Summary:
The 07865 zip code is home to a single public elementary school, Mansfield Township Elementary, which serves grades PK-6 with a total enrollment of 543 students. The school has a diverse student population, with a significant percentage of economically disadvantaged students receiving free or reduced-price lunch.
Academically, Mansfield Township Elementary's performance is mixed compared to state averages. While the school's ELA and math proficiency rates range from 34.1% to 52.8%, they generally fall below the state average. The school's science proficiency rate of 25.3% is also slightly below the state average. Additionally, the school's chronic absenteeism rate of 21.7% is relatively high, which may be a contributing factor to the academic performance.
Despite the school's relatively high per-student spending and low student-teacher ratio, its academic performance has been declining, with the school's statewide ranking dropping from 650 out of 1,317 elementary schools in 2020-2021 to 792 out of 1,342 in 2022-2023. This trend suggests that the school's resources may not be effectively utilized, and other factors, such as curriculum, teaching quality, or student engagement, may be more significant drivers of student outcomes. Addressing the socioeconomic and demographic challenges faced by the school's diverse student population could be an important area of focus for improvement.
