The story of New Brunswick High School begins in 1812, when the young city first set aside funds to purchase a building for a public school open to all local children. This small but eager student body of 143 pupils marked the beginnings of formal education in New Brunswick.
For over 200 years across its various homes, New Brunswick High School has served city youth. Many generations of former students fondly remember finding their futures within its halls through life-shaping lessons, friendships and coming of age experiences. That proud tradition continues today and will endure thanks to the investment of this community in the promise of public education.
New Brunswick High School has expanded tremendously while staying committed to being a transformative place for generations of students. The future is bright as the school builds on its pillars of scholarship, community, school spirit, and advancement toward students' goals. More history is still being written!
