Best school ever! I love this school!
Submitted by parent on August 06, 2014

I moved from NYC when my twins were three years old. The classes are so small it's better then private school. There is so much love and caring in the school that you feel like one big family. There was not one teacher I had issues with. My children were offered any extra help they needed. Alpine Public School is just an amazing place where children go on to become professionals in all fields like medicine, art and politics. This comes from the true caring from a young age that is instilled in each and every child. We also celebrate many different cultures and learn to respect other cultures. If they charged tuition I still would have sent my twins.

The Alpine School is really a private school with public tax dollars..the ratio of staff to student is one of the best in the state...The leadership is strong with a challenging academic environment...Many children from this school go on to High School and stand at the top of their classes.. Small schools have certain issues different from big schools but the good far outweighs the bad ..it is an excellent schools ...one the town should be proud of

Great public school that is similar to a private school. Well funded school so they have resources in computers, books, arts, music, and languages. Teacher to student ratio is idea for students who don't mind the one on one interaction. This gives the student to opportunity to really learn the material. In an affluent area so the community involvement is generous with donation in time and monetary gifts. People who complain should note that this school spend about two to three times more per child than schools from out of state. You're going to have your clicks but in general this school is one of the best in the state of NJ if not in the country.
