Warren Hills Regional School District

What Warren Hills Regional School District does

Warren Hills Regional School District is a public regional school district headquartered in Washington, Warren County, New Jersey, serving students in grades 7-12 from five municipalities under New Jersey state law. The district operates two schools — Warren Hills Regional High School (grades 9-12, 41 Jackson Valley Road) and Warren Hills Regional Middle School (grades 7-8, 64-66 Carlton Avenue) — for residents of Franklin Township, Mansfield Township, Washington Borough, and Washington Township under mandatory send/receive arrangements, plus Oxford Township students on a tuition basis. The district traces its origins to a Washington high school organized in 1894, was later regionalized into the Warren Hills Regional School District, and operates from a 2004-voter-approved middle school upgrade and high school addition (completed 2009) and a 2010 athletic complex.

The district's technology and service platform centers on a 1:1 Chromebook program (all grades, home take-home since 2019-2020) layered over a Genesis Student Information System, Finalsite Messages XR mass notifications, ClassLink single sign-on, dual Google Workspace for Education / Microsoft 365 access, NutriSLICE menu publishing, Sora digital library, Frontline IEP/AESOP, and Operations Hero for facility work orders. Student safety is delivered through Linewize Monitor (self-harm detection with Warren County law enforcement escalation) and Qustodio parental controls. Special education spans a full continuum of programs (LD, MD, EBD, AU) and community-based learning operates through a partnership with the Family Guidance Center of Warren County's School Based Youth Services Program.

Funding is structurally tax-based: primary revenue comes from local property taxes levied on the four constituent municipalities, New Jersey state aid, federal meal reimbursements, and Oxford Township tuition for high school students. Auxiliary revenue streams include cafeteria sales (PaySchools / Maschio's under the National School Lunch Program) and facility rentals to community organizations at published rates. The district is governed by a nine-member elected Board of Education and led by Superintendent Dr. Nicholas Diaz and Interim Business Administrator Stephen Frost, with 251-500 employees including teachers, administrators, and support staff.

1. Public School Funding (Tax Revenue & State Aid): As a public school district in New Jersey, primary revenue comes from local property taxes levied on constituent municipalities (Franklin Township, Mansfield Township, Washington Borough, Washington Township) and state aid distributed by the NJ Department of Education. Budget documents for fiscal years 2021-2022 through 2026-2027 are publicly posted on the district website.
2. Tuition Revenue (Oxford Township Send/Receive): Oxford Township sends its high school students (grades 9-12) to Warren Hills Regional High School on a tuition basis, generating revenue from another district.
3. Cafeteria / Meal Program: National School Lunch Program. District uses PaySchools for electronic cafeteria accounts. Free and reduced-price meals available through means-tested Meal Benefits Application (including under the NJ Working-Class Families Anti-Hunger Act). Revenue from federal meal reimbursements.
4. Facility Use Rental Fees: District rents facilities (gymnasium, track, fields, rooms) to outside community groups and organizations via a formal Use of Facilities process. Fee chart available publicly. Track open to community members from sunrise to sunset when not in use by students or athletic programs.
