As of the 2014-15 school year, the school had an enrollment of 741 students and 53.5 classroom teachers (on an FTE basis), for a student–teacher ratio of 13.9:1. There were 60 students (8.1% of enrollment) eligible for free lunch and none eligible for reduced-cost lunch.
Bordentown Regional High School opened in 1965. It is the largest school in the Bordentown Regional School District, which was approved by voters in 1982. Original plans to have a new high school building open in September 2005 had to be delayed after construction bids for the project opened in November 2003 came in substantially above the original estimate of $34 million. With the project mostly completed at a cost of $36 million, the high school then relocated to its current building, opening for students on September 11, 2006, with the former high school building becoming Bordentown Regional Middle School. Rowan College at Burlington County offers college-level courses and provides the opportunity to complete associate degree programs at the high school.
