History

Manasquan High School opened at its current site in 1931.[1]

Students from Wall Township, New Jersey had attended the school until Wall High School opened in September 1959 for grades 7-11, while students in twelfth grade that year attended Manasquan High School. The Manasquan district ended the sending/receiving relationship with Wall in 1957, due to overcrowding at the Manasquan school, which went into effect when the new Wall High School was opened.[8][9]

Manasquan High School had been accredited by the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Elementary and Secondary Schools from 1935[10] until 2011, when the school's accreditation status was removed.[11]

Awards, recognition and rankings

The school was the 143rd-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.[12] The school had been ranked 145th in the state of 328 schools in 2012, after being ranked 124th in 2010 out of 322 schools listed.[13] The magazine ranked the school 115th in 2008 out of 316 schools.[14] The school was ranked 108th in the magazine's September 2006 issue, which surveyed 316 schools across the state.[15] Schooldigger.com ranked the school tied for 58th out of 381 public high schools statewide in its 2011 rankings (an increase of 3 positions from the 2010 ranking) which were based on the combined percentage of students classified as proficient or above proficient on the mathematics (91.8%) and language arts literacy (96.3%) components of the High School Proficiency Assessment (HSPA).[16]
