"Largest athletic program in SJersey and head football coach won't go the extra yard to help a player get to the next level. Needs to take a page from Timber Creek and Woodbury. Title of Head football coach comes with personal responsibility, but Instead this coach turns his back and feels he owes his kids nothing which is exactly what he gives them. Parents of talented young football players better explore all options before intrusting your son to this program! Where are your NCAA DI players? On the sidelines or flunking out and being ignored."

"The Principal, Joseph Bollendorf is actively involved and interacts on a personal level with the student body gaining their respect and loyalty. During his tenure he has exponentially increased the student scholarships through his solicitation of local businesses, clubs and scholarship funds. He instills a sense of pride within the student body to the point that they refer to their school simply as "Township". TWP, "Together With Pride". The academic resources, activities, clubs, sports and music program are all there for the taking. The only prerequisite is that the students choose to engage and get involved themselves to take advantage and make the most of their time to really benefit from being a TWP alumnus. This is where you the parent and your child must take responsibilty yourselves to proactively make most of the time spent here to ensure a bright future."

"Great school as long as your kid doesnt need any special attention academically. If they are an honors student they should have no problems. If they need anything extra by way of support academically they wont get it here. The politics within the sports program is the most disgusting thing ive ever seen. So blatant that they favor much less talented kids whos parents are affiliated with the school. Shameful TWP!!!!"

"School sports are run by politics. If you are not well connected your child will not play sports here no matter how talented he is. Sad. My child is an honor roll student and excels at baseball, but we are transferring him to GCIT so he can have the opportunity to play sports."

"LArge school with a lot to offer kids. Great teachers and a great Ap program. Teachers care about the kids and the school system in Washington Township gets parents involved. Kids are encouraged to become involved in the community. My Daughter loves the High School and has done well in and out of the classroom. With a tough workload and plenty of activity after school she is kept busy, too busy to find herself bored. She has scored well on all placement tests. Like anything, if the parents are invovled and the students are responsible thay can excel!"
