The purpose of the Livingston School District is to provide an educational environment that affords students opportunities to acquire competencies that will serve them as individuals and as members of society. This environment promotes the development of ethical values and decision-making abilities so that our students can be meaningful contributors to society and lead personally satisfying lives. It fosters the intellectual, social, emotional, physical, cultural, and aesthetic development of our students.
Livingston High School is a comprehensive, public high school accredited by the Middle States Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools and the New Jersey State Department of Education.
In 1998 Livingston High School received the Blue Ribbon Award, the highest honor that an American school can achieve, from the U.S. Department of Education.
Since students must be actively involved in their own learning, this comprehensive curriculum is designed to equip young people with the reasoning skills, critical thinking abilities, and technology expertise to achieve success.
There are 15 Advanced Placement courses offered in
American History, Biology, Calculus, Chemistry, Computer Science, English, European History, French, Music, Physics, Spanish, and Studio Art. Livingston High School also offers courses in the practical and performing arts giving students a way to showcase their talents and abilities in these areas.
