North Hunterdon High School

North Hunterdon High School is a four-year regional public high school serving students from six municipalities in northern Hunterdon County, in the U.S. state of New Jersey. It is one of two high schools in the North Hunterdon-Voorhees Regional High School District.

Students from Bethlehem Township, Clinton Township, Franklin Township, Lebanon Borough and Union Township attend North Hunterdon; the school is located in the Annandale section of Clinton Township. Clinton Town and Glen Gardner residents can select either North Hunterdon or Voorhees High.

The school is accredited until January 2030 by the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Elementary and Secondary Schools.

As of the 2024–25 school year, the school had an enrollment of 1,259 students and 116.0 classroom teachers (on an FTE basis), for a student–teacher ratio of 10.9:1. There were 40 students (3.2% of enrollment) eligible for free lunch and 12 (1.0% of students) eligible for reduced-cost lunch.

The school's athletic team name is known as the Lions, and its mascot's name is Reggie, recognizing that the school was known as Regional in the past. In the 1968–69 school year, an actual lion cub was used as a mascot.

In the 1950s, all 11 of the original sending districts voted to pass a referendum for construction of a building that would cost $700,000 (equivalent to $9.4 million in 2025). North Hunterdon Regional High School opened in September 1951 with 517 students in a 27-room facility constructed on a 45-acre (18 ha) site.

G. Clifford Singley was the school's first principal, and the football field was named in his honor in 1972.

In October 1972, voters of High Bridge agreed to place the borough's high school students at North Hunterdon Regional High. High Bridge High School in High Bridge School District closed in 1973. In 1975, Voorhees High opened, relieving North Hunterdon High. Students in the following areas, except for incoming 12th graders (seniors), were reassigned to Voorhees High: Califon, High Bridge, Lebanon Township, and Tewksbury Township.
