The Fort Lee Public Schools (FLPS) serve the residents of Fort Lee Borough in Bergen County, NJ. The Borough, situated on the Hudson River, is bisected by the New Jersey approaches to the George Washington Bridge, which carries traffic across upper Manhattan. Fort Lee Borough encompasses approximately 2.6 square miles and is considered a suburban community. 

The FLPS are committed to: providing challenging instruction for each student, differentiated to address his/her intellectual, social and emotional needs; following best instructional practices that engage all students in relevant learning activities; and developing students who are prepared to be leaders in global competition. In addition, the Fort Lee Public Schools are continuously working to achieve our district vision as well as toward achieving the NJ Core Curriculum Content Standards with fiscal responsibility. As a result, Fort Lee HS was ranked 72nd in the State of New Jersey, according to New Jersey Monthly magazine's annual report in 2010.

To fulfill our belief that classroom instruction is the most important element of the education of a child, teachers in the FLPS are involved in extensive and rigorous professional development. Our teachers strive to improve their skills through attendance at district led courses in Language Arts, Brain Based Learning, and Multiple Intelligences to name a few. Teachers also attend local colleges and universities to pursue higher learning in their fields of instruction.
