New School Performance Reports: See How Barnegat-Manahawkin Did

BARNEGAT-MANAHAWKIN, NJ — Want to see how the local school districts fared compared to others during the 2022-23 school year? The New Jersey Department of Education recently released the latest School Performance Report, showing how schools fared in the last school year.

In the report are "summative scores," which provide a number from 1-99, and are based on factors listed above such as graduation rates and progress in English and math. Higher scores are better, and certain schools with lower scores are put into categories for support and improvement.

Schools are compared to one another based on grade level, as well, in the "summative ratings." For example, schools that serve high school students only are compared with one another. These are percentile ratings from 1-100, so a school with a rating closer to 100 is among the best of its peers.

Here's how local schools compare. Note that schools serving only elementary students under grade 3 do not get a score, because their students do not participate in state standardized tests.
