Other than Ho-Ho-Kus, do you know of any other areas in N. Jersey that have a K-8 school?

Thank you.

Are you looking for one building that houses all nine grades, or a district that only has K-8 and then sends kids to a regional High school?

The town of Bedminster has their own K-8 school, after which public school kids go on to Somerset Hills Regional High School in Bernardsville.

Green Brook has the Irene E. Feldkirchner Elementary School and the Green Brook Middle School, after which kids go on to Watchung Hills Regional High, which is located in Warren.

I'm sure there are others, but those two are in my local area and come to mind immediately.

Green Hills school in Green Twp is k-8. I think there are others in Sussex Cty. My kids went to Green Hills. I loved the k-8 model.

Thanks for the replies. I am interested in schools that house k-8 on one campus or in one building.

New Vernon has a well regarded K-8 school and is a sending district for Madison HS.

Alpine also has a K-8 school system and sends their kids to Tenafly for HS.

Mine Hill may also be of interest, although their school is K-6, it received the Blue Ribbon award from the US Dept of Education. It is certainly a more affordable option than my other two mentioned towns. (the down side is that Mine Hill sends their kids to Dover HS, which is not so highly regarded.)

Where are you looking to live? I understand your dilemma, I am NOT a fan of the Jr/Sr High School, 11 yr olds and 19 yr olds have no business being in the same school together....

I know Rutherford, Lyndhurst, and Nutley NJ do.

Alpine, Harrington Park, Norwood, and Haworth each have k-8 in one building.
