Evaluating New Jersey’s Public Schools

The Star-Ledger has put together a great tool to help you evaluate New Jersey’s public schools. They’ve pulled out key information from the New Jersey School Report Card data base – school performance on tests, median teacher salary and experience, spending per pupil, percent school is funded by local revenue sources, and other key financial information.

You can view and rank the information by county or by school district and then drill down to a specific school for more comprehensive information.

This is the second great tool the Star-Ledger has developed recently to help you evaluate property taxes, school funding and performance.
