GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

I went to Avenel Middle School from 2007-2009. While there I was involved in various different clubs like Art Club, Student Council, and National Junior Honor Society. I was also on the track and field team and in the Gifted-n-Talented program. I am grateful for all the teachers and staff that encouraged me to get involved and made my involvement a means for me to grow.

I don’t recommend sending your child to this school unless you gonna bring them your own lunch because this school will barley have any. P.s teaches are blin*. Also the classrooms are always noisy so your child might not be able to concentrate and some people can get bullied and the teacher won’t do...

By far the rudest school staff I have ever come across! Especially the guidance counselors. The nurse is also very incompetent and useless! The teachers have been great so far!
