SCHOOL 8

SCHOOL 8 is a Title I public elementary school that is part of the Paterson Public School District school district, located in PATERSON, NJ with about 482 students offering grade levels from Kindergarten to 8th Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education. With about 40 teachers, SCHOOL 8 has a student/teacher ratio of about 12:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

SCHOOL 8, located at 35 Chadwick Street in Paterson, New Jersey, is a public elementary school serving the local community within the Paterson Public Schools district. The school is situated in a residential area and functions as a foundational educational institution for students in its attendance zone, focusing on core curriculum standards and academic development for children in the primary grade levels.

As part of the Paterson school system, the institution emphasizes community-based education and is tasked with meeting the diverse needs of its student population. Like other schools in the district, it provides a structured learning environment designed to foster basic literacy, numeracy, and social-emotional growth, while working within the framework of the New Jersey Department of Education’s academic requirements.
