Randolph High School is a strong-performing school, consistently ranking in the top 150 high schools in New Jersey. The school's academic performance on NJSLA tests is generally above the state average, particularly in English Language Arts (ELA) and Algebra II. In 2023-2024, 77.7% of 9th-grade students were proficient or better in NJSLA/ELA, compared to the state average of 58.1%, and 91.7% were proficient or better in NJSLA/Algebra II, significantly higher than the state average of 69.5%.

While Randolph High School's performance is generally stronger than the nearby Dover High School, it lags behind some of the higher-performing nearby schools, such as West Morris Mendham High School (ranked 25 out of 426) and Morris County School of Technology (ranked 18 out of 426), which have significantly higher academic proficiency rates and overall rankings. Additionally, Randolph High School has experienced a notable increase in chronic absenteeism, from 7.9% in 2021-2022 to 16.6% in 2022-2023, which is an area of concern the school may need to address.

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.
