Abraham Clark High School is a four-year public high school that serves students in ninth through twelfth grade from the borough of Roselle, in Union County, New Jersey, United States, operating as part of the Roselle Public Schools. The school has been accredited by the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Secondary Schools since 1932. The school is named for Abraham Clark, a Revolutionary War figure and signer of the Declaration of Independence.
As of the 2014-15 school year, the school had an enrollment of 720 students and 83.0 classroom teachers (on an FTE basis), for a student–teacher ratio of 8.7:1. There were 427 students (59.3% of enrollment) eligible for free lunch and 75 (10.4% of students) eligible for reduced-cost lunch.
The school was one of 12 in New Jersey to receive a School Improvement Grant, under which the district will be given $3.8 million over three years as part of a transformation plan that will lengthen the school day, update the curriculum with integrated technology and shift eighth graders out of the school beginning in September 2011.
The school was the 306th-ranked public high school in New Jersey out of 339 schools statewide in New Jersey Monthly magazine's September 2014 cover story on the state's "Top Public High Schools", using a new ranking methodology.
