Pitman High School is a comprehensive community public high school in Pitman, in Gloucester County, in the U.S. state of New Jersey, serving students in ninth through twelfth grades as the lone secondary school of the Pitman School District.
As of the 2022–23 school year, the school had an enrollment of 330 students and 35.1 classroom teachers (on an FTE basis), for a student–teacher ratio of 9.4:1. There were 50 students (15.2% of enrollment) eligible for free lunch and 7 (2.1% of students) eligible for reduced-cost lunch.
History
The district created its first high school program in 1922, before which students were sent to either Glassboro High School or Woodbury High School. In June 1926, a group of 50 students became the first graduates of the high school. A new Pitman High School opened in September 1926, having been constructed at a cost of $225,000 (equivalent to $3.9 million in 2023). That building was repurposed as a middle school after the current high school building was completed in 1972.
Students from Mantua Township had attended Pitman High School as part of a sending/receiving relationship until Clearview Regional High School opened in September 1960. Pitman officials had notified the Mantua Township School District that its incoming ninth grade students could no longer be accepted at the Pitman school after September 1958.
