I have been enrolled in the Rutherford School District since Kindergarten, and as I’ve grown up and moved throughout the schools, I have felt both extremely comfortable and prepared for the next step. The teacher’s I’ve had in Rutherford have been some of the best and I know they have wished the best for me and want to see me succeed. The relationships I’ve built with my teachers, throughout high school especially, have been extremely positive. As I moved forward in my education and took part in more challenging classes, they kept learning engaging and enjoyable. I would say my overall experience with the Rutherford School District was great, and I will surely be sad when I leave to start the next chapter of my life.
It is a great school with great people . I feel so lucky that I had the opportunity to attend this school. I came to US when I was a sophomore and I did not know a single word of the English language . However It was not a big problem because everyone was so nice and helpful , it helped me improve my growth in the English language. They helped me prepare and organize for everything from college essays, scholarships, and even college applications. If it wasn't for them, then I would've been so behind and would have missed out many important deadlines.
Rutherford High School is an excellent high school that truly wants the best for its students. Rigorous classes along with competitive students provide for this excellent high school, that Rutherford High School. Rutherford High School is also in a great location as it is only a few blocks from the main street in Rutherford. With this, students are able to access the downtown area of Rutherford. The downtown restaurants are very good and offer some very good student specials and food. On the athletic side of things, Rutherford is very good as well. Rutherford offers great, competitive levels of Freshman, Junior Varisty and Varisty sports. All in all, Rutherford is an exceptional high school.
