The school has been accredited by the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Elementary and Secondary Schools.[1]

As of the 2022–23 school year, the school had an enrollment of 925 students and 77.2 classroom teachers (on an FTE basis), for a student–teacher ratio of 12.0:1. There were 419 students (45.3% of enrollment) eligible for free lunch and 69 (7.5% of students) eligible for reduced-cost lunch.[2]

Awards, recognition and rankings

The school was the 250th-ranked public high school in New Jersey out of 339 schools statewide in New Jersey Monthly in 2014.[3] The school had been ranked 166th in the state of 328 schools in 2012, after being ranked 217th in 2010 out of 322 schools listed.[4] The magazine ranked the school 287th in 2008 out of 316 schools.[5]

History

The district established a high school program at Central Grammar School, which was completed in 1917, prior to which Hillside students in grades 9-12 attended Battin High School in Eizabeth. The current high school facility was constructed in 1940, allowing students in grades 10-12 to attend the new Hillside High School; the Coe Avenue (A.P. Morris) School became a grammar school.[6]

In 2001, students from David Brearley High School and Hillside High School collaborated to develop literary and art projects about bigotry presented at an exhibit, "Making Connections: Two Culturally Diverse Schools Address Prejudice and Hatred by Studying the Holocaust Together." The exhibit was presented at Kean University, and was viewed together with local Holocaust survivors and concentration camp liberators.[7]

Athletics

The Hillside High School Comets[8] compete in the Union County Interscholastic Athletic Conference, which is comprised of public and private high schools in Union County and was established following a reorganization of sports leagues in Northern New Jersey undertaken by the New Jersey State Interscholastic Athletic Association (NJSIAA).[9] Before the 2010 realignment, the school had participated in the Mountain Valley Conference, which consisted of public and private high schools in Essex and Somerset and Union counties.[10] With 634 students in grades 10-12, the school was classified by the NJSIAA for the 2019–20 school year as Group II for most athletic competition purposes, which included schools with an enrollment of 486 to 758 students in that grade range.[11] The football team competes in Division 2A of the Big Central Football Conference, which includes 60 public and private high schools in Hunterdon, Middlesex, Somerset, Union and Warren counties, which are broken down into 10 divisions by size and location.[12] The school was classified by the NJSIAA as Group III North for football for 2022–2024, which included schools with 680 to 884 students.[13]

The football team won the North II Group II state championship in 1985 and won the Central Jersey Group II championship in 2017-2019.[14] In 1985, the Hillside Comets football team finished with an 11–1 record and a North II Group II state championship with a 13-12 win against Madison High School in the sectional title game.[15] The seventh-seeded Hillside team won its second North II Group II state sectional championship with a 20-13 win at High Point Solutions Stadium against top-seeded and previously undefeated Point Pleasant Borough High School in the finals of the 2017 tournament.[16][17] In 2018, the team defeated Manasquan High School by a score of 36-10 to win the Central Jersey Group II title.[18] The 2019 team won its third consecutive Central Jersey Group II title with a 14-10 victory against West Deptford High School in the championship game and went on to finish the season with a 12-0 record.[19][20]

The boys' basketball team won the Group II state championships in both 1990 and 1992, defeating Middle Township High School in the tournament final in both years.[21] The 1990 team won the Group II state title with a 50-48 victory against Middle Township in the championship game played at the Rutgers Athletic Center[22] and advanced to the Tournament of Champions as the sixth seed, falling to number-three McCorristin Catholic High School by a score 76-49 in the quarterfinals to finish the season with a record of 27-3.[23][24] The 1992 team won the Group II title in overtime by a score of 62-60 against Middle Township in the championship game played at Rutgers University.[25]

In 2011, the Hillside High School cheerleading team, under coach Keyla Silva, won the title of State Champions at the NJCDCA competition in Trenton in the Intermediate Varsity division. After this victory the cheerleaders held this title for three years in a row, repeating as state division champion in 2012 and 2013.[26]

The school's principal is Terry Woolard.[27] His core administration team includes the two vice principals.[28]

"As both schools in the township were grammar schools, students who wished to have more than a grammar school education went to a high school in Elizabeth. Because of the growing population in 1917 a new school called Central Grammar School was built on Coe Avenue. It would later become the first high school... By 1938 the Coe Avenue School was inadequate to meet the continued needs of the community so a new high school building was completed in 1940 to accommodate sophomores, juniors and seniors."
