Summary

South Hunterdon Regional High School is a public high school serving grades 7-12 in Lambertville, New Jersey, with a student population of 392. While the school's statewide ranking has fluctuated in recent years, it currently stands at 277th out of 434 New Jersey high schools for the 2024-2025 school year.

One of the key areas where South Hunterdon Regional High School faces challenges is in academic performance, particularly in mathematics. The school's test scores in this subject are significantly lower than the state averages and the scores of nearby high-performing schools like Montgomery High School and Hopewell Valley Central High School. Additionally, the school's graduation rate, which has ranged from 86.4% to 97.2% over the past few years, is generally lower than the nearby high-performing schools, and its dropout rate is higher.

Another area of concern is the school's relatively high chronic absenteeism rate, ranging from 14.9% to 19.5% over the past few years, which is higher than the rates of the nearby high-performing schools. Furthermore, South Hunterdon Regional School District has a higher percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds compared to the nearby districts, which may be a contributing factor to the school's performance challenges.
