The best part of going to Ocean Township High School is the awesome feeling when you ace a test or when you're hanging out with friends at lunch. Plus, getting involved in sports or clubs is a blast.

Overall my experience with the Township of Ocean High School has been very good. The students have many opportunities to explore interests. However, if the student hasn't selected a career to pursue by their sophomore year they don't have any opportunities to do so later on.

The high school is run very well and the teachers are very understanding of the students. They help us out whether it's with grades or what is going on in our lives. The school also holds a bunch of events so the students can have fun year long. There are lots of clubs and sports so everyone's interests can be used.

Dr. Stefankiewicz is a terrible leader, he too is inept at handling any crisis or conversation.

Administration has no passion for students and brushes off legitimate situations and victim blames- no real justice is served even with undeniable proof is served (this goe...
