Best Public Schools in Zip Code 08741

Summary:

The 08741 zip code is home to a single school, Pine Beach Elementary School, which serves students from kindergarten to 5th grade and is part of the Toms River Regional School District. While the school has a diverse student population, its academic performance, as measured by proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science, is significantly lower than the district and state averages.

Pine Beach Elementary School's chronic absenteeism rate of 16.1% is concerning and may be a contributing factor to the school's low academic performance.

Comparing Pine Beach Elementary School's performance to the Toms River Regional School District and the state of New Jersey highlights the school's relative underperformance. Addressing the low academic performance, high chronic absenteeism, and socioeconomic factors may be crucial for the school to improve and better serve its community.
