Summary:
The Gloucester County Vocational-Technical School District has one high school, Gloucester County Institute of Technology, serving grades 9–12 and 1,657 students in Gloucester County, New Jersey. The clearest takeaway for families is that GCIT’s latest results are well above state rates in ELA, science and NJGPA mathematics, but substantially below state rates in Algebra II.
Because GCIT is the only school listed, there is no meaningful school-to-school comparison; its strongest and weakest results are across subjects. In 2025–2026, grade 9 ELA was 82%, compared with 51% statewide, a 30-point advantage; grade 11 science was 50% versus 29%, a 21-point advantage; and grade 11 NJGPA mathematics was 87% versus 61%, a 26-point advantage. Algebra II was the clearest area of concern: GCIT scored 33%, versus 52% statewide for the end-of-course result, 19 points lower, and versus 53% for grade 9, 20 points lower. Graduation and attendance measures were also favorable in 2024–2025: the graduation rate was 95% versus 89% statewide, chronic absenteeism was 10% versus 14%, and the dropout rate was 0% versus 1%.
Results changed unevenly over time, with the sharpest deterioration in math. From 2024–2025 to 2025–2026, GCIT’s grade 9 Algebra II result fell from 81% to 33%; its average across the three grade 9 NJSLA math tests dropped from 64% to 39%, while the state average fell from 53% to 42%. In contrast, grade 9 ELA rose from 63% to 82%, and its advantage over the state grew from 13 to 30 points. SchoolDigger gives GCIT four stars in each of the three years shown; its percentile was 80th in 2025–2026, down from 84th the prior year but up from 70th in 2023–2024. GCIT reports a 15:1 student-teacher ratio and 12% free/reduced lunch eligible in 2024–2025; these figures describe the school, but cannot be compared with another school in this list.
