Chartertech High School for the Performing Arts is a public charter high school for students in ninth through twelfth grades in Somers Point, Atlantic County, New Jersey, United States, that focuses on education in the performing arts. The school operates independently of the local school district under a charter granted by the New Jersey Department of Education.
As of the 2019–20 school year, the school had an enrollment of 375 students and 43.0 classroom teachers (on an FTE basis), for a student–teacher ratio of 8.7:1. There were 249 students (66.4% of enrollment) eligible for free lunch and 34 (9.1% of students) eligible for reduced-cost lunch.[1]
The Somers Point Planning Board approved a proposal in April 2010 that had been submitted by the school under which it would spend $4 million to construct additional classrooms and a gymnasium to be completed before the conclusion of the 2011-12 school year that would allow Chartertech to accommodate as many as 400 students.[3] Although being a performing arts high school, it took over 24 years to build a proper stage.
