The curriculum and level of competition here is very strong. The athetic, art and music programs are solid. The kids are typically from strong families, and that breeds success. This is a top notch school in an A+ community.

Like any school, NPHS has its warts. However, overall it is a very good school (and school system) that makes the best of its somewhat limited resources. Sure, the curriculum may be limited in some areas and a few of the teachers should have moved on long ago, but overall they a do a very good job. All this negative blather about students inadequately prepared for college is nonsense. The stats don't bear it out. Disgruntled parents, you need to take some responsibility for your children's academic performance and get involved instead of standing in the shadows and pointing fingers!

Wake up parents! New Providence schools are not as great as the BOE and the press would have you believe. The teaching is not visionary.

we have a really good school system with people waiting to get into the town. We have a 100% graduation rate and kids go onto very competative colleges. With only 654 kids it is the next best thing to a private education. like other schools there is room for improvement we need to get our schools system back into the top 10%. I know this can be done. we have some dedicated teachers in NPHS.
