School District of the Chathams
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The School District of the Chathams is a regional public school district serving students from two municipalities in Morris County, New Jersey, United States, for grades K through 12. Students come from Chatham and Chatham Township. The district serves nearly 3,200 students, made up of 1,447 from Chatham and 1,719 from Chatham Township.
Elections were held in both municipalities in November, 1986 to consider joining the two school systems into a regional district. This proposal was supported by the voters and since then, the two municipalities have shared a regionalized school district.
