Summary:

Weymouth Township Elementary School stands out in several ways. It has a significantly higher percentage of white students (74.36%) compared to the surrounding schools, which tend to be more diverse. Academically, the school's performance on NJSLA tests is generally higher than the state average, with 53.9% of 3rd graders proficient or better in ELA, compared to the state average of 42%. However, the school has experienced a concerning increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 6.1% in 2018-2019 to 30.9% in 2021-2022, which is notably higher than the 12-26% range of nearby schools. Additionally, the school has a relatively high percentage of students (44.87%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a higher proportion of students from low-income families.

While Weymouth Township Elementary School has maintained a consistent 2-star rating from SchoolDigger over the past decade, there are some interesting findings to note. The school's performance data shows notable differences in the rankings of female and male students, with female students ranking 97th out of 1,326 New Jersey elementary schools, while male students ranked 713th out of 1,324 in 2021-2022. Additionally, the performance of white students at the school has declined over the years, from a 3-star ranking in 2021-2022 to a 2-star ranking in 2022-2023, despite the school's overall higher academic achievement compared to nearby schools like Holly Heights Elementary School and Vineland Public Charter School.

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.
