The Brooklawn Public School District is a community public school district that serves public school students in pre-Kindergarten through eighth grade from Brooklawn, in Camden County, New Jersey, United States.

The district participates in the Interdistrict Public School Choice Program at Alice Costello School, having been approved in July 2001 to participate in the program.[3] Seats in the program for non-resident students are specified by the district and are allocated by lottery, with tuition paid for participating students by the New Jersey Department of Education.[4]

As of the 2011-12 school year, the district's one school had an enrollment of 338 students and 26.8 classroom teachers (on an FTE basis), for a student–teacher ratio of 12.61:1.[1]

The district is classified by the New Jersey Department of Education as being in District Factor Group "B", the second lowest 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.[5]

For ninth through twelfth grades, public school students attend Gloucester City Junior-Senior High School in Gloucester City as part of a sending/receiving relationship with the Gloucester City Public Schools.[6]
