Small with a friendly atmosphere, the Thomas G. Connors School is a close-knit community. A charismatic administration and faculty can be found walking the halls and interacting with the students at every level. There is a strong focus on rigorous professional development for teachers combined with nurturing deep relationships with the households that are a part of the community.
Holiday celebrations are a big part of the school culture and a way for the entire school community to share laughs and make memories. The school's Fall Festival provides food, games and music to make students eager and excited for the new school year and ready to appreciate the coming months' colors, traditions and crisper air. As part of the Hoboken School District, students are offered a comprehensive breakfast and lunch program. The school's principal was one of Hoboken's educators nominated for a Life Changer of the Year Award by the National Life Group.

I have 2 children at Connor's. We have been at this school for 6 years. One is graduating from 5th grade and going to the public middle school. We are so impressed by the small school feel (smallest public elementary school out of the 3 elementary schools in town). All the families know each other and is such a lovely diverse group in the neighborhood. My kids have thrived including one in the G&T John Hopkins program. The other was slower to start and by the end of the year has surpassed my expectations. The teachers are the reason for their achievements. They care. They challenge. They visibility enjoy working at the school. The leadership is beyond impressive. The Principal and Vice Principal make such a great team. This is the school to be. A hidden gem in the SW corner of a Hoboken.

When it’s bad it’s BAD and the whole place (teachers, parents) seem like a cliquey mess. There are some wonderful teachers there, but the community seems fake, and serious issues are swept right under the rug.

Hidden gem! Connors has shaken it's old reputation and quickly become the premier elementary school in Hoboken. Incredible teachers, wonderful families, small community, and stellar performance make this the ideal school for our elementary school kids. So lucky and thankful we got in.

This is a small school and very family-like atmosphere. The principle and the Vice principle are doing a phenomenal job as well as the teachers and staff. The building is old but classes are well maintained.
