Green-Fields Elementary School

Summary:

Green-Fields Elementary School is a public elementary school in Woodbury, New Jersey, serving 504 students in grades 1-4. The school is part of the West Deptford Township School District, which is ranked 388 out of 615 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Green-Fields Elementary School stands out in several ways. It has a higher percentage of White students (67.26%) compared to nearby schools like Evergreen Avenue Elementary School and Walnut Street School, which have significantly lower percentages of White students. However, the school's academic performance, as measured by NJSLA test scores, is generally lower than the state averages and the performance of some nearby schools, such as Wenonah Elementary School. Additionally, Green-Fields Elementary School has experienced a significant increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 3.0% in 2017-2018 to 18.8% in 2021-2022, which is higher than the rates of nearby schools like Oakview Elementary School and Wenonah Elementary School.

The analysis of Green-Fields Elementary School also reveals some interesting findings. The school's statewide ranking has steadily declined over the past several years, from 632 out of 1,317 New Jersey elementary schools in 2020-2021 to 910 out of 1,342 in 2022-2023. Additionally, while the school's African American students have consistently outperformed the state averages, the school's White and male students have struggled, with their rankings placing them in the bottom quartile of New Jersey elementary schools. These disparities in subgroup performance, along with the significant differences in academic performance and other key metrics compared to nearby schools, suggest that the local context and community factors may play a significant role in shaping the school's outcomes.

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.
