How much the mix changed

Between 2017-18 and 2020-21 the makeup of this school shifted noticeably.

That’s a larger shift than 90% of Burlington County high schools. That roughly tracks the district overall (8.2) — a district-wide change more than a school-specific one. The biggest moves, in percentage points:
Hispanic +9.1·White −5.6·Black −3.5

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 →

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.

Chronic absenteeism

In 2017-18, 63.6% of students were chronically absent — missing at least 10% of school days.

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.
