Best Public Schools in Zip Code 08270


Summary:

The 08270 zip code area is home to two schools - Upper Township Middle School and Woodbine Elementary School. While both serve students in the local community, the data reveals a significant performance gap between the two institutions.

The school consistently achieves high proficiency rates on state assessments, exceeding state averages in most subject areas. Additionally, Upper Township Middle School has a relatively low chronic absenteeism rate of 13.1% and spends $8,169 per student, which is significantly less than the $15,342 per student spent at Woodbine Elementary School.

In contrast, Woodbine Elementary School appears to be underperforming, ranking 989 out of 1,342 New Jersey elementary schools and earning a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. Proficiency rates on state assessments are generally much lower than state and district averages, and the school has a very high chronic absenteeism rate of 36.7%. These disparities raise questions about the factors contributing to the performance gap, such as student demographics, attendance, and resource allocation, which warrant further investigation by the Upper Township School District and Woodbine School District.
