Since 1854, the Morris School District has been a
unifying social force and a source of tremendous pride
in our community. In our classrooms and on our playgrounds
children of every race, religion, and economic background
come together to learn with and from each other.
The Morris School District serves the communities
of Morristown and Morris Township (pre-K through high school)
and Morris
Plains (grades 9-12) by providing a supportive and challenging
educational environment for a total student population
of approximately 4,500. Within the District there
is one preschool, three primary schools (K-2), three intermediate
schools
(3-5), one multiage magnet school (K-5), one middle
school (6-8), and one high school.
In addition to our pre-K-12
program, the Morris School District operates an innovative
Community School
that offers an extensive adult school curriculum
for lifelong
learners. The Community School also provides a
nurturing before and after-school childcare program,
Sunrise
Sunset, for Morris School District children of
busy parents. Housed in each of the District's
elementary
schools, Sunrise Sunset offers a safe, supportive
and supervised environment in which boys and girls
can
work and play before and after school. The Community
School's ever-popular summer program, Summer Plus,
provides children with an active, enjoyable, and
local alternative to summer camp.
