OFFICE OF EDUCATIONAL SERVICES DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTIONS

Headquartered on Whittlesey Road in Trenton, New Jersey, the Office of Educational Services Department of Corrections is an active, state-operated educational agency serving the broader Trenton-Princeton metropolitan area. Situated within a large suburban community setting, this unique, non-charter public district is dedicated to delivering specialized secondary education for high school students in grades 9 through 12. Operating across seven distinct facility schools, the district maintains an institutional framework designed to offer high school coursework and educational programming to help students meet state academic standards.

During the current academic year, the district serves a total enrollment of 61 students across its high school grade levels, with the largest concentration in the 9th grade (24 students) and 10th grade (20 students), followed by 11th grade (12 students) and 12th grade (5 students). The student body is predominantly male and culturally diverse, comprising 40 Black students, 19 Hispanic students, and 2 White students. In the context of district-level staffing, standard reported metrics list zero direct full-time equivalent (FTE) teachers or support personnel, reflecting a centralized administrative model typical of state correctional education systems where instructional staffing is coordinated directly through specialized agency oversight.
