Summary:
The 08031 zip code area is home to 3 schools - 2 elementary schools (Bellmawr Park Elementary School and Ethel M Burke Elementary School) and 1 middle school (Bell Oaks Upper Elementary School). These schools serve a population with a significant percentage of students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds, as indicated by the high rates of free and reduced-price lunch eligibility.
Among the standout schools, Bell Oaks Upper Elementary School consistently ranks in the top half of New Jersey middle schools, with strong performance in English Language Arts and exceptional results in Algebra I. Ethel M Burke Elementary School has shown steady improvement in its statewide ranking and outperforms the district and state averages in both English Language Arts and Mathematics. However, the schools face challenges in science proficiency, with low percentages of students meeting or exceeding standards in this subject area.
Overall, the schools in the 08031 zip code area are performing reasonably well, with some notable successes and areas for improvement. The high proportion of economically disadvantaged students may present unique challenges, but the data suggests that the schools are working to address these challenges and provide quality education to their students. Continued focus on improving science proficiency and leveraging the strengths of the top-performing schools could further enhance the educational outcomes for the community.
