South Hunterdon Regional High School is a regional public high school serving students in seventh though twelfth grades from three communities in southern Hunterdon County, New Jersey, United States, as part of the South Hunterdon Regional School District. It has been the smallest public high school in the state. Students attend the school from Lambertville, and West Amwell Township. The high school is located in West Amwell, though its mailing address is in Lambertville. The school has been accredited by the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Secondary Schools since 1977.
In a special election held in September 2013, voters from Lambertville, Stockton and West Amwell Township passed referenda to dissolve the South Hunterdon Regional School District and to combine the three existing school districts from each municipality (Lambertville City School District, and West Amwell Township School District), with majorities in each community passing both ballot items. A single combined regional district was created, serving students in pre-Kindergarten through twelfth grade, in which property taxes are levied under a formula in which 57% is based on property values and 43% on the number of students. The executive county superintendent appointed an interim board of education for the new regional district, which was responsible for implementing the merger.
As of the 2014-15 school year, the school had an enrollment of 423 students and 41.2 classroom teachers (on an FTE basis), for a student–teacher ratio of 10.3:1. There were 56 students (13.2% of enrollment) eligible for free lunch and 14 (3.3% of students) eligible for reduced-cost lunch.
