Cape May City School District is a community public school district serving students in pre-kindergarten through sixth grade from Cape May, in the U.S. state of New Jersey, at Cape May City Elementary School.[3][4][5]
As of the 2022–23 school year, the district, comprised of one school, had an enrollment of 159 students and 24.3 classroom teachers (on an FTE basis), for a student–teacher ratio of 6.6:1.[1]
Usually, a majority of the students are children of dependents of people at United States Coast Guard Training Center Cape May, which financially and personnel-wise supports Cape May City Elementary. The district also serves students from Cape May Point,[6] who attend as part of a sending/receiving relationship.[6] This is because its school district, Cape May Point School District, is a non-operating district, meaning it does not operate any schools.[7] In 2016, one student came from Cape May Point.[8]
The district is classified by the New Jersey Department of Education as being in District Factor Group "CD", the sixth-highest of eight groupings. District Factor Groups organize districts statewide to allow comparison by common socioeconomic characteristics of the local districts. From lowest socioeconomic status to highest, the categories are A, B, CD, DE, FG, GH, I and J.[9]
For seventh through twelfth grades, public school students attend the schools of the Lower Cape May Regional School District, which serves students from Cape May City, Cape May Point, Lower Township and West Cape May.[10] Schools in the district (with 2021–22 enrollment data from the National Center for Education Statistics[11]) are Richard M. Teitelman Middle School[12] with 439 students in grades 7-8 and Lower Cape May Regional High School (LCMRHS)[13] with 764 students in grades 9-12.[14]
