Martin Luther King Junior School No. 6

Summary:

Martin Luther King Junior School No. 6 is an elementary school in Passaic, New Jersey, serving grades PK-8 with 682 students, the majority of whom are Hispanic. However, the school faces significant challenges, with high chronic absenteeism, low academic performance, and a ranking in the bottom 10% of New Jersey elementary schools.

The school's chronic absenteeism rate has risen sharply, from 11% in 2017-2018 to 40.2% in 2021-2022, notably higher than nearby schools, which range from 30.5% to 35%. Academically, the school's proficiency rates on state assessments are far below state and district averages, with only 1.4% of 3rd-grade students proficient in English Language Arts, compared to 16.5% in the Passaic City School District and 42% statewide. The school's performance is particularly concerning for English Language Learners, with only 1% proficient in ELA and 0% in Math.

While the nearby schools, such as William B. Cruise Memorial School No. 11, share similar demographics but outperform Martin Luther King Junior School No. 6 academically. The high chronic absenteeism appears to be closely linked to the school's poor performance, and the significant achievement gaps between student subgroups raise concerns about equity. Addressing these challenges will require a comprehensive, data-driven approach to improve instructional quality, increase student engagement, and provide targeted support for the school's most vulnerable populations.

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.
