GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Bullying, chaos, government, unions…need I say more. This is not a district that prioritizes students. They can’t.

Holmdel Schools are great but the rating system used by GreatSchools depends on all the students taking part in NJ state tests.

Both of my children went to Holmdel High School. One has graduated and one is still attending. Each of them was thoroughly challenged by the teaching staff as well as other students. I would highly recommend Holmdel High School as well as the rest of the Holmdel School System.

The variety of AP courses offered during my time at HHS helped me skip a full semester at NYU. Some of the teachers and administrators have had such an immeasurable impact not only on my academic career, but on my professional and personal development.
