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 232 students in 2016-17 and 232 students in 2017-18 — the same count in both years.
See enrollment evidence →The four-year graduation rate was 85.0% in 2012-13 and 100.0% in 2017-18 — 15.0 percentage points higher. 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 26.2% in 2015-16 and 12.8% in 2017-18 — 13.4 percentage points lower.

The largest group in both 2011-12 and 2017-18 was Hispanic students — 48% then, 48% now.
Each group’s share of enrollment over time, or its head count — toggle above. New Jersey expanded race and ethnicity reporting from five to seven categories in 2006-07 (dashed line), so “two or more races” appears only after; Asian here includes Pacific Islander. Source: NJDOE Fall Enrollment.
Between 2013-14 and 2017-18 the makeup of this school barely moved.
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 →
In 2017-18, 62.9% 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 2017-18, 100% of students graduated within four years — up from 85% in 2012-13.
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 line shows the district overall, for comparison. The figures for 2012-13 and 2013-14 are printed to the whole percent: that is how the 2015-16 workbook published them, and it is the only edition that does. Points from 2017-18 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.

In 2017-18, 12.8% of students were chronically absent — missing at least 10% of school days — down from 26.2% in 2015-16.
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 2017-18 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.

2016-17 · the ESSA record
New Jersey has published a summative rating for Middlesex Co Voc School Piscataway School Of Career Develop in one school year under ESSA. The rating is a percentile inside a group of schools NJDOE considers comparable — where the school placed among them, not a score and not a grade.
There is one rating here, for 2016-17. One rating is a reading, not a direction.
The long numbers are NJDOE’s own. It rounded the summative score in the 2016-17 preliminary edition, stopped rounding for the 2016-17 final through 2018-19, and rounded again from 2021-22 on. This page prints what each edition printed and shortens nothing.
| School year | Percentile in group | Summative score | NJDOE’s group | Identification |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2016-17 final | 36.61971830985916 | 42.41186492524713 | High | No comprehensive or targeted status published for this school |
| NJDOE published 2016-17 twice. The preliminary edition below measures the same school year as the final one above it, with seven indicators instead of eight — Progress toward ELP was, in the state’s January 2018 words, “not yet available”. Every one of the 2,105 summative scores moved between the two. It is one year, not two, and the preliminary edition is comparable with nothing. | ||||
