suggesting potential equity concerns around access to educational opportunities.

When comparing Deal Elementary to its neighbors, the school generally outperforms lower-ranked schools in the Neptune Township and Asbury Park districts, but lags behind the higher-performing schools in the West Long Branch and Township of Ocean districts. This context highlights the importance of considering a school's broader educational environment when evaluating its performance.

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.
