Dear Parents:

Exciting news for all New Jersey residents:  starting in September 2011 Stockton Borough School will be a Choice School District and your child may come to our school for free!  There are certain conditions and application deadlines.  Please click here for our Choice School Web page for more information.

We still have a private tuition program for Pre-kindergarten (students who will be four by October 1st) and for students who live in PA.  The tuition cost for our full time K-6 2011-2012 school year is $4,450.*  That is less than $25 per day!  The tuition cost covers all school events, including field trips.  We are a small public elementary school/district located in New Jersey on the Delaware River, approximately three miles north of Lambertville on Highway 29.  We offer a quality educational program in a personalized setting for students in grades PreK-6. Our school hours are 8:30 AM to 3:00 PM.  See link for school calendar for dates we are open.

Highlights of our program include:

  1. Full Day Kindergarten Program with Small Class Sizes
    Our commitment to small class sizes (typically about 10 students per classroom) and strong academic programs, give our students a great start.  Visitors are always impressed at how much progress our students make this first important formative year.  Arrange for a tour and come see for yourself!  Call us at 609 397-2012 for an appt.
  2.  Pre-K Program With an Extended Lunch Option
    The Program runs Monday - Thursday, from 8:30 AM to noon. The cost for our program is for mature 4 year olds and the cost is $3,900 or $390 per month.  A special discounted price of $2,900 is given for Stockton School Residents.  There is an optional extra lunch/socialization hour from noon to 1 PM for an extra $500 per year. Call the school for more information about this program and, if you are interested, to arrange for a pre-K screening appointment to see if your child is developmentally ready for our program.

  3. Small School with a Nurturing Environment
    With about 40 students, our school/district operates like an extended family.  All of our staff know all of our children and we are able to provide a highly personal education with a low teacher-to-student ratio.
  4. Quality Education at an Affordable Price
    Our educational program offers many “extras,” such as World Language in all grades (French for K-6 and Mandarin Chinese for 5th & 6th Grades) and many field trips.  From roller skating and bowling lessons, to an artist-in-residence program, to trips to art museums, the zoo, plays and other cultural events, our students have many opportunities to enjoy a variety of enrichment experiences, which is included in our base tuition cost.   We offer discount pricing for families who have more than one child enrolled.
