Pinelands Regional School District is a regional school district in Ocean County, New Jersey, serving students from Bass River Township (168 students), Eagleswood Township (123 students), Little Egg Harbor Township (1,396 students) and Tuckerton Borough (232 students).
The current combined enrollment is nearly 2,000 students. The student to teacher ratio is 25:1 in the high school, and 22:1 in the middle school. Both schools are accredited by the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools and the New Jersey Department of Education.
The students are divided into three "teams": The Green, White, and Gold. Each "team" has a certain circuit of teachers.

Schools

Pinelands Regional Junior High School: 1,082 students in grades 7-9. Opened in September 1991.
WCAT
WCAT is a Television station on local channel 21 for the area that the district serves. The channel shows school announcements as well as live morning announcements at 7:32am daily.
Pinelands Experience
The Pinelands Experience is a 3-day program that's for 7th graders entering the district, usually held in mid-October. Student chaperones from 9th grade and up are also involved, to chaperone groups.
The three "color teams" are divided into sub-groups, and do 3 activities:

Bass River State Forest Trip Students go to the BRSF to go canoeing, a treasure hunt, and a pond ecology lesson, where students go into a lake to catch fish and other organisms.

Ropes Course Students go to the ropes course at the High School, which includes a rock wall and a zip-line. Although the course itself isn't used in the Pinelands Experience, students participate in many activities, including obstacle courses.

Character Counts The students stay at the Junior High, but learn a variety of lessons, including a geocaching "treasure hunt", using a GPS.

Paw Prints

There used to be painted-on Wildcat footprints on Nugentown Rd. leading into the driveways for both schools, and were paved over in mid-2006 but are now re-painted around mid-summer 2007. A few years back, Weird NJ magazine printed an article featuring many photos of paw prints that closely resemble the Pinelands ones, painted in random places throughout New Jersey. That caused many to think that the other findings were connected to the school, but aren't.
