As of the 2008-09 school year, the district's two schools had an enrollment of 3,011 students and 237.5 classroom teachers (on an FTE basis), for a student–teacher ratio of 12.7.
The district is classified by the New Jersey Department of Education as being in District Factor Group "I", the second highest of eight groupings.

Famous quotes containing the words north, high, school and/or district:
“We have heard all of our lives how, after the Civil War was over, the South went back to straighten itself out and make a living again. It was for many years a voiceless part of the government. The balance of power moved away from it—to the north and the east. The problems of the north and the east became the big problem of the country and nobody paid much attention to the economic unbalance the South had left as its only choice.”
—Lyndon Baines Johnson (1908–1973)
“As I walked on the glacis I heard the sound of a bagpipe from the soldiers’ dwellings in the rock, and was further soothed and affected by the sight of a soldier’s cat walking up a cleated plank in a high loophole designed for mus-catry, as serene as Wisdom herself, and with a gracefully waving motion of her tail, as if her ways were ways of pleasantness and all her paths were peace.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“You send a boy to school in order to make friends—the right sort.”
—Virginia Woolf (1882–1941)
“Most works of art, like most wines, ought to be consumed in the district of their fabrication.”
—Rebecca West (1892–1983)
