Summary:
The Greenwich Township School District in New Jersey operates two schools: Broad Street Elementary School and Nehaunsey Middle School. While both schools face challenges, the data analysis reveals that Nehaunsey Middle School is the stronger performer of the two.
Nehaunsey Middle School outperforms Broad Street Elementary on several key metrics, including a higher statewide ranking with a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger compared to Broad Street Elementary's 2-star rating. Nehaunsey Middle School also exceeds the district and state averages on many of the NJSLA test score metrics, particularly in English Language Arts. In contrast, Broad Street Elementary struggles with lower test scores compared to the district and state averages across all grade levels.
Both schools have relatively high chronic absenteeism rates, which is an area of concern and likely contributes to the lower academic performance. Additionally, the disparities in per-student spending between the two schools are noteworthy, with Nehaunsey Middle spending significantly more per student than Broad Street Elementary. Overall, the Greenwich Township School District as a whole is underperforming compared to the state, indicating the need for comprehensive improvement strategies to raise the academic achievement of its students.
