Summary

Montville Township High School serves 1,035 students in grades 9–12 in Montville, New Jersey. SchoolDigger gives the school four stars and ranks it 66th of 434 New Jersey high schools, at the 85th percentile. Its clearest academic standout is Geometry: proficiency was 91% in both end-of-course and ninth-grade results, ranking second among eight nearby schools with reported scores.

Results are strong in some math tests but less consistent in others. Ninth-grade Algebra I proficiency was 53%, the highest among nearby schools with reported results, compared with 22% statewide and 53% in the Montville Township School District. Algebra I end-of-course proficiency was 50%—above the 40% state result and nearby-school average of 35%, but 19 points below the district’s 69%. Geometry proficiency was 91%, compared with 52% statewide and 92% in the district. Science is a weaker relative result: 11th-grade proficiency was 36%, nearly matching the nearby-school average of 36% and above the state’s 29%, but below five of eight nearby schools.

Science proficiency fell 10 points from 2022–2023 to 2025–2026, narrowing the school’s advantage over the state; ninth-grade Algebra I and Geometry rose over their reported periods. Chronic absenteeism is notably low at 2% in 2024–2025, versus 6% in the district and 14% statewide. Graduation was 90% that year, down 8 points from the prior year and equal to the district. The student-teacher ratio was 9.7 in 2024–2025, and 4% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible that year. SchoolDigger’s statewide ranking for how well the school serves low-socioeconomic-status students is especially low at the 21st percentile, compared with the school’s overall 85th percentile; this group ranking was 85th percentile in 2024–2025.
