Education
Most of the CDP is in the New Hanover Township School District (PK-12), while a small portion is in the North Hanover Township School District (PK-6, elementary school) and the Northern Burlington Regional School District (7–12, secondary), and the U.S. Census Bureau lists another part as being in "Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst" as its school district.[6]
Students in the area listed as "Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst" attend area school district public schools, as the Department of Defense Education Activity (DoDEA) does not operate any schools on that base. Students on McGuire and Dix may attend one of the following for their respective grade levels, with all siblings in a family taking the same choice: North Hanover Township School District (elementary), Northern Burlington County Regional School District (secondary), and Pemberton Township School District (PK-12).[7]
