Englewood Public School District operates 5 public schools serving 2,960 students, placing it among the smallest districts in New Jersey. The school portfolio breaks down into 2 elementary, 1 high, 1 combined, 1 middle schools, a small enough portfolio that most families will interact with nearly every campus in the district at some point.

The district's equity score is 72/100, ranked #72 of 587 in New Jersey against a state average of 50, notably more even than the typical district in the state for how evenly funding reaches its schools.

Dwight Morrow High School/Academies@Englewood accounts for 36.6% of all Englewood Public School District student enrollment
That dominant concentration means Englewood Public School District-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the dominant entity. Grade band: high. A single dominant campus often anchors a district's program offerings and staffing patterns; the share helps explain why district-wide averages may not reflect the typical neighbourhood-school experience. When one entity dominates a region's footprint, its programmatic and budget decisions effectively set policy for a majority of the affected population.
Englewood Public School District school enrollment varies 3.2× across entities
Englewood Public School District school enrollment ranges from 342 students (lowest) to 1,083 students (highest), a spread of 741 students.

Englewood Public School District has higher-than-average Title I eligibility — 60.2% of the population qualifies for free or reduced-price lunch
free or reduced-price lunch eligibility is the federal threshold for Title I funding allocations, established under the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA, 2015). Areas above 75% eligibility receive concentration grants on top of the basic Title I formula. Regions with eligibility this high typically draw a substantially larger federal funding share relative to their local tax base, which can either offset or reinforce existing gaps depending on allocation policy.
Englewood Public School District student-counselor ratio is 317:1 — near the typical range (US average ~408) — within the typical range for U.S. public districts
student-counselor ratio is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: the ratio counts FTE counselors against total enrollment, districts that contract intervention or social-emotional staff outside the counselor classification may be under-counted Variation between sub-units within Englewood Public School District is typically wider than the Englewood Public School District-aggregate figure suggests.
Englewood Public School District chronic absenteeism rate is 19.3% — near the typical range (US average ~28) — aligned with the national post-pandemic baseline of roughly 28% chronic absenteeism
chronic absenteeism rate is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: a student is chronically absent if they miss ≥10% of enrolled days for any reason, illness, family obligations, or disengagement Variation between sub-units within Englewood Public School District is typically wider than the Englewood Public School District-aggregate figure suggests.
