The Burlington Township School District is a comprehensive community public school district that serves students in pre-kindergarten through twelfth grade from Burlington Township, in Burlington County, New Jersey, United States.

As of the 2014-15 school year, the district and its four schools had an enrollment of 4,060 students and 314.4 classroom teachers (on an FTE basis), for a student–teacher ratio of 12.9:1.[1]

The district is 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.[2]

Controversy

The Burlington Township School District received publicity in 2009 after a video posted on YouTube by a parent without school approval showed more than a dozen children at B. Bernice Young Elementary School singing a song praising President Barack Obama, which Conservative groups cited as a means of indoctrinating students to support the President. At the conclusion of the song, the children pump their fists and chant "hip, hip, hooray!" The song had been performed in conjunction with Black History Month activities and when the author of the book I Am Barack Obama visited the school the next month[3][4]
