Here's How Galloway Schools Rank Statewide

GALLOWAY, NJ — For the first time since 2020, New Jersey's school rankings are back, showing how your local schools compare to 2,300 others across the state. And according to state data, Galloway students scores decrease in higher grades.

Along with the school performance reports released the first week of April are school-by-school summative scores and ratings, which compares districts and also gives a number score that measures how well each school is doing in academic achievement and progress. See all school ratings here.

This is the first time parents and teachers have seen results of the rating system since 2020, because state testing was postponed during COVID-19. New Jersey also identifies schools which need support with its ESSA accountability system.

Summative scores provide a number from 1-100, and are based on factors listed above such as graduation rates and progress in English and math. Higher scores are better, and certain schools with lower scores are put into categories for support and improvement.

Schools are compared to one another based on grade level, as well, in the "summative ratings." For example, schools that serve high school students only are compared with one another. These are percentile ratings from 1-100, so a school with a rating closer to 100 is among the best of its peers.
