Ocean Township School District

New Jersey · runs kindergarten through grade 12

NCES ID 3412060 · oceanschools.org · (732) 531-5600

Ocean Township covers 12,257 of the homes in 5 ZIP Code areas, but its smallest measured presence is a different thing entirely: in ZIP Code area 07740 it holds 124 of 15,067 homes, or 0.8% of them. An address in that ZIP Code is almost certainly not in this district, and a lookup that names the district without the share says the opposite.

A few homes at the edge of someone else's ZIP Code

At 1,128 homes to the square mile this is city territory, and district lines in a city follow streets. Ocean Township covers 11 square miles in all — small enough that a single ZIP Code area can hold most of it, and several ZIP Codes can cut across it.

The ZIP Code areas it reaches

The spread is the thing to notice. In 07755 this district holds 100% of the homes; in 07740 it holds 0.8% of the homes. Same district, opposite answers, and a lookup that names it without the share tells the second household the same thing as the first.

The areas it leads without holding most of the homes

Ocean Township is the largest district in 2 ZIP Code areas. Answer with its name alone and the answer misses 10,257 of the 21,779 homes those areas hold — though in 1 of them it holds every home there is. The count is homes, not addresses, and it is the number no lookup prints.

Ocean Township is the largest name in ZIP Code 07712 · Tinton Falls, New Jersey and still holds a minority of it: 8,945 of 19,202 homes. The other 10,257 homes are 10,253 with Asbury Park City, Tinton Falls Borough and Interlaken Borough; 4 in districts too small to name here. This is the shape that makes a one-name answer worst — the name is right for fewer homes than it is wrong for.

In ZIP Code 07755 · Oakhurst, New Jersey the single-name answer is the true one: Ocean Township holds all 2,577 homes counted there, and no other district holds a share worth naming.

Ocean Township reaches into ZIP Code 07711 · Allenhurst, New Jersey with 357 of its 880 homes; 3 districts there hold a real share of it, and Allenhurst Borough leads them. The familiar answer for that area is one of the others, and it is wrong for those 357 homes.

Ocean Township reaches into ZIP Code 07723 · Deal, New Jersey with 254 of its 1,179 homes, behind Deal Borough. The familiar answer for that area is the other name, and it is wrong for those 254 homes.

Ocean Township is not the name anyone would give for ZIP Code 07740 · Long Branch, New Jersey — Long Branch City leads it — and Ocean Township holds 124 homes there all the same. Answer that area with one name and that is what it is wrong about.

Who takes the other homes in its ZIP Codes

Ocean Township runs kindergarten through grade 12 itself, so an address it holds sees no change of authority between grade school and high school.

They are neighbors on the same postal ground, not the next stop for its own students.

Have a street address?

A ZIP Code names every district that can serve the area; a street address settles which one serves a home. The Census Bureau geocoder takes an exact address and returns its school districts from the current boundary files, free and with no account.

What to do next

Ask the district office to confirm your street address: look on its site for a school locator, a find my school tool or an attendance zone map, or call the office.

A ZIP Code is a set of mail delivery routes, not a boundary: in 4 of the 5 ZIP Code areas Ocean Township reaches, at least one other district holds a real share of the homes as well, and the line between them runs along streets. Only the district can say which side of that line an address is on.

District websites and phone numbers here come from the NCES Common Core of Data directory, 2024-25 school year, filed under the same district ID as the Census boundary files. Where it lists no usable website, none is printed rather than guessed.

If a house purchase depends on the answer, ask the district itself for written confirmation of that exact address. A listing is not a district record, and neither is this page.

Where these numbers come from

The homes were counted in the 2020 Census and the district lines are the 2026 boundary file, so a fast-growing area may have changed since; ZIP Codes here are the Census Bureau's ZIP Code Tabulation Areas; a share is a share of homes, not the chance that one address is in a district; and a district is not a school attendance zone. Every source, file and caveat is on the method page.
