Millburn Students Continue To Score Well

The majority of Millburn-Short Hills students scored at least in the proficient category, although there was some shifting in the number of students who scored as proficient or advanced proficient on the tests.

Schools Supt. James Crisfield said school officials are already aware of the scores, but they don't react to blips between one year and the next. They look for trends over several years as an indication something needs to be addressed in the curriculum, he said.

"We're still in the analysis phase," he said. "But I'm not aware of anything out of the ordinary."

At the high school level, Millburn High School students' average SAT scores dipped slightly compared to the previous year. But the scores still remain higher than the other schools grouped with Millburn by the state.

Additionally, Millburn High School students took 1,048 Advanced Placement exams last May. Of those exams, 994 were scored at three or higher.
