History

edit

Prior to the establishment of the regional high school, students from Branchville, Frankford Township and Lafayette Township had attended Newton High School as part of sending/receiving relationships, while those from Sussex and Wantage Township had attended Sussex High School.[14][15][16]

Created in 1963 as a district, the school opened in September 1966.[17]

Starting in September 2014, high school students from Montague Township School District began attending High Point Regional High School, as part of a sending/receiving relationship under which incoming ninth graders began attending the High Point district while existing students attended Port Jervis High School in Port Jervis, New York until they graduated.[18]

The Montague district began seeking to annul the relationship with High Point Regional and resume sending students to Port Jervis.[19] The Montague district chose to switch back to Port Jervis because Port Jervis offered a lower tuition than High Point; High Point charged $16,368 per student to Montague. All six members of the Montague district voted, in October 2019, to switch back to Port Jervis. The High Point district sought to block this request on the grounds it and its students would be financially impacted. The Montague district stated that the districts signed an agreement in 2018 that would allow Montague to leave at will.[20] By December 2020, the districts were in a legal dispute.[21] The High Point agreement is scheduled to end in 2024.[22]

The Montague district began seeking to annul the relationship with High Point Regional and resume sending students to Port Jervis. In February 2018 all seven members of the Montague board approved a symbolic resolution to not renew its ties with High Point. Eric Obernauer of the New Jersey Herald stated that the Montague-High Point relationship was "frosty" and "icy".[23] The Montague district chose to switch back to Port Jervis because Port Jervis offered a lower tuition than High Point; High Point charged $16,368 per student to Montague.

By 2021 the new Montague board sought to dismiss lawsuits against High Point. Obernauer stated "dissatisfaction with how the Montague district is being run and legal fees spent trying to resume the longstanding relationship with Port Jervis, coupled with a growing acceptance of the High Point relationship, appear to have changed public sentiment."[25]

Awards, recognition and rankings

edit

For the 1997–98 school year, High Point Regional High School received the National Blue Ribbon Award from the United States Department of Education, the highest honor that an American school can achieve.[26]

The school was the 142nd-ranked public high school in New Jersey out of 339 schools statewide in New Jersey Monthly magazine's September 2014 cover story on the state's "Top Public High Schools", using a new ranking methodology.[27] The school had been ranked 88th in the state of 328 schools in 2012, after being ranked 125th in 2010 out of 322 schools listed.[28] The magazine ranked the school 157th in 2008 out of 316 schools.[29] The school was ranked 151st in the magazine's September 2006 issue, which surveyed 316 schools across the state.[30] The school was recently ranked first of 53 schools in the state in the "DE" District Factor Group by The Star-Ledger and second in the DFG by New Jersey Monthly magazine.

Schooldigger.com ranked the school 124th out of 389 public high schools statewide in its 2012 rankings (an increase of 7 positions from the 2011 rank) which were based on the combined percentage of students classified as proficient or above proficient on the mathematics (88.6%) and language arts literacy (95.2%) components of the High School Proficiency Assessment (HSPA).[31]

From the New Jersey Department of Education's "Violence, Vandalism, and Substance Abuse in the Schools" report for 2012–2013, Patch released a list of the "9 Most Violent School Districts in New Jersey", with High Point Regional High School ranking number 5, preceded by Camden County Vocational School.[32] These numbers brought much surprise to both students and parents in the district, considering the school's strong efforts to combat bullying with the "Students Against Being Bullied" organization founded by one of High Point's own students.

edit

The graduating class of 2011 had SAT scores on par with state and national averages, including an average SAT Critical Reading score of 498 (compared to state and national averages of 495 and 501, respectively), an average Math score of 520 (compared to state and national averages of 514 and 516, respectively), and an average Writing score of 500 (compared to state and national averages of 497 and 492, respectively).[33]

The school participates as the host school / lead agency for joint ice hockey, boys lacrosse and boys / girls swimming teams with Wallkill Valley Regional High School. These co-op programs operate under agreements scheduled to expire at the end of the 2023–24 school year.[43][44]

The wrestling team won the North I Group III state sectional championship in 1986–1997, 2001–2003, 2005–2008, 2010 and 2011, and the North II Group II title in 2012-2014 and 2017–2020.

In 2009, the wrestling team was ruled ineligible to participate in the NJSIAA state tournament, as 65% of its matches had been against teams from New Jersey schools, less than the required 70% threshold.[47] High Point captured its first back-to-back Group II championship wins in 2013 and 2014. High Point found themselves down 21-6 after seven bouts in 2013 against Long Branch High School and won the title with a four-bout pinning spree before holding on to win by a 33-30 margin.[48] The 2014 team defeated Hanover Park High School with four consecutive pins to win the Group II title, after trailing 33–10 with four bouts left in the match.[49]

The field hockey team won the North I Group III state sectional title in 1988, 1996, 1997, 2000 and 2002; the team won the Group III state championship in 1988, defeating Red Bank Regional High School in the championship game.[50] The team won the North I Group III sectional title in 2002 with a 4–0 shutout against West Morris Central High School in the tournament final.[51]

The softball team won the Group III state championship in 2012 (defeating runner-up Kingsway Regional High School in the finals) and in Group II in 2014 (vs. Robbinsville High School)[52] In 2012, the softball team defeated Kingsway Regional High School to win the Group III state championship by a score of 1–0 in 11 innings.[53] The 2014 team finished with a record of 28-2 after winning the Group II title with a 2–1 win against Robbinsville in the championship game.[54]

Arts

edit

High Point offers a variety of different classes that are involved in the arts, including but not limited to: Choral, Concert Choir, Concert Band, Piano Lab, and Theatre. Each class offers different levels, depending on how many years the student has been enrolled in that particular class. These classes present their findings of the course through concerts, which are open to the public twice a year, once in the Winter and again in the Spring. This department also offers extra curricular activities such as: Chambers Choir, Fall Dramas, Spring Musicals, and Marching Band. The Marching Band as well as the Chambers Choir has been known to compete in several different competitions.
