With a student population of 945, the school is part of the Manasquan School District, which is ranked 145 out of 609 districts in the state and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. Manasquan High School has consistently been ranked among the top high schools in New Jersey, currently holding the 120th spot out of 434 schools for the 2024-2025 school year.

Academically, Manasquan High School excels, outperforming the state average in standardized test scores across various subjects and grade levels. In the 2024-2025 school year, 57.6% of 9th-grade students were proficient or better in NJSLA/English Language Arts, compared to the state average of 49.9%. The school's 9th-grade NJSLA/Algebra II proficiency rate was an impressive 96.3%, significantly higher than the state's 83%. Manasquan High School also performs exceptionally well in terms of its student subgroups, ranking in the top 50 out of 426 New Jersey high schools for both female and male students, as well as its white student population.

When compared to nearby high schools, such as Brick Township High School and Neptune High School, Manasquan High School stands out as a top performer, with higher statewide rankings and better test scores across various subjects. However, the school's relatively low percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, at 10.26% in the 2023-2024 school year, suggests it serves a more affluent student population compared to some of its neighbors.
