Kinnelon High School is a four-year comprehensive community public high school that serves students in ninth through twelfth grades from Kinnelon in Morris County, New Jersey, United States, operating as the lone secondary school of the Kinnelon Public Schools.

As of the 2015-16 school year, the school had an enrollment of 671 students and 63.0 classroom teachers (on an FTE basis), for a student–teacher ratio of 10.7:1. There were 18 students (2.7% of enrollment) eligible for free lunch and 3 (0.4% of students) eligible for reduced-cost lunch.[1] The student body of Kinnelon High School was 89.7% White, 4.3% Asian, 4.3% Hispanic, 0.9% Black, 0.3% Native Hawaiian / Pacific Islander and 0.4% of two or more races.[1]

Awards, recognition and rankings

The school was the 20th-ranked public high school in New Jersey out of 339 schools statewide in New Jersey Monthly magazine's September 2014 cover story on the state's "Top Public High Schools", using a new ranking methodology.[2] The school had been ranked 5th in the state of 328 schools in 2012, after being ranked 21st in 2010 out of 322 schools listed.[3] The magazine ranked the school 34th in the magazine's September 2008 issue, and 35th in the its September 2006 issue, both of which included 316 schools across the state.[4] Schooldigger.com ranked the school tied for 90th out of 381 public high schools statewide in its 2011 rankings (a decrease of 62 positions from the 2010 ranking) which were based on the combined percentage of students classified as proficient or above proficient on the mathematics (87.5%) and language arts literacy (96.5%) components of the High School Proficiency Assessment (HSPA).[5]

In its listing of "America's Best High Schools 2016", the school was ranked 473rd out of 500 best high schools in the country; it was ranked 49th among all high schools in New Jersey and 32nd among the state's non-magnet schools.[6]

In its 2013 report on "America's Best High Schools", The Daily Beast ranked the school 591st in the nation among participating public high schools and 46th among schools in New Jersey.[7]

In the 2011 "Ranking America's High Schools" issue by The Washington Post, the school was ranked 39th in New Jersey and 1,217th nationwide.[8]

Athletics

The Kinnelon High School Colts[9] compete in the Northwest Jersey Athletic Conference, which is made up of public and parochial high schools covering Morris County, Sussex County and Warren County, following a reorganization of sports leagues in Northern New Jersey by the New Jersey State Interscholastic Athletic Association (NJSIAA).[10] With 500 students in grades 10-12, the school was classified by the NJSIAA for the 2015-16 school year as North I, Group II for most athletic competition purposes, which included schools with an enrollment of 495 to 762 students in that grade range.[11] Prior to the 2009-10 realignment, the school had competed in the Colonial Hills Conference.[12]

The boys' tennis team won the Group I state title in 1980.[13]

The girls' soccer team won the Group I state championship in 2006 (against Metuchen High School in the final game of the tournament) and in 2014 (vs. Shore Regional High School).[14] In 2006, the team won the North I Group I tournament, defeating Cresskill High School by a score of 5-0 in the final game.[15] The team then moved on to win the overall Group I state championship less than two weeks later, defeating Metuchen by a score of 2-1 in the championship game played at The College of New Jersey,[16] winning the school's first state championship in any sport in nearly 40 years.{{citation needed|date=November 2014}}

The girls' basketball team won the 2007 North I Group I sectional championship with a 48-37 win over Butler High School.[17]

In 2008, the girls soccer team became the first Group II school to win the Morris County Tournament championship. At the time it was considered to be an accomplishment that topped their previous year's state championship because the county tournament presented the challenge of much larger schools than they did during their run to the 2006 Group I state title.[18] The following year, the team shared the county title with West Morris Central High School.[19]

Also in 2008, the boys' soccer team won the North I, Group I championship, the first in the team's history, beating Wallington High School by a 4-1 margin in the sectional title game.[20] The Colts then played then 9h-ranked Harrison to a 0-0 tie in the semi-final game, but Harrison advanced to the state finals on penalty kicks.[21]

On March 22, 2008, the Kinnelon ice hockey team beat the Jefferson Township High School Falcons at the Prudential Center to win the Public B state tournament.[22] The win was the team's first ever state championship.[23]

In 2009, the boys' lacrosse program won the Group I state championship, defeating Mountain Lakes High School in the title game.[24]

The football team, which had been winless in all previous playoff games, won their first state championship in 2012, beating New Milford High School 26-14 to earn the state North I, Group II sectional title.[25][26]

On November 14, 2014, Kinnelon quarterback Kyle Presti set a New Jersey state record, with nine touchdown passes in a 68-42 victory over Sussex Technical High School, breaking the previous record of eight that had been achieved twice since 2010.[27]

In 2014, the girls soccer team defeated Park Ridge High School to win the North I, Group I sectional title. They then dispatched the favored Glen Ridge High School squad, winners of the two previous Group I titles,[28] by a score of 2-1 to reach the Group I title game. Going into the finals as underdogs again,[29] they beat the 2013 Group I co-champions, Shore Regional High School by a final score of 2-0 to win the school's second girls soccer state championship. It was a season in which the team had started at 4-4, but went on a 16-1 roll, to finish the season with a school record 20 wins.[30]
