"I am a 2008 FTHS graduate and a senior at a 4 year college (studying teacher education). I chose to become a teacher because of the amazing experiences I had at FTHS and the teachers that helped me to succeed. During my 4 years at FTHS I did not involve myself in extra-curriculars but I do not feel that that choice hampered myself because upon being accepted to every school I applied for, and choosing one that best suited myself, I found that I had the tools to then become involved as well as the tools I needed to succeed in a college environment. I had applied myself academically during HS which allowed me to enjoy my college experience even more. Overall, I had a wonderful 4 years at FTHS and would love to go back and teach there. Of course, due to my college's requirements and dual-degree teaching program, it may be a while before I can do that!"

"Excellent school. Caring, dedicated involved, teachers. Advanced programs. Part of the Freehold regional learning centers with a learning center on animal and plant sciences. A lot of extra help/tutoring for students both by teachers before, during and after school as well as independent student programs. Good use of technology wrt to keep parents up to date on what's going on in the district, with grades and sports. Late bus services for kids who are involved in extra-curricular activities."

"This high school is the best in the state of NJ. As a senior of the class of 2011, I have to say my education experience here completely blows away my middle school experience which was terrible, and didn't learn much. The teachers here are so nice and become close with a lot of them. They will always help you regardless of the question you may have. The administration here is second to none. The academic standards are very challenging and have to work hard to get those A's. I have learned more here about life then all of the years I've been in school. Everyday is something new, fun and interesting and you always walk away learning something. This is probably the safest school I've been in. This probably all in all is the best school ever. You will not have to regret sending your child here as your child will be PLENTY BUSY with all the rigorous academic work your child will have. This school has clearly prepared me for the rigors of college next year. Thanks FTHS!"

"Being a 2004 Township graduate and 15 yr resident of Freehold Twp. I know the area just as well as I know myself. This is by far amongst the top high schools in the county. Its most recent renovation was complete in the Fall of 2002 and the school is highly advanced and modern. Teachers/Administration are excellent and I still keep in touch with some. Aside from being slightly overcrowded, Freehold Township High School is a wonderful place to be for four years."

"Freehold Township High School offers enormous opportunities and success to its students. Unfortunately the student popuplation is growing and growing which takes away from the learning experience of the student. The teachers, guidance counselors are overwhelmed by the student population. Try making an appointment with your guidance counselor and maybe in three days to a week you get lucky to see him or her. Massive congestion during class passing, sort of like rush hour traffice on Route 9."
