Answer» What is Maple Shade High School mean? Maple Shade High School is a comprehensive community public high school that serves students in seventh through twelfth grades from Maple Shade Township, in Burlington County, New Jersey, United States, operating as the lone secondary school of the Maple Shade School District. As of the 2019–20 school year, the school had an enrollment of 917 students and 75.0 classroom teachers (on an FTE basis), for a student–teacher ratio of 12.2:1. There were 308 students (33.6% of enrollment) eligible for free lunch and 79 (8.6% of students) eligible for reduced-cost lunch. Prior to the school's opening in 1972, the township's students had attended Merchantville High School in neighboring Camden County for 40 years. With the loss of Maple Shade students, the Merchantville School District closed its high school after the end of the 1971-72 school year and started sending its students to Pennsauken High School for grades nine through twelve. reference
