Summary:
The 08029 zip code area has only one school, Glendora Elementary School, which serves grades K-5 and is part of the Gloucester Township Public Schools district. While the school's performance is generally higher than the district average, it consistently ranks in the bottom half of New Jersey elementary schools and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Glendora Elementary School's proficiency rates in NJSLA/English Language Arts and Mathematics are higher than the district averages but lower than the state averages, with the exception of 5th-grade English Language Arts where the school outperforms the state. However, the school's proficiency rates in NJSLA-S/Science for 5th grade are significantly lower than both the district and state averages, indicating a need for improvement in science education. The school has a relatively high free and reduced-price lunch rate of 25.75%, suggesting a significant population of economically disadvantaged students who may require additional resources and support.
Overall, the analysis suggests that Glendora Elementary School is an underperforming school within the Gloucester Township Public Schools district, with room for improvement in academic achievement, particularly in science. The school's consistent low rankings and the disparity in proficiency rates compared to the state averages highlight the need for targeted interventions and support to enhance the educational outcomes for its students.
