“Bergen
County's Education and School System is one of the
main
reasons families relocate to Bergen County.”
Bergen County Schools
Families choose Bergen
County for the terrific schools, which are nationally recognized for
their excellence. Known for rigorous academics, committed and
talented teachers, and a low student-to-teacher ratio that encourages
individualized attention, the schools make this county a favorite
for parents who put their children’s future first.
Bergen County offers 45 public schools and 23 private and religious
schools that serve students in the primary, middle and high school
years. Honors courses, advanced placement, gifted and talented
programs, and a wealth of athletic and extracurricular activities
are offered.
Seven of Bergen County’s high schools rank among the top
20 in the state, more than any other county, according to a biennial
survey published by New Jersey Monthly magazine in 2008. The
rigorous overall preparation helps students achieve the credentials
they need, such as competitive SAT scores, to gain admission
to the colleges of their dreams, including the Ivy League.
