Enrollment, by grade

In its last year on record, 2017-18, it enrolled 73 students in pre-K only. That is 114 fewer than in 2008-09 (187) — the school had shrunk. It peaked at 412 in 2012-13. Its biggest cohort is pre-K.

Students enrolled in each grade each fall, stacked to the total — so the top edge is total enrollment. Bands run from the lowest grade (light) to the highest (dark); a band that appears or disappears is a grade the school added or dropped. “Other” is students with no grade level (mostly special education), so the bands always sum to total.

What the school looks like

In 2008-09, 49% of students were Black. By 2017-18 the largest group was Hispanic, at 59%.

How much the mix changed

Between 2013-14 and 2017-18 the makeup of this school shifted noticeably.

Hispanic +3.9·Black −3.4·Asian +3.3

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 the district overall, 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.
