Clearview Regional High School District is a regional public school district serving students in seventh through twelfth grades from the constituent districts of Harrison Township and Mantua Township, two communities in Gloucester County, New Jersey, United States.[3][4][5]

As of the 2017-18 school year, the district, comprising two schools, had an enrollment of 2,337 students and 172.2 classroom teachers (on an FTE basis), for a student–teacher ratio of 13.6:1.[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.[6]

History

Desilets v. Clearview Regional Board of Education, was a case involving the district in which the New Jersey Supreme Court ruled in 1994 that a curricular student newspaper has a lower standard of protection under the First Amendment based on the educational mission of the school.[7]

Schools

Schools in the district (with 2017-18 enrollment data from the National Center for Education Statistics[8]) are:[9]

  • Clearview Regional Middle School[10] with 828 students in grades 7 and 8
    • Pete DeFeo, Principal[11]
    • Kate Bourquin, Assistant Principal[11]

Administration

Core members of the district's administration are:[14]

  • John Horchak III, Superintendent[15]
  • Esther R. Pennell, Business Administrator / Board Secretary[16]

The district's board of education has nine members who set policy and oversee the fiscal and educational operation of the district through its administration. As a Type II school district, the board's trustees are elected directly by voters to serve three-year terms of office on a staggered basis, with three seats up for election each year held (since 2012) as part of the November general election.[17][18][19] Seats on the nine-member board are allocated based on population, with five seats assigned to Mantua and four to Harrison Township.[20]
