These measures follow the same rule on every school page, not a ranking of this school’s biggest changes. Each row names its evidence dates; trend rows do not describe every year in between.
Fall enrollment was 34 students in 2021-22 and 13 students in 2022-23 — 21 fewer students.
See enrollment evidence →The four-year graduation rate was 100.0% in 2021-22 and 100.0% in 2022-23 — the same rate in both years. This profile does not include the cohort count; percentage-point movement can be volatile for smaller graduating cohorts.
See graduation evidence →The chronic-absence rate was 0.0% in 2017-18 and 7.7% in 2022-23 — 7.7 percentage points higher.
See attendance evidence →These are descriptive measures from statewide NJDOE datasets, not a quality rating or an explanation of cause. Proficiency, attendance, and graduation figures use All Students; subgroup patterns may differ.
In its last year on record, 2022-23, it enrolled 13 students in grade 12 only. Enrollment was roughly steady since 2017-18 (19). It peaked at 52 in 2019-20.

In 2017-18, 58% of students were White. By 2022-23 the largest group was Asian, at 54%.

Between 2018-19 and 2022-23 the makeup of this school changed substantially.
The index is half the sum of every group’s change in share, on a 0–100 scale (how it works). At a school this small, a few students moving can swing the index a lot. It is computed from the same counts as the makeup chart above — source: NJDOE Fall Enrollment. Compare any two years in the explorer →
In 2022-23, 0% of students were certified for free or reduced-price lunch.
Share of students certified for free or reduced-price meals, through a household application or an automatic match. The lighter lines show the district overall and the district high schools, 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.
In 2022-23, 100% of students graduated within four years — about the same as in 2021-22.

Graduation assessment requirements were waived for any 12th grade student who had not yet met the graduation assessment requirements, but had met all credit, curriculum, and attendance requirements for graduation. Additionally, the requirement to report on status in meeting annual ESSA targets was waived for 2020-2021. As a result, annual targets and status in meeting those targets are not reported for Cohort 2020 4-year and Cohort 2019 5-year graduation rates.NJDOE 2020-21 workbook notes sheet.
Four-year graduation rate — the share of a class that finishes within four years of entering ninth grade (New Jersey’s state calculation). The lighter lines show the district overall and New Jersey, for comparison. The record runs from 2021-22 to 2022-23, assembled from ten annual workbooks: the current one publishes five graduating classes, and the nine before it publish the rest. The statewide line starts in 2018-19, because that is the first edition in which NJDOE printed a statewide rate beside each school’s own.

In 2022-23, 7.7% of students were chronically absent — missing at least 10% of school days — up from 0% in 2017-18.

The requirement to report status in meeting annual ESSA targets for 2020-2021 was waived. As a result, NJDOE will not report state averages and whether state averages were met for 2020-2021. Additionally, because the number of days students spent in in-person and remote learning environments during the school year differed, the NJDOE recommends caution in comparing 2020-2021 attendance data between schools and districts and to prior or future school years.NJDOE 2020-21 workbook notes sheet.
2019-20 is blank because New Jersey collected no attendance data that year, not because nobody was absent. The requirement to report on chronic absenteeism and related accountability measures for the 2019-2020 school year was waived. As a result, NJDOE will not report on chronic absenteeism and other attendance data for 2019-2020. Tables showing attendance data will be hidden in the 2019-2020 reports.

Chronic absenteeism — the share of students who missed 10% or more of the days they were enrolled (roughly 18 days across a full school year). The lighter line shows the district overall, for comparison. Points from 2018-19 and earlier are matched to this school by its state code; New Jersey’s organization record only reaches back to 2020-08-11, so for those years the code is verified and the identity behind it is not.
