Flemington-Raritan Regional School District

The Flemington-Raritan Regional School District is a comprehensive regional public school district in eastern Hunterdon County, New Jersey, which serves an enrollment of nearly 3,600 children in kindergarten through eighth from the neighboring communities of Flemington Borough (400 students) and Raritan Township 3,150 students).

Upon graduation from eighth grade, students from both communities attend the Hunterdon Central Regional High School, part of the Hunterdon Central Regional High School District, which serves almost 2,800 students in central Hunterdon County.

Accessed March 9, 2008. "Located in beautiful, historic Hunterdon County in central New Jersey, Hunterdon Central Regional High School serves the five municipalities of Delaware Township, East Amwell Township, Flemington Borough, Raritan Township, and Readington Township."]

The District's four elementary schools offer students in grades K-4 a comprehensive educational program emphasizing process instruction techniques, cooperative learning, and integration of subject content areas. The K-2 program uses a balanced literacy approach to reading while math and science are taught through hands-on experiences. In heterogeneous classes, these students also study social studies and use computers. The 3-5 program includes literature-based reading, process writing, hands-on math and science, social studies and computers, all taught in heterogeneous classes. Teachers develop themes to integrate content areas wherever possible. Related arts instruction includes art, music, computer education, library skills, physical education, health and family life and world languages.

The Reading-Fleming Intermediate School houses the district's fifth and sixth grade population.

For grades 7-8, J.P. Case Middle School is organized as a house plan with academic teams at each grade level. This supports the small school atmosphere while providing various course options. Each team of students is taught the academic subjects by a corresponding team of teachers who meet regularly to monitor student progress and plan instructional programs. Academic subjects include reading, language arts, math, science, and social studies. An expanded related arts curriculum includes instruction in world languages, home economics and material processing, as well as art, music, computer education, library skills, physical education, and health and family life.
