N.J. standardized test scores are here. See how your district did in spring 2022.

New Jersey student proficiency rates fell to 2015 levels during the COVID-19 pandemic, but education officials and advocates said the states recently released test scores could help guide future efforts to address those losses.

The long-awaited scores, released Friday, show that 51.1% of students in the states more than 600 districts were not meeting grade expectations in English Language Arts and 64.6% were not meeting expectations in mathematics.

In the spring of 2020 and 2021, students did not take the New Jersey Student Learning Assessments (NJSLA), formerly known as PARCC. They took a shorter version, called Start Strong, in the fall of 2021 and 2022.
