Highlands Borough School District

Located at 360 Navesink Avenue in Highlands, New Jersey, the Highlands Borough School District is a regular, non-charter public education system set within a large suburban community in the broader New York-Newark-Jersey City metropolitan area. According to federal reporting context for the 2024–2025 school year, the district is officially designated as closed and maintains zero operational schools. Situated in eastern Monmouth County, the district historically functioned as a localized public school entity serving elementary-aged children in the coastal borough community before ceasing active school operations.

During its recorded operating period, the district served a student body of 169 children ranging from pre-kindergarten through the 6th grade, in addition to specialized ungraded enrollment. The student population was balanced between 86 male and 83 female students, with a demographic composition comprising 128 White students, 31 Hispanic students, seven students of two or more races, and three Black students. Because the district no longer maintains active instructional staff or operating school facilities, parents, families, and educational researchers analyzing local school options should contact the New Jersey Department of Education or neighboring municipal districts regarding current student placement protocols and historical records.
