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.

For the most part, I have had a very good experience at Manalapan High School, but there are a couple of areas that are weak. As a student interested in arts, especially visual arts, there are significantly fewer resources and opportunities for me compared to other students, and overall, these areas do not get as much attention from the student body or staff, especially when compared to math/sciences and athletics.

The teachers at the school are amazing and genuinely seem involved and wanting to teach the students. The worst part of the school is the food provided as after COVID the food quality went down. I would like to see the food be changed to something more tasty and nutritious. The new principal is also doing great work for the school as I have noticed my fellow classmates have become more involved after the principals induction.

My daughter graduated there a couple of years ago, in the Science and Engineering program. I've found the school to be well run, teachers are involved and many of them quite passionate, while the S&E program is effective, comprehensive and with a lasting educational impact. A good springboard to top...
