The district is classified by the New Jersey Department of Education as being in District Factor Group "CD", the sixth-highest of eight groupings.

History The name "Gateway Regional High School District" was chosen by a study committee in April 1962, using the term "gateway" that had been applied to that portion of the county. The committee was established after the Woodbury Public Schools notified the four sending communities of National Park, Wenonah, Westville and Woodbury Heights—which all had existing K-8 school districts—that their students could no longer be accommodated at Woodbury High School for grades 9-12 after the 1963-64 school year. The district's original plan called for creation of a regional junior high school for grades 7-9 while students already enrolled would continue to attend Woodbury High School for grades 10-12. After an June 1962 referendum was rejected in three of the four municipalities, the district was formally established after a second proposal was passed each of the four communities in December 1962, leading to the establishment of the first board of education. Voters overwhelmingly approved a May 1963 referendum for $1.6 million (equivalent to $ million in ) to buy the land and construct of a facility on a plot covering that was designed to accommodate an enrollment of 800 to 1,000 students. The school opened for the 1964-65 school year.
