Pemberton Township School District is a comprehensive community public school district headquartered in Pemberton Township, New Jersey, United States, serving students in Kindergarten through twelfth grade. The district is one of 31 former Abbott districts statewide,[3] which are now referred to as "SDA Districts" based on the requirement for the state to cover all costs for school building and renovation projects in these districts under the supervision of the New Jersey Schools Development Authority.[4][5]

The school district serves the Pemberton Township communities of Browns Mills, Country Lake Estates, Pemberton Heights and Presidential Lakes Estates, Pemberton Borough and the Pemberton Township portion of Fort Dix.[6]

As of the 2011-12 school year, the district's 12 schools had an enrollment of 4,880 students and 442.0 classroom teachers (on an FTE basis), for a student–teacher ratio of 11.04:1.[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.[7]
