North Brunswick Township High School - Property and Facilities

Property and Facilities

NBTHS is located on a sprawling 10-acre (40,000 m2) property off of U.S. Route 130 South. The school was first built in 1973 to accommodate the growing student population (which, at the time, attended New Brunswick High School). The school, at the time an architectural marvel, was nicknamed by students from neighboring schools as the “Country Club” in its early years. Due to the growing population of students in North Brunswick, the school has undergone two expansions in 1990 and 2004-2006. During the latter renovation project, it was discovered that the land under the high school had served as a garbage dump prior to the construction of the building. This was a chief cause in the delays of the construction project. Another major cause for delay was multiple budgetary issues that required a public vote by township citizens. Apart from standard classrooms, the school has a fully equipped library, six electronic classrooms, several computer labs with both Microsoft Windows and Macintosh computers, industrial technological rooms, naturally lit art studios, a photography studio with a Darkroom, three gymnasiums, two music rooms, an auditorium with an orchestra pit, television production studios, and a commons area that serves as a link between the school and outside community.
