Summary:
The 08731 zip code area is home to two schools - Lacey Township Middle School and Forked River Elementary School, both part of the Lacey Township School District. While Lacey Township Middle School demonstrates strong performance in Algebra I and Geometry, it struggles with Mathematics and Science proficiency. In contrast, Forked River Elementary School lags behind the district and state averages in both English Language Arts and Mathematics.
Both schools face challenges with higher-than-average chronic absenteeism rates, which could impact academic outcomes. Socioeconomic factors also play a role, as the schools have relatively high percentages of students from lower-income families eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. Racially, the student populations at both schools are predominantly White, with smaller percentages of Hispanic and Asian students.
Overall, the data highlights the need for the district to address the academic performance disparities between the two schools, as well as the high chronic absenteeism rates. Addressing these challenges, while also considering the socioeconomic and demographic factors, could be valuable for enhancing the educational outcomes for students in the 08731 zip code area.
