Northern New Jersey public schools are ranked as some of the best in the state and country. For families with school-age children, often the neighborhood and home search are secondary to identifying the best school. With that in mind, the Victoria Carter Team has compiled helpful New Jersey school information including a table listing public schools by town and grade. We also provide links to the individual school website pages so you can get the most up-to-date information on academic programs, extracurricular activities, and athletic teams.
The members of the Victoria Carter team live in the towns that we cover and many of us have children that attend the schools. If you are interested in learning more about any of the schools in northern New Jersey, call Victoria on (973) 220-3050 or email: victoria@victoriacarter.com
