of 1,331 New Jersey Elementary Schools

Better than 99% of New Jersey elementary schools

Summary

Alexander Hamilton School is a 300-student K–5 elementary school in Glen Rock, within the highly ranked Glen Rock Public School District. Its test results are strong across English language arts (ELA), math and science: its three-grade averages in 2025–26 were 88% in ELA and 90% in math, and fifth-grade science proficiency was 76%. The clearest overall finding is its exceptional standing: SchoolDigger ranks the school 12th of 1,331 New Jersey schools, in the 99th percentile with five stars.

Fifth grade is Alexander Hamilton School’s strongest point against nearby schools and its district. Its fifth graders scored 94% in ELA and 96% in math, the highest reported results among nearby schools in those grades; those scores were 9 and 8 percentage points above district results. Fifth-grade science was also the highest among nearby schools with reported results: 76%, compared with a peer average of 49%, and 48 points above the state. Third grade is less dominant against the district: ELA was 1 point below the district average and math was 1 point below, though both scores exceeded nearby-school averages. Across grades, Hamilton’s ELA and math averages were 39 and 42 points above state averages.

Results have remained high, but show little overall growth across the four years through 2025–26: ELA was down about 1 point, math was essentially unchanged, and fifth-grade science was down 3 points. The school’s lead over the district narrowed over that period in all three subjects. Context includes a 12.7 student-teacher ratio in 2024–25, toward the higher end of the nearby range, and 2% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible that year—lower than most nearby schools reporting the same measure. SchoolDigger’s ranking for Asian students was at the 79th percentile in 2025–26, below the school’s overall 99th percentile but up from the 66th percentile the year before. Chronic absenteeism was 4% in 2024–25, close to the district’s 4% and below the state’s 14%.
