The district previously operated High Bridge High School. The school first opened circa 1903. In October 1972, voters agreed to place the district's high school students at North Hunterdon Regional High School, making High Bridge the twelfth community participating in the regional district. High Bridge High closed in 1973; at the time there were 180 students, and 39 students had graduated in the final graduation.[10] In 1975, high school students from High Bridge, with the exception of 12th grade students (seniors), were switched to Voorhees High School.[11]

As our student population continued to grow and our two high schools reached, and exceeded, 90% capacity, the option of choosing Voorhees was eliminated in the 2005-2006 school year for the North Hunterdon sending districts (Bethlehem Township, Clinton Township, Franklin Township, Lebanon Borough and Union Township – Clinton Town students still have choice as they are classmates at Clinton Public School with Glen Gardner students, who attend Voorhees)."
