The Manalapan-Englishtown Regional School District is a regional public school district serving students in Kindergarten through eighth grade from the suburban communities of Englishtown and Manalapan Township in Monmouth County, New Jersey, United States. Manalapan and Englishtown formally joined together as a regional elementary school district in 1963, with an initial enrollment of 1,140 students.[3]

As of the 2011-12 school year, the district's eight schools had an enrollment of 5,161 students and 395.2 classroom teachers (on an FTE basis), for a student–teacher ratio of 13.06:1.[1]

The district is classified by the New Jersey Department of Education as being in District Factor Group "GH", the third-highest of eight groupings. District Factor Groups organize districts statewide to allow comparison by common socioeconomic characteristics of the local districts. From lowest socioeconomic status to highest, the categories are A, B, CD, DE, FG, GH, I and J.[4]

Students from the two communities in public school for ninth through twelfth grades attend either Manalapan High School or Freehold Township High School, as part of the Freehold Regional High School District.[5][6] The Freehold Regional High School District also serves students from Colts Neck Township, Farmingdale, Freehold Borough, Freehold Township, Howell Township and Marlboro Township.[7]

In the news

Starting September 12, 2006, the approximately 1,400 students of Manalapan-Englishtown Middle School had to learn in the elementary and intermediate schools as the district's middle school building was not yet ready for use. Inspections had identified between 100 and 300 code violations, and the school could not be granted a certificate of occupancy. While the building was being completed, students attended school on the school's four-hour day schedule in cafeterias, gymnasiums, auditoriums, and empty classrooms in the elementary and intermediate schools.[19] As of September 25, 2006, students resumed a full day schedule at the Manalapan-Englishtown Middle School.[20]
