Welcome to the Jefferson Township Public Schools’ web site.  Our schools serve the communities of Lake Hopatcong, Lake Shawnee, Oak Ridge, and Milton by providing a quality pre-K – 12 education program to more than 3,600 students who attend our eight schools.

Our philosophy focuses on our students, and it guides all that we do.  We believe all students must be held to the highest standards for academic, social, and ethical behavior.  We want our students to be motivated to learn as well as to be self-assured and confident individuals who graduate from the district ready to apply their skills and knowledge as productive citizens in an ever-changing world.  Our administrators and teachers are facilitators of learning who work cooperatively with their students while providing necessary support to them.  Our diverse curriculum includes a variety of opportunities which promote student learning.
