How much the mix changed

Between 2007-08 and 2011-12 the makeup of this district shifted noticeably.

That’s a larger shift than 88% of Cape May County districts. The biggest moves, in percentage points:
White −10.3·Two or more +8.9·Hispanic +2.9

The index is half the sum of every group’s change in share, on a 0–100 scale (how it works). It is computed from the same counts as the makeup chart above — source: NJDOE Fall Enrollment. Compare any two years in the explorer →

Share of students certified for free or reduced-price meals, through a household application or an automatic match. The lighter line shows Cape May County, for comparison. Some districts serve free meals to every student under the Community Eligibility Provision. Those districts often stop collecting household income forms, so their reported share can run below the number of low-income students they enroll. Source: NJDOE Fall Enrollment.

How the state has judged this district

The waiver record. Annual editions between 2012 and 2016, most recent first. Read each band against itself and not against the others — the state changed what it measured, and how, twice inside those five years.

New Jersey’s ESEA Flexibility waiver ended after the 2016 edition, and the archive bundles for 2017 and 2018 return 404 on every build of the source release. That bounds the waiver record; it says nothing about the ESSA record above, which runs from 2016-17 without a break the state did not itself declare.

2012 – 2014 · progress targets, on NJASK and HSPA

Each group large enough to score was measured against a progress target set for it individually, on NJASK and HSPA. These three years are comparable with each other. Most cells are empty by design — a group below the state’s minimum size got no determination at all. YES* never means the target was met. In these editions it marks a group that missed the printed target and was credited inside a 95% confidence interval, and it appears in the performance column.

2012 preliminary

New Jersey labelled this edition preliminary, and never published a final one. A dash means the group was below the state’s own minimum size — 40 students for participation, 30 for performance — so nothing was determined for it at all.

The waiver determinations are what New Jersey printed on this district’s annual ESEA accountability profile, kept exactly as printed and corrected from nothing. Each edition’s glyphs are read against that edition’s own legend, because the same asterisk means different things in different years. Editions this district does not appear in are simply absent here; no year is inferred from its neighbours. Source: NJDOE’s Title I accountability archive, 2012–2016.
