GreatSchools Rating
Parent Rating Average
The school is definitely above the average school in the country. This comes not only from the people that work there but also from the community. The kids are well behaved, bad behaviors are consistently discouraged, teachers and students use modern technology, the classrooms are well supplied, the love for reading is promoted, parents are always welcome to volunteer, teachers greet every student in the morning and welcome them in the building. Every parent has different expectations from the educational institution and one can always find negatives. This school, although not perfect, has many more good points than bad.

"A great town for families, CNN/Money Magazine recently named Berkeley Heights as #6 in the "Best Places to Live in the United States - Best Small Towns." The criteria for evaluation focused on smaller places that offered the best combination of economic opportunity, good schools, safe streets, things to do and a real sense of community. New York City is just a train ride away and the town has easy access to 78 and the GSP. "
