Government



Local government


Elk Township is governed under the Township form of New Jersey municipal government, one of 141 municipalities (of the 564) statewide that use this form, the second-most commonly used form of government in the state.[36] The Township Committee is comprised of five members, who are elected directly by the voters at-large in partisan elections to serve three-year terms of office on a staggered basis, with either one or two seats coming up for election each year as part of the November general election in a three-year cycle.[3][37] At an annual reorganization meeting, the Township Committee selects one of its members to serve as Mayor and another as Deputy Mayor.

As of 2022, the members of the Elk Township Committee are Mayor Carolyn King-Sammons (R, term on committee ends December 31, 2023; term as mayor ends 2022), Deputy Mayor Donna M. Nicholson (R, term on committee ends 2024; term as deputy mayor ends 2022), Christine "Chrissy" Cowan (2024), R, Thomas Hollywood Jr. (R, 2022) and James Rambo (D, 2023).[4][38][39][40][41][42]

Education


The Elk Township School District serves students in public school for pre-kindergarten through sixth grade at Aura School.[75][76][77] As of the 2019–2020 school year, the district, comprised of one school, had an enrollment of 327 students and 31.7 classroom teachers (on an FTE basis), for a student–teacher ratio of 10.3:1.[78] Aura School was built in 1927 and rededicated in 1949 after a fire the previous year, with the newest addition built in 2002.[79]

For seventh through twelfth grades, public school students attend the Delsea Regional School District, which serves students from both Elk Township and Franklin Township.[80][81] Students from Newfield attend the district as part of a sending/receiving relationship begun in September 2010 after Newfield ended its prior relationship with the Buena Regional School District.[82] Schools in the district (with 2019–2020 enrollment data from the National Center for Education Statistics[83]) are Delsea Regional Middle School[84] with 540 students in grades 7 and 8, and Delsea Regional High School[85] with 1,028 students in grades 9–12.[86][87] The seats on the high school district's nine-member board of education are allocated to the constituent municipalities based on population, with two seats assigned to Elk Township.[88]

The New Jersey Department of Education has considered a vote by the Board of Education of the Franklin Township Public Schools in June 2010 requesting that the district withdraw from the Delsea Regional School District, which would require that the Delsea region be dissolved as about 80% of the regional district's students come from Franklin. With the withdrawal of Franklin Township, two options being considered were to either have Franklin and Elk Townships create a new regional district with Newfield students attending on a send-receive basis, or having Franklin Township establish its own Pre-K–12 district which would receive students from both Elk Township and Newfield.[89][90]

Students from across the county are eligible to apply to attend Gloucester County Institute of Technology, a four-year high school in Deptford Township that provides technical and vocational education. As a public school, students do not pay tuition to attend the school.[91]
