Ramapo High School is a comprehensive four-year public high school located in the New York City suburb of Franklin Lakes, in Bergen County, in the U.S. state of New Jersey. The school is a part of the Ramapo Indian Hills Regional High School District, serving students in ninth through twelfth grades from Franklin Lakes, Oakland, and Wyckoff (FLOW). [3] The other high school in the district is Indian Hills High School, located in Oakland. Students in eighth grade in the three sending districts have the opportunity to choose between Ramapo and Indian Hills by February in their graduating year. [4]

Contents

As of the 2023–24 school year, the school had an enrollment of 1,188 students and 117.6 classroom teachers (on an FTE basis), for a student–teacher ratio of 10.1:1. There were 21 students (1.8% of enrollment) eligible for free lunch and 2 (0.2% of students) eligible for reduced-cost lunch. [1]

History

With baby boomers filling the school beyond capacity, the Ramsey Public School District informed its sending districts of Franklin Lakes and Wyckoff in 1954 that it would no longer accept students from those two communities at Ramsey High School beyond the 1956–57 school year. [5] Oakland, which sent its students to Pompton Lakes High School, joined the other two districts in pursuing a joint regional high school. [6]

By a nearly 3–1 margin, voters in the three constituent communities approved a February 1955 referendum that would cover the bulk of the $2.2 million (equivalent to $23.9 million in 2023) required for the 50-acre (20 ha) site and the construction of the school building. [7] A steel strike, bad weather and other construction obstacles delayed the opening of the new school building, forcing Ramapo High School to start the 1956–57 school year with evening sessions held at Eastern Christian High School in North Haledon, with the school day running from 2:45 to 7:00 PM. [8] Constructed with a capacity for 1,080 students, the new almost-finished Ramapo High School building in Franklin Lakes opened in January 1957 with an enrollment of 655. [9] [10]

Awards, recognition and rankings

The school was the 5th-ranked public high school in New Jersey out of 305 schools statewide in New Jersey Monthly magazine's September 2018 cover story on the state's "Top Public High Schools", using a new ranking methodology. [11] The school had been ranked 17th in the state of 328 schools in 2012, after being ranked 19th in 2010 out of 322 schools listed. [12] The magazine ranked the school 23rd in 2008 out of 316 schools. [13] The school was ranked 28th in the magazine's September 2006 issue, which included 316 schools across the state. [14]

Schooldigger.com ranked the school tied for 53rd out of 381 public high schools statewide in its 2011 rankings (a decrease of 11 positions from the 2010 ranking) which were based on the combined percentage of students classified as proficient or above proficient on the mathematics (93.1%) and language arts literacy (96.5%) components of the High School Proficiency Assessment (HSPA). [15]

In the 2011 "Ranking America's High Schools" issue by The Washington Post , the school was ranked 46th in New Jersey and 1,479 nationwide. [16]

University programs

The school, in tandem with Indian Hills High School, offers several special programs similar to college majors, wherein students are accepted into one of the programs and take a series of honors-level courses, in lieu of electives. Ramapo offers a University Program in engineering, which introduces students to the world of Engineering with courses designed to give students a taste of various engineering fields, as well as helping them become familiar with the tools of an engineer, such as AutoCAD. This program is also tied to an extracurricular club, Robotics club, in which members of the engineering program build a robot to compete in a competition with other schools.

Communications and Theatre Arts students take classes together. District superintendent C. Lauren Schoen announced that the Communications and Theater Arts programs are being discontinued from Ramapo.[ citation needed ]
