The Manasquan Public Schools is a comprehensive community public school district that serves students from kindergarten through twelfth grade from Manasquan, in Monmouth County, in the U.S. state of New Jersey.[1]
As of the 2022–23 school year, the district, comprised of two schools, had an enrollment of 1,470 students and 146.4 classroom teachers (on an FTE basis), for a student–teacher ratio of 10.0:1.[2]
The district is classified by the New Jersey Department of Education as being in District Factor Group "GH", the third-highest of eight groupings. District Factor Groups organize districts statewide to allow comparison by common socioeconomic characteristics of the local districts. From lowest socioeconomic status to highest, the categories are A, B, CD, DE, FG, GH, I and J.[3]
In addition to students from Manasquan, the district's high school also serves public school students from Avon-by-the-Sea, Belmar, Brielle, Lake Como, Sea Girt, Spring Lake, and Spring Lake Heights, who attend Manasquan High School as part of sending/receiving relationships with their respective districts.[4] [5] [6]
The two Manasquan public school buildings are across from each other on Broad Street, with board of education offices next door to the high school.

The district's board of education, comprised of nine members, sets policy and oversees the fiscal and educational operation of the district through its administration. As a Type II school district, the board's trustees are elected directly by voters to serve three-year terms of office on a staggered basis, with three seats up for election each year held (since 2012) as part of the November general election. The board appoints a superintendent to oversee the district's day-to-day operations and a business administrator to supervise the business functions of the district.[18] [19] The sending districts of Belmar, Brielle and Sea Girt each appoint representatives to serve on the Manasquan school board who are eligible to vote on matters related to the high school.[5] [20] [21]
