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.

I'm apart of the Gateway Academy which is an academy at my high school which offers priority placement in advanced classes, leadership workshops, community projects, and college tours. This programs helps you grow as a leader and prepare for college. The arts are often overlooked compared to sports and are underfunded.

The teachers really want you to succeed and they are there to make school a fun place for students. Boonton excels in athletics and strive for students by pushing them the right direction after graduation. It's fun healthy environment and they constantly look for ways to improve the school.

Small school, mostly small classes. Diverse community so good cultural mix. Good teachers for most part. Needs more class variety.

Wonderful school, we moved here from Texas for work and I put my son though this system with hesitation. However after getting involved with some of the faculty, I found this school to rival some of the private schools we looked into. I believe the new Superintendent Dr Christine Johnson from Mendha...

I grew up near by, and always thought this school was lower quality until, I my Daughter attended. I must say, it's not at the quality of a private school but better than my high school experience going to Morris Hills. My Daughter is now a Senior and she was accepted to The College of New Jersey.
