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

Public school students in ninth through twelfth grades attend Absegami High School, located in the township.[4] In addition, students in the western portion of the township have the option of attending Cedar Creek High School in neighboring Egg Harbor City under the school of choice program. Both high schools are part of the Greater Egg Harbor Regional High School District, a regional public high school district serving students from the constituent districts of Egg Harbor City, Galloway Township, Hamilton Township and Mullica Township.
