The school was founded in 1997, following the passage, by the New Jersey Legislature, of the Charter School Program Act of 1995. From the original class of 72, the school has grown to around 400 students. Students from the school go on to Princeton High School or one of several private schools in and around Princeton. The Charter School is a top academic performer statewide, especially in standardized testing, with 91% of students proficient in math and 92% of students proficient in reading. In 2019, the school was ranked as having the best teachers in the state by Niche.com. The main focus of Princeton Charter School's academics is on "core academic skills", with an emphasis on English and mathematics, which meet daily for one hour, while classes such as history and science meet daily for 45 minutes. A silent reading period is built into the schedule for students to receive individual help, as well as three recess period for all grades. As of the 2017–18 school year, the school had an enrollment of 400 students and 37.8 classroom teachers (on an FTE basis), for a student–teacher ratio of 10.6:1. There are about 50 students in each grade, with smaller class sizes intended to provide a more "close-knit" atmosphere for students, and to allow them “to be known and to feel known”. (en)
