  • New Jersey's Best Schools in 2013
    NEW JERSEY’S BEST SCHOOLS IN 2013 Table of contents Elementary Schools 4 Performance Gains 5 Low-Income Student Performance 6 Black Student Performance 7 Latino Student Performance 8 Student Performance 9 Middle Schools 10 Performance Gains 11 Low-Income Student Performance 12 Black Student Performance 13 Latino Student Performance 14 Student Performance 15 High Schools 16 Low-Income Student Performance 17 Black Student Performance 18 Latino Student Performance 19 Student Performance 20 About the Top 10s JerseyCAN ranks schools in key areas so parents can compare schools to one another. We use these public school rankings to generate Top 10 Lists, which show the top-performing schools in five different areas: • Student performance • Low-income student performance • Black student performance • Latino student performance • Performance gains* Each subgroup’s performance score is an average of their reading and math proficiency at the highest tested grade level in that school. In order for a school to be on the Top 10 list for a major subgroup (low- income, black or Latino), the student body it serves must reflect the statewide student demographics for that subgroup. For example, Latinos represent 23 percent of New Jersey's population. For a school to be on the Top 10 list for Latino student performance, therefore, at least 23 percent of its students must be Latino. The statewide student demographics for all subgroups are as follows: 35% = Low-Income 16% = Black 23% = Latino * There are no performance gains at the high school level because reading and math are only tested once) NEW JERSEY TOP TEN SCHOOLS, 2013 JERSEYCAN 3 Top 10 Elementary Schools TOP 10 ELEMENTARY SCHOOLS Traditional public school Performance gains Charter school RANK NAME % POINT CHANGE IN PROFICIENCY Bayonne Board of Education 1 Nicholas Oresko School 20.2 Ewing Township Public Schools 2 Antheil Elementary School 19.0 Passaic City Public Schools 3 Theodore Roosevelt School No.
