Summary:
The 08107 zip code area in New Jersey is home to 5 elementary schools, serving students from diverse backgrounds. While the schools vary in their performance and resources, a few standouts emerge based on the data analysis.
Clyde S. Jennings Elementary School is the top-performing school in the area, ranking 523 out of 1,342 New Jersey elementary schools and earning a 3-star rating. It boasts the lowest chronic absenteeism rate and the highest proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics across multiple grade levels. In contrast, Woodlynne Boro Public School has the highest percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, which correlates with its lower academic performance.
The data also reveals stark differences in test scores among the schools. For example, in 5th grade English Language Arts, Oaklyn Public School had a 56.4% proficiency rate, while Thomas Sharp Elementary School had only a 33.4% proficiency rate. These disparities suggest that the schools in the 08107 zip code area could benefit from collaboration and the sharing of best practices to improve educational outcomes for all students, regardless of their socioeconomic status or school district (Woodlynne School District, Oaklyn Public School District, Collingswood Public School District, or Haddon Township School District).
