Southern Regional High School is a regional public high school located in the Manahawkin section of Stafford Township in Ocean County, New Jersey, United States, serving students in grades 9 - 12 and operating as part of the Southern Regional School District. The school is located on 550 acres (220 ha) of wooded land, upon which future projects are to be completed. The district serves the five municipalities in the Long Beach Island Consolidated School District — Barnegat Light, Harvey Cedars, Long Beach Township, Ship Bottom and Surf City — along with students from Beach Haven and Stafford Township, along with the sending district of Ocean Township.
As of the 2010-11 school year, the school had an enrollment of 2,023 students and 135.0 classroom teachers (on an FTE basis), for a student–teacher ratio of 14.99:1. There were 229 students (11.3% of enrollment) eligible for free lunch and 94 (4.6% of students) eligible for reduced-cost lunch.
Barnegat Township completed its withdrawal from the Southern Regional School District, and by the 2007-08 school year had ninth through twelfth grades attending the new Barnegat High School, which built its own high school in lieu of being a sending district.
