New Brunswick Public Schools is a comprehensive community public school district that serves students in pre-Kindergarten through twelfth grade in New Brunswick, in Middlesex County, New Jersey, United States. The district is one of 31 former Abbott districts statewide,[3] which are now referred to as "SDA Districts" based on the requirement for the state to cover all costs for school building and renovation projects in these districts under the supervision of the New Jersey Schools Development Authority.[4][5]

As of the 2011-12 school year, the district's 10 schools had an enrollment of 7,657 students and 630.5 classroom teachers (on an FTE basis), for a student–teacher ratio of 12.14:1.[1]

The district is classified by the New Jersey Department of Education as being in District Factor Group "A", the lowest of eight groupings.

The districts were renamed after the elimination of the Abbott designation through passage of the state’s new School Funding Formula in January 2008."
