History
In 2017, the Appellate Division affirmed a decision by the New Jersey Department of Education allowing students from Seaside Park the option of attending school for grades K-6 in either the Toms River Regional Schools or in Lavallette under the terms of a dual sending/receiving relationship. The Lavallette district had actively supported the proposal when the original petition was submitted in 2015.[11][12][13]
School
Schools in the district are:
- Lavallette Elementary School, which had an enrollment of 156 students as of the 2020–21 school year.[14]
Administration
Core members of the district's administration are:[15][16]
- Lisa Gleason, superintendent
- Patricia Christopher, business administrator and board secretary
Board of education
The district's board of education is comprised of five members who set policy and oversee the fiscal and educational operation of the district through its administration. As a Type II school district, the board's trustees are elected directly by voters to serve three-year terms of office on a staggered basis, with either one or two seats up for election each year held (since 2012) as part of the November general election. The board appoints a superintendent to oversee the district's day-to-day operations and a business administrator to supervise the business functions of the district.[17][18][19]
