BRICK, 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 the data, the numbers at each school from elementary to high school can vary greatly.
Along with the school performance reports released the first week of April are school-by-school summative scores and ratings, which compare districts and give 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 that need support with its ESSA accountability system.

Summative scores provide a number from 1-100, and are based on factors including graduation rates, chronic absenteeism, and progress in English and math. Higher scores are better. Some schools with lower scores are put into categories for support and improvement.

Schools are compared based on grade level 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.
