The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

This place is full of selfish, arrogant, entitled parents and kids. Unsurprisingly bullying is rampant amongst the students. My kids mental health has been harmed. It's like every obnoxious parent in town sent their kid here. Not what I was expecting.

Excellent learning environment. Small school, K-8 structure are real benefits. Expert, caring, and dedicated staff. Stellar results. World language programs stand out starting in kindergarten 3 days/week and everyday in grades 1-8.

Hands down THE BEST SCHOOL!!! This is our thrid school, after A+ schools in NYC and PA, and we cannot praise enough Princeton Charter School. Aside from offering a highly educational environment, the school also goes above and beyond on providing excellent special ed services and assimilating our children withing the general class in accordance to their IEPs.

Easily the best school in the Princeton School District. Very high academic standards and lots of options to go deeper into the subjects if the student is interested. Excellent French language program. The teachers care deeply about the students success and really connect with the parents too. This...
