As a former student of Neptune High School, I'm deeply disappointed by the school's ratings. Neptune High School is a great school with faculty that truly care about their students. I'm currently pursuing a career in education, and have yet to find a school in Northern Jersey that compares. Like all other schools it has it's problems, BUT the administration is making every attempt to change the school into a school of 'excellence.' I believe the main issue with the school isn't the school, it's the mentality of the students. They are more focused on fighting that they forget the purpose for them being there is to get an education. Its all stems from the surrounding neighborhood and today's society. It's quite sad because there are a plethora of opportunities available to them that many fail to utilize.

As a former student who has gone on to get a BS,MS, and PhD, as well as post-doctoral research in Cambridge, England, the ratings here don't tell the whole story. This school provided a great foundation for its most academic students. Neptune High School has many superb, skilled teachers and it provided small but focus AP classes. Moreover, it provide a far more broad ranging and rigorous education than any private schools in the region as well as a comparable education to the public schools in the area.

I am currently a student at NHS.It is an okay school but I am not fully satisfied with it.The kids can be mean and they do fight quite a bit.Also,the teachers are rude and they do not know how to handle or teach the kids properly.

Neptune High School is a great school. The teachers are fantastic. There is a vast number of extracurricular activities and sport teams. We are very satisfied with the education that our kids received while at Neptune. An added perk is that construction is just about finished on a complete overhaul of the school. It is now a brand new, state of the art school, even better than before. I would feel very comfortable in recommending this school to anyone anticipating sending their children here.
