HOBOKEN PUBLIC CHARTER SCHOOLS
Public charter schools are mission-driven, free public schools that operate independently of local district schools, and are overseen by their own Boards of Trustees. Public charter schools in New Jersey are responsible for adhering to the same standards, regulations, and accountability measures as all other public schools (district and charter) across the state. There is no tuition, and admissions is entirely based on an annual public lottery. All three public charter schools in Hoboken offer a weighted lottery that provides triple the chance to students who qualify as low-income. Please visit each school's website for more information.
