General Info
The Cumberland Regional School District is carved out of the northwest section of Cumberland County, New Jersey. The 162-square-mile district serves students from municipalities including Deerfield Township, Fairfield Township, Greenwich Township, Hopewell Township, Shiloh Borough, Stow Creek Township, and Upper Deerfield Township.
History
On Dec. 10, 1974, the county superintendent appointed the initial school board, which by law consisted of nine members. Each of the seven constituent districts was mandated to have one representative, with an additional member being appointed from each of the districts with the highest proportion of the population.
On May 12, 1976, ground-breaking ceremonies for the new Cumberland Regional High School were held at the Upper Deerfield site. Construction started immediately, and the building was opened on Sept. 7, 1977, with a total enrollment of 1,759 students in grades 9 through 12. The first Cumberland Regional High School commencement was held on June 21, 1978, for 322 members of the Class of 1978.
