NEW JERSEY – Even in the middle of a pandemic, the SATs still play a role for New Jersey seniors who are already looking at colleges – even as testing has been delayed or centers have been closed because of the coronavirus.
So Patch put together the list of each New Jersey high school's just-released average scores that the state released and ranked them from top to bottom.
But locally, the Point Pleasant Beach School District ranked 61 on the list of 307 districts with an overall score of 1156, while the Point Pleasant Borough School District ranked 90 on the list of 307 districts with an overall score of 1128. In Math, Point Beach ranked 66 with a 576, and Point Boro ranked right behind at 68 with a 575. in Reading and Writing, Point Beach ranked 61 with an average of 580, while Point Boro ranked 116 with a score of 553.
A perfect SAT score would be 1600, or 800 in each section.
These reports are designed to inform parents, educators, and communities about how well a school is performing and preparing its students for college and careers, according to the DOE.
"We have always stated that the annual School Performance Reports serve as a springboard for discussion," said Angelica Allen-McMillan, acting commissioner of education.
"These discussions are more important now than ever before as students, staff, and others in the school community navigate this difficult time."
