West Orange High School

Summary:

West Orange High School is a public high school serving 2,151 students in grades 9-12 in West Orange, New Jersey, which is part of the West Orange Public Schools district.

While the school performs well for certain student subgroups, such as Asian students (ranked 34 out of 174 high schools) and African American students (ranked 62 out of 260 high schools), it struggles with Hispanic students (ranked 183 out of 394 high schools) and English Language Learners (ranked 102 out of 179 high schools). The school's overall academic performance on NJSLA assessments is generally below the state average, with only 60.4% of 9th graders proficient or better in English Language Arts and 15.3% proficient or better in Algebra I. However, the school performs better in Geometry, with 73.5% of 9th graders proficient or better, but struggles in Algebra II with only 20.2% of 9th graders proficient or better. Science proficiency is also low, with only 26.5% of 11th graders proficient or better on the NJSLA-S assessment.

Compared to nearby high-performing schools like Livingston High School and Glen Ridge High School, West Orange High School performs significantly worse on standardized test scores, particularly in math. However, the school outperforms lower-ranked schools like East Orange Campus High School and Orange High School in both academic and non-academic metrics. The school's high chronic absenteeism rate, ranging from 16.6% to 31.9% over the past few years, may be contributing to the lower academic performance and is an area of concern that the school and district could 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.

Poor overall performance, overcrowded facilities, hallways are deafeningly loud, student body is generally unruly. Motivated students will succeed in any school system but WOHS does little to motivate the others. Close Quote

My son attends 10th grade at WOHS. I was not happy with the idea of him going to a public school with negative reviews posted all over.

After two years, I have changed my mind dramatically, the teachers are absolutely fantastic and they strive for the students to reach their full potential. My son loves school, engages with the teachers and has outlined his career path.

His friends are excellent boys, intelligent and honorable.

The school diversity makes it a real world environment, so when he goes to college he will be used to all kinds of people.

Bottom line, don't let any of the negative postings discourage you from having your child attend WOHS. Close Quote

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.
