As of the 2011-12 school year, the district's three schools had an enrollment of 875 students and 71.0 classroom teachers (on an FTE basis), for a student–teacher ratio of 12.32:1.[1] The district is classified by the New Jersey Department of Education as being in District Factor Group "DE", the fifth-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] For seventh through twelfth grades, public school students attend Hammonton Middle School and Hammonton High School, in Hammonton as part of a sending/receiving relationship with the Hammonton Public Schools, alongside students from Folsom who attend for grades 9-12 as part of an agreement with the Folsom Borough School District.[3][4][5] In the wake of the dissolution of the Lower Camden County Regional School District, the Hammonton board of education voted in 1999 to begin accepting an estimated 800 students from Waterford Township for grades 7-12 starting as soon as 2002, with the tuition paid by students from Waterford helping to lower overall costs to Hammonton taxpayers and the New Jersey Department of Education approved the agreement.[6][7] SchoolsSchools in the district (with 2011-12 enrollment data from the National Center for Education Statistics[8]) are:[9][10]

In 1997 the district conducted a survey of 700 households on whether it should adopt school uniforms. 383 persons who responded indicated that they favored uniforms while 166 indicated opposition. At the time there were some members of the school board who formed a faction favoring school uniforms, while another faction opposed them.[16] References1. ^1 District information for Waterford Township School District, National Center for Education Statistics.
