Long Hill School Information

The Long Hill Township School District serves one thousand eighty-six students in our three schools. The New Jersey Report Card provides the public with an opportunity to compare our schools in relation to state averages in a large number of subjects. The state requires this to be done by school, not by district; hence each school has its own report card.

How
Students Performed on State Reading and Math Tests
|
| These state test results show how
well students have mastered reading and math skills in
comparison to state standards. State test results alone
do not convey a complete picture of academic
achievement, and should be viewed with other performance
and demographic information. |

How
Students Performed on State Reading and Math Tests over
Time
|
| In addition to comparing student
performance on state tests to other comparison groups,
it is important to compare the district to itself over
time to understand the district's success in increasing
student achievement. |

Enrollment of Students
with Special Needs (2007)
|
| The percentage of students with
special needs is important to consider when viewing
student performance because these students often require
additional instruction and resources to help them
achieve their full potential. |

Spending
Summary
|
| Examining spending allocations can
help shed light on a district's priorities. Operating
expenditures represent funds used for the day-to-day
operations of districts, whereas instructional
expenditures represent the subset of funds spent only on
activities dealing directly with teaching and the
classroom. |
|
|
|
Adult
Education Levels
|
| When reviewing a district's
performance, it is also important to learn about the
surrounding community, as there is often a relationship
between a community's income and education levels and
student performance. |
