Kenilworth Public Schools

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Kenilworth Public Schools are a comprehensive community public school district that serves students in Pre-Kindergarten through twelfth grade from the borough of Kenilworth, in Union County, New Jersey, United States.

The school system participates in New Jersey's Interdistrict Public School Choice Program at the David Brearley Middle / High School in grades 7-10. Each school year, the 15 slots are available for seventh grade and five slots in ninth grade. Vacant slots will be available in grades 8, 9 and 10. A lottery will be used to select attendees if there are more applicants than available slots. Prospective Choice participants must be residents of Union County eligible for placement in grades 7-10 who were enrolled in a public school during the full year prior to entry to the Kenilworth Public Schools.

Students at David Brearley High School come from Kenilworth, as well as from Winfield Township, who attend as part of a sending/receiving relationship.
