Stevens Cooperative School
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Stevens Cooperative School (also known as SCS), founded in 1949, is the only nonsectarian private elementary school in Hoboken, New Jersey[1]. 78% of the students in the school are white[2]. The school started as an informal playgroup for children of the faculty at Stevens Institute of Technology. The School has since grown into a nursery and elementary school, and it has campuses in Hoboken and Jersey City. Today, from Nursery through the 8th grade, nearly 300 students are in the school[3]. The principal of the school is Zoe L. Hauser. Stevens Cooperative School is a member of the New Jersey Association of Independent Schools. The school's website claims that the students are "happy and motivated"[4], but other websites with reviews have shown that statements like these are not necessarily true.[5][6]
