Summary:
The area has one school, Elysian Charter School of Hoboken, an elementary school serving kindergarten through grade 8, with 292 students. Its reported NJSLA results cover grades 3–8 in English language arts (ELA) and math, and grades 5 and 8 in science. There are no other area schools for comparison, and the school’s Algebra I result is unavailable because it was suppressed. The most important finding is that in 2025–2026, every reported grade-and-subject result was above the matching New Jersey rate.
The school’s average proficiency was 86% in ELA, compared with 51% statewide; 77% in math, compared with 40%; and 65% in science, compared with 23%. Those average advantages were 35, 37, and 42 percentage points, respectively, with science’s result based on just two tested grades. The clearest relative weak spot was grade 8 math: 39% were proficient, versus 88% in grade 7, although the grade 8 result was still 16 points above the state’s 23%. Grade 7 math had the largest state advantage, at 50 points. The highest reported result was 94% in grade 8 ELA.
Recent results generally moved upward, but not in every grade. Across the same six grades, average ELA proficiency rose 5 points from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026, and its advantage over the state widened 8 points. Math proficiency across the comparable grades 3–7 rose 7 points, with the state gap widening 7 points. Science’s average increased 2 points, but that masks a 17-point drop in grade 5 and a 22-point rise in grade 8. SchoolDigger places the school in the 97th percentile for 2025–2026, up from the 94th percentile the prior year; it gives the Elysian Charter School district five stars and a rank of 8 out of 607. As context, 10% of students were eligible for free or reduced-price lunch in 2024–2025, the student–teacher ratio was 11.8, and chronic absenteeism was 6%, below the state’s 14%.
