Welcome to the Englewood Cliffs School District website. Englewood Cliffs is located one mile north of the George Washington Bridge in New Jersey. The school district offers a complete, quality program of education for all of its children, grades K-8 in its two schools. A warm, nurturing, child-centered environment exists at both the North Cliff School and the Upper School.

Small class sizes, standards-based curriculum and enriched program offerings encourage students to succeed while affording them the opportunity to develop needed skills and explore areas of interest. A well-educated, experienced, student-centered staff works cooperatively toward developing a positive attitude and appreciation of the value of meeting with success in school.

The staff in the Englewood Cliffs School District is committed to providing all students with a quality educational program in a safe and caring environment. Our teachers, administrators and support staff work together to provide an excellent standards-based and balanced curriculum. The program in our schools includes successful interventions for all students to experience success.

In Englewood Cliffs, the school district personnel, parents and community work together to make our schools great places to learn. Community service and civic awareness is fostered through the involvement of our parents in the active Parent-Teacher-Association (PTA). This organization, through fund raising activities, sponsors a multitude of student activities, including cultural arts programs and field trips for each grade level during the year. They are strong partners with the school district in providing opportunities for our students. Our recently established Englewood Cliffs Education Foundation will join in this partnership with the school district this coming school year.

We hope that you will find our official district website informative. It is designed to provide useful and practical information about our district’s many programs and services. In addition, it provides additional web-based resources for parents and students.
