The following is a list of schools and school districts in Sussex County, New Jersey and includes both public and private schools that are currently in operation, and an enumeration of defunct institutions.

Before 1942, Sussex County had over 100 school districts. Most of these districts were in rural townships that each had several districts--and each operated a one-room schoolhouse that served their small neighborhoods. During the forty-year tenure (1903-1942) of County School Superintendent Ralph Decker (1873-?), these individual school districts were dissolved and consolidated into municipal or regional districts.
