Cranbury School continues to enhance our trainings, programs and procedures relative to harassment, intimidation and bullying as evidenced in the Anti-Bullying Bill of Rights District and School Grade Report. The official District/School Grade Report, issued by the New Jersey Department of Education, is currently provided for community review. The school grade is a raw score of data and the sum of the ratings for all indicators within each of the eight core elements on the School Self-Assessment.  The maximum total score for a school is 78 points.
