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.

My sister and I both attended Raritan for all four years of high school. They have a plethora of AP and Honor classes. They have many elective classes as well to help decide what you want to pursue or just learn something new. The administration is nice and helpful.

I believe that the attitude and enthusiasm between he students and staff ae what really shape a high school. In Raritan high school, The teachers are very willing to work with you and provide assistance with almost anything you ask them. As for the students, we have a lot of school spirit especially when it comes to sports games. The students we select to lead our extracurricular programs help to bring us all together.

My cousins went to Raritan and graduated prepared for college and entrepreneurial savvy. One is in law school and one a business owner. I have no doubt my Hazlet kids will do great there. You have to be an involved parent and an even more involved student who applies themselves.

Very good. The course offerings can be very demanding depending on which track your child follows. They offer dual enrollment at the high school and community college level. Meaning a child can graduate from high school with an associates degree from our community college. A huge savings for familie...

This school was a joke, and still continues to be one. I graduated from it in 2012. All everyone wants to do is fight each other, the teachers see bullying going on and they do absolutely nothing about it, yet they say that they are so strict with bullying. My younger brother goes to school here now...
