Summary

Gloucester City High School is a public high school serving 731 students in grades 9-12 in Gloucester City, New Jersey, which is part of the Gloucester City Public School District. The school's academic performance is generally in the middle range for New Jersey high schools, with proficiency rates below the state average in English Language Arts and Mathematics. However, the school's graduation rate of around 91-92% is slightly below the state average, and it has a relatively high chronic absenteeism rate compared to the state.

When compared to nearby high schools, Triton Regional High School and Collingswood High School perform on par with or slightly better than Gloucester City High School. However, the school lags behind higher-performing schools like Haddon Township High School and Haddon Heights Junior/Senior High School. Interestingly, Gloucester City High School's Hispanic and African American students perform significantly better than their peers at the nearby Camden City schools, which have very low proficiency rates.

Overall, Gloucester City High School is a middle-performing school that is doing a reasonably good job serving its diverse student population, but has room for improvement in areas like academic achievement, graduation rates, and chronic absenteeism. The school's spending per student is slightly below the state average, suggesting it is achieving academic outcomes on par with or better than its spending level would suggest.
