NEW EGYPT PRIMARY SCHOOL

New Egypt Primary School is a Title I public elementary school that is part of the Plumsted Township School District school district, located in NEW EGYPT, NJ with about 78 students offering grade levels from Pre-Kindergarten to Kindergarten. 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 8 teachers, New Egypt Primary School has a student/teacher ratio of about 9:1. 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.

The school is deeply integrated into the small-town community of New Egypt, priding itself on a collaborative partnership between educators, families, and the surrounding neighborhood.
