The 08051 zip code in Mantua Township, New Jersey is home to two high-performing elementary schools: Centre City Elementary School and J. Mason Tomlin Elementary School. Both schools demonstrate strong academic achievement, with students significantly outperforming state averages in English Language Arts and Mathematics.
J. Mason Tomlin Elementary School stands out for its exceptional academic results, with impressive proficiency rates in ELA across grades 4-6.

However, the district may benefit from further analysis and targeted interventions to address the disparities observed in attendance, demographic diversity, and resource allocation across the two schools.
