Despite its relatively low student-teacher ratio, School 18 consistently ranks in the bottom 10% of New Jersey elementary schools, with significantly below-average performance on the NJSLA assessments. For example, in the 2022-2023 school year, only 12.1% of 3rd-grade students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to the state average of 42% and the district average of 13.8%. The school also faces challenges with chronic absenteeism, which has risen from 6.4% in 2016-2017 to 31.8% in 2021-2022, far exceeding state and district averages. Additionally, a large majority (80.58%) of students at School 18 are eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high concentration of students from low-income families.

When comparing School 18 to other schools in the Paterson Public School District, as well as some schools in neighboring districts, the performance gap is quite significant.

The school's struggles are particularly pronounced for specific student subgroups, such as African American, Hispanic, English Language Learner, and Special Education students, who rank in the bottom 10-20% of New Jersey elementary schools.

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.

Pre and Post Pandemic Data

Impact of COVID-19 on School 18

The coronavirus has had a profound impact on education in America. Learning shifted online overnight, attendance numbers dwindled, and enrollment decreased. SchoolDigger.com is making it easier for you to better assess how COVID-19 has impacted your school. Through the collection of pre-pandemic (2019) and current data, SchoolDigger.com is sharing test scores, enrollment numbers and school demographics from schools across the country – and we make it easy to see how impacted schools compare locally and statewide.
