Summary:
The area covered here has one school, Hoboken Dual Language Charter School, an elementary school serving kindergarten through grade 8 with 441 students. There are no other listed schools to compare locally, so the clearest picture comes from its test results, state comparisons, and changes over time. The most important finding is that the school scored above New Jersey in every listed 2025–2026 subject-and-grade comparison.
The sole school stands out strongly against the state: its average advantage was 40 percentage points in ELA, 42 in math, and 43 in science. The school’s average scores were 91% in ELA versus 51% statewide, 86% in math versus 44%, and 66% in science versus 23%. Algebra I results were also above the state, though the comparison matters: the end-of-course gap was 49 points, while the grade 8 gap was 15. Results vary by grade within the school: math ranged from 96% in grade 4 to 77% in grade 7, and science from 76% in grade 5 to 57% in grade 8. Because only one school is listed, there is no local top-versus-bottom comparison.
Results improved in some areas and slipped in others: matched-grade averages rose 1 point in math and 3 in science, but fell 1 point in ELA from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026. Algebra I’s end-of-course score increased 11 points, from 79% to 89%; however, grade 7 math fell 17 points while grade 6 math rose 14. SchoolDigger ranked Hoboken Dual Language Charter School 6th of 1,331 New Jersey schools in 2025–2026, up from 18th of 1,347 the prior year. Other context for 2024–2025: the student-teacher ratio was 22, 9% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible, and chronic absenteeism was 6% versus 14% statewide. These background figures describe the school but do not explain its test results.
