The Mine Hill School District is a community public school district that serves students in pre-kindergarten through sixth grade from Mine Hill Township, in Morris County, in the U.S. state of New Jersey.[3][4][5]
As of the 2023–24 school year, the district, comprised of one school, had an enrollment of 371 students and 33.0 classroom teachers (on an FTE basis), for a student–teacher ratio of 11.2:1.[1]
The district participates in the Interdistrict Public School Choice Program, which allows non-resident students to attend school in the district at no cost to their parents, with tuition covered by the resident district.[6] Available slots are announced annually by grade.[7]
The district had been classified by the New Jersey Department of Education as being in District Factor Group "FG", the fourth-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.[8]
For seventh through twelfth grades, public school students attend the schools of the Dover School District in Dover as part of a sending/receiving relationship.[9] The district also serves students from Victory Gardens, which has been fully consolidated into the Dover School District since 2010.[10][11] The high school was recognized with the National Blue Ribbon School Award in 2013.[12] Schools in the Dover School District attended by Mine Hill students (with 2023–24 enrollment from the National Center for Education Statistics[13]) are Dover Middle School[14] with 483 students in grade 7–8 and Dover High School[15] with 1,176 students in grades 9–12.[16]
During the 1991–92 school year, Canfield Avenue School was recognized with the National Blue Ribbon Award from the United States Department of Education, the highest honor that an American school can achieve.[17]
