Middle School Information Session in Jersey City
As Jersey City grows and families decide to stay in the area as their children get older, parents have requested more information about the Middle School options in Jersey City and Hoboken.
JCFamilies are organizing a Middle School Information Session on December 10th from 5:30 pm-7:30 pm. The idea for this event is to provide options for parents and give them information about the local middle schools in the area. Do you want to know the process of applying for Middle Schools like Academy 1, MS 4, Explore Middle School, or Infinity Institute? Then this session will be perfect for you!

why dont you include any of the schools that is in the AEP (Advenced enrichment program) MS4, academy 1 and infinity school. Those are the top rated middle school programs.
I would like to know how schools were selected to participate in this event. As a teacher at MS 7- one of our public middle schools in Jersey City, I am confused as to why only certain schools are on this list.
Hello Emily,
We reached out to all the schools in Jersey City, but unfortunately most of the public schools do not participate, would you be able to forward the email address for the contact person for your school, we can invite them.
I have been asked to assist in coordinating our school’s participation. I can be reached at [email protected]
Thank you!
The turn out was great! Thank you again for having us! Looking forward to the pictures from the event.
We reached out to all public schools, charter schools, and private Middle schools to participate in the event, some of them did not revert, and a few canceled at the last minute; we want to include as many middle schools as possible.
Hello Cengiz Ozdemir,
Academy 1 and infinity school will be attending the event this year, we are still waiting for the confirmation for MS 4. We will update the list as soon as we hear back from them.
