The school operates independently of the local school district under a charter granted by the New Jersey Department of Education.

As of the 2018–19 school year, the school had an enrollment of 366 students and 39.0 classroom teachers (on an FTE basis), for a student–teacher ratio of 9.4:1. There were 241 students (65.8% of enrollment) eligible for free lunch and 35 (9.6% of students) eligible for reduced-cost lunch.[1]
