Neptune school board invests a lot of money in infrastructure, and the physical school is as nice as you'd find anywhere. Probably the nicest aquatic center in NJ. The money however would be better spent on student counselling programs, social work, job placement and vocational programs. It's disappointing that an expensive school system is not yielding better opportunities for the children and the community.

It’s my Last year currently at this school. It’s not the best, especially in this generation. It’s dirty, the people are rude and toxic, but the teachers are fine. They do their jobs, and that’s kinda it. the 8th grade guidance counselor (as of June 2024) is really nice and understanding. The staff is amazing, and they do all they can to keep people in check. At a student standpoint, the security guards are funny and always chill as long as you do what you need to. There are better schools in the area, but this one is the most accessible option.

Way too much homework. This is a school and a district that cares more about the testing scores and their tenure then acting teaching and helping children tearn. It's a reallty sad commentary that the homwork load is excessive to the point of abuse. My children used to love school and learning, now they hate school and are burned out from hours of homework every night, holiday, weekend and vaction time. The emphasis is on the (NJ ASK) testing and NOT on learning or the well-being of the child. There is no time for my children to explore non-school interests and there is little care on this impact on an entire generation of school children. The school administrators and the teachers are concerned only with potecting their jobs and appearances (testing results). What happened to school being about the students?
