Summary

Glen Rock High School serves 722 students in grades 9–12 in Glen Rock, a Bergen County community. Its strongest overall story is that students outperform New Jersey on every reported test result with a numeric score: for example, grade 9 English proficiency is 80% versus 51% statewide, and grade 11 NJGPA Mathematics proficiency is 90% versus 61%. The most important caution is Algebra I: it is above the state, but less distinctive than the school’s other results and notably below the district on one measure.

Compared with nearby schools, Glen Rock is strong in English and advanced math, but does not lead in every subject. Its grade 9 English result of 80% trails only Applied Technology High School among schools with reported scores, while its 90% on grade 11 NJGPA Mathematics is the highest reported nearby result, just above Ridgewood High School at 88%. Algebra I is a relative weak spot: Glen Rock’s grade 9 result is 40.3%, close to Midland Park Junior/Senior High School at 40.0% and below Fair Lawn High School at 49%. In the End-of-Course comparison, Glen Rock is 33 points below the Glen Rock Public School District (40.3% versus 73.5%), though slightly above the state (40.3% versus 39.9%).

Results have improved from their starting point in several subjects, but trends are uneven: grade 9 Algebra I rose 23 points from 2022–2023 to 2025–2026, while grade 11 science fell 14 points and its advantage over the state narrowed from 32 points to 20. In 2025–2026, SchoolDigger ranked Glen Rock 51st of 434 New Jersey high schools, at the 88th percentile with four stars; locally, only Applied Technology ranked higher among nearby schools with current data. The 2024–2025 student–teacher ratio was 10.0, below the nearby-school average of 12.7. Also as context, 0.6% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible in 2024–2025, compared with nearby rates ranging from 3.2% to 65%; these figures describe the school community, not what causes its results.
