Mater Dei High School (New Jersey)

Mater Dei Prep: A Catholic Preparatory School (commonly known as "Mater Dei High School") is a four-year Catholic coeducational high school serving students in ninth through twelfth grades, located in the New Monmouth section of Middletown Township, in Monmouth County, New Jersey, United States. Mater Dei is no longer part of St. Mary Parish and operates under the supervision of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Trenton. The school is accredited by the Middle State Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Elementary and Secondary Schools and is a member of the National Catholic Educational Association (NCEA). In February 2015, the pastor of St. Mary Parish announced that the school would be closing at the end of the 2014-15 school year, in the wake of chronic fiscal deficits. A few days after the announcement, it was disclosed that the Parish Finance Council had agreed to a two-month extension in order to raise the $1 million needed to remain open. Through the Seraph's Fund, and massive efforts by the student body, $1.5 million was raised in just six weeks, and the school managed to stay open.As of the 2019–20 school year, the school had an enrollment of 316 students and 28.9 classroom teachers (on an FTE basis), for a student–teacher ratio of 10.9:1. The school's student body was 76.9% (243) White, 12.7% (40) Black, 5.7% (18) Hispanic and 4.7% (15) Asian.On May 9, 2022, it was announced that the school would be closing at the end of the school year due to a dramatic decline in enrollment.

New School High School of Monmouth County

New School High School of Monmouth County (NSHS) was a high school in the Monmouth County area of New Jersey that opened in 1998, notable for its style of alternative education until its closure in 2004. The New School of Monmouth County High School Founded by former public school teacher Dale Thompson and the daughter of one of the founders of the original New School elementary school, Rebekah Chilvers, the New School High School marked a radical departure from traditional educational philosophy. The New School tenets were drawn from a variety of British alternative teaching practice known as "open-classroom." Rather than relying on tests and grades to measure student progress, the New School High School or NSHS abolished these practices and instead centered on individualized learning centered on all-encompassing yearly themes. Work completed during the course of the year was collected in a portfolio, which served as an alternative method of measuring student's achievements (rather than using grades). The NSHS also had rather lax policies, compared to traditional public schools, in such areas as scheduling, dress codes, etc. However, the NSHS never grew to a particularly large size. After a peak in enrollment in the 2001–2002 school year, the size of the student body began declining. The replacement of Dale's Thompson's co-teacher twice also caused some difficulty for the school. In 2003, the NSHS's name was changed to the Atlantic School. The Atlantic School was short lived. In June 2004, the last graduates were promoted and the school itself shut down.
