Freehold Regional High School District

Summary:

The Freehold Regional High School District in New Jersey comprises six high schools serving grades 9-12: Howell High School, Freehold Township High School, Marlboro High School, Manalapan High School, Colts Neck High School, and Freehold Borough High School. The district is known for its diverse student population and strong academic performance, with several schools standing out as top performers in the region.

Among the standout schools, Marlboro High School ranks 110th out of 434 New Jersey high schools and consistently earns a 4-out-of-5-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school excels in math, with over 80% proficiency in Algebra I, Geometry, and Algebra II, and has the lowest percentage of free/reduced lunch recipients at 7%. Colts Neck High School is another top performer, ranking 119th in the state and also earning a 4-star rating, with 100% proficiency in Algebra II.

While the district as a whole maintains a high four-year graduation rate of 91.3% and a low dropout rate of 1.0%, chronic absenteeism remains a concern across all six schools, with a rate of 14.9%. The schools also exhibit a range of academic performance, with Marlboro and Colts Neck High Schools leading the way, and Freehold Borough High School standing out for its strong Algebra II proficiency. The district's consistent funding and resource allocation, as well as its focus on student success, are commendable, but addressing chronic absenteeism and understanding the unique challenges faced by each school could lead to further improvements in academic outcomes.
