Summary:
Zip code 07605 has three Anna C. Scott Elementary School (PK–4), Leonia Middle School (grades 5–8) and Leonia High School (grades 9–12), all in the Leonia Public School District. In 2025–26, reported grade-level ELA and math results at all three schools were above their corresponding state results, with a notable high-school exception in Algebra I end-of-course. Because the schools test different grades and courses, their scores are not direct head-to-head comparisons. The clearest overall takeaway is that students’ reported results are generally stronger than state averages, but performance varies by subject and test.
Anna C. Scott stands out for math: its average margin over the state was 25 points, compared with 17 points in ELA. Leonia Middle was more balanced, averaging 16 points above the state in both subjects; its Algebra I proficiency was 100% in grades 7 and 8 and on the end-of-course assessment. At Leonia High, grade 9 ELA and Algebra II were each about 20 points above state results, but Algebra I end-of-course proficiency was 32%, 8 points below the state. So there is no fair overall “top” or “bottom” across the three schools: the strongest results depend on the grade and test.
Recent trends also differ. Anna C. Scott’s average ELA and math margin grew by about 5 points from 2024–25 to 2025–26, while Leonia Middle’s narrowed by about 3 points. At the high school, Algebra I end-of-course results improved by 10 points, while grade 9 Geometry fell by 15; the Algebra II margin widened even as the school’s result fell, because the state result dropped more. SchoolDigger’s 2025–26 rankings placed the high school, middle school and elementary school in the 80th, 84th and 83rd percentiles of their respective statewide groups. For 2024–25, free/reduced lunch eligible shares were 29% at the high school, 21% at the middle school and 18% at the elementary school; student–teacher ratios were 12.8, 12.1 and 9.2, respectively. These are context measures, not explanations for school results.
