History
The original school facility, Seaside Heights Elementary School, was built in 1926 and later demolished after the opening of a larger school building on the bay front. The current school was built in the late 1960s, and is dedicated to Hugh J. Boyd Jr., its longtime superintendent of schools who died in 1983.[18] The district's Early Childhood Center addition was dedicated in 2007 in the name of longtime Board of Education Member Harry M. Smith III.[19]
From 2003 to 2012, the Toms River Regional Schools provided administrative, maintenance, food and other services to the Seaside Heights Board of Education.[20] The Seaside Heights district had been overseen by Toms River central administration until April 2012 when the board elected to align with Central Regional superintendent Triantafillos Parlapanides.[21]
In December 2023, the district considered a vote on the possibility of closing the school, ending its sending relation with the Central Regional School District and merge with the Toms River Regional Schools.[22] Voters were to decide on a merger in a referendum to be held on April 16, 2024; if approved, Hugh J. Boyd Elementary School could remain open for as long as five years while the merger takes place.[23] The voters ultimately chose not to merge.[24]
School
