BrownAthletics conference Tri-County Conference Mascot Colts Cumberland Regional High School is a comprehensive regional public high school and school district, serving students in grades 9 through 12 from seven communities in Cumberland County, New Jersey, United States. The district serves students from Deerfield Township, Fairfield Township, Greenwich Township, Hopewell Township, Shiloh Borough, Stow Creek Township and Upper Deerfield Township and encompasses 162 square miles.[3]
As of the 2009-10 school year, the district's one school had an enrollment of 1,313 students and 100 classroom teachers (on an FTE basis), for a student–teacher ratio of 13.13.[1]
The school was the 291st-ranked public high school in New Jersey out of 322 schools statewide, in New Jersey Monthly magazine's September 2010 cover story on the state's "Top Public High Schools", after being ranked 279th in 2008 out of 316 schools.[4] The school was ranked 282nd in the magazine's September 2006 issue, which surveyed 316 schools across the state.[5]
The district participates in the Interdistrict Public School Choice Program, which allows non-resident students to attend the district's school without cost to their parents, with tuition covered by the State of New Jersey.[6] Available slots are announced annually by grade.
The district is classified by the New Jersey Department of Education as being in District Factor Group "B", the second lowest of eight groupings. District Factor Groups organize districts statewide to allow comparison by common socioeconomic characteristics of the local districts. From lowest socioeconomic status to highest, the categories are A, B, CD, DE, FG, GH, I and J.[7]
On December 10, 1974, the county superintendent of education designated members of the initial school board, which by law consists of nine members. Each constituent district was allowed one representative, with the two largest districts receiving an extra representative each. The district was formed to help with overcrowding issues at Bridgeton High School, which, at the time, all seven districts sent their 9th through 12th grade students.
