Summary:
Hopatcong, New Jersey, has four listed schools—two elementary schools, one middle school and one high school—serving students from elementary through high-school grades. Test results are available for Tulsa Trail Elementary School, Hopatcong Middle School and Hopatcong High School, but not for Durban Avenue Elementary School. The clearest area-wide finding is that the latest matched-grade results were farther below state results in math than in ELA: an average of 12 points below in math versus 8 points below in ELA.
Tulsa Trail was closest to state results among the reported 2025–2026 NJSLA results: third-grade ELA was 46% versus 48% statewide, and math was 47% versus 49%. Hopatcong Middle had more uneven results; its sixth-grade math result was 22%, 18 points below the state, while its sixth-grade ELA was 47%, 4 points below. Hopatcong High was near the state result on 11th-grade NJGPA ELA—75% versus 76%—but ninth-grade NJSLA ELA was 29%, 23 points below state. Durban Avenue has no test-score entries in the supplied data, and the schools’ different grade spans limit direct overall comparisons.
Matched-grade results moved closer to state over the two years, especially in ELA, though not in every grade. The average ELA gap narrowed from 15 points to 8, while the math gap narrowed from 14 to 12; some middle-school grade-level gaps widened. SchoolDigger’s statewide percentile rankings also rose from 2023–2024 to 2025–2026: Tulsa Trail from 26 to 46, Hopatcong Middle from 22 to 37, and Hopatcong High from 23 to 30. In 2024–2025, free/reduced lunch eligible shares ranged from 34% at Durban Avenue to 42% at Tulsa Trail; student-teacher ratios ranged from 11.4 at Durban Avenue to 13.1 at Tulsa Trail. These are useful context alongside the school results, not explanations for them.
