The Wood-Ridge School District is a comprehensive community public school district serving students in pre-kindergarten through twelfth grade from Wood-Ridge in Bergen County, in the U.S. state of New Jersey.[3]

As of the 2024–25 school year, the district, comprised of three schools, had an enrollment of 1,341 students and 105.4 classroom teachers (on an FTE basis), for a student–teacher ratio of 12.7:1.[1]

For ninth through twelfth grades, students from Moonachie attend Wood-Ridge High School, as part of a sending/receiving relationship with the Moonachie School District.[4][5][6]

History

[edit]

With the opening of Wood-Ridge Intermediate School in September 2013 for grades 4–6, Doyle Elementary School was realigned to serve students through third grade, while the students in grades 7 and 8 who had attended Gretta R. Ostrovsky Middle School began attending Wood-Ridge Junior / Senior High School.[7]

The district had been classified by the New Jersey Department of Education as being in District Factor Group "FG", the fourth-highest of eight groupings. District Factor Groups organize districts statewide to allow comparison by common socioeconomic characteristics of the local districts. From lowest socioeconomic status to highest, the categories are A, B, CD, DE, FG, GH, I and J.[8]

[edit]

Schools in the district (with 2024–25 enrollment data from the National Center for Education Statistics[9]) are:[10][11]

  • Anthony Albro, superintendent of schools[20]
  • Keith Lisa, business administrator and board secretary[21]

Board of education

[edit]

The district's board of education, composed of five members, sets policy and oversees the fiscal and educational operation of the district through its administration. As a Type II school district, the board's trustees are elected directly by voters to serve three-year terms of office on a staggered basis, with either one or two seats up for election each year held (since 2014) as part of the November general election. The board appoints a superintendent to oversee the district's day-to-day operations and a business administrator to supervise the business functions of the district.[22][23] A sixth trustee is appointed by the Moonachie School District to represent its interests on the Wood-Ridge board.[18]
