The West Morris Regional High School District is a limited purpose regional public high school district in New Jersey that serves students from the surrounding Morris County communities of Chester Borough, Chester Township, Mendham Borough, Mendham Township and Washington Township.〔(West Morris Regional High School District 2014 Report Card Narrative ), New Jersey Department of Education. Accessed March 23, 2015. "http://education.state.nj.us/pr/1314/narrative/27/5660/27-5660-000.html"〕 Elementary school students of the constituent municipalities attend separate K-8 school districts maintained by four of the five municipalities. Chester Borough and Chester Township schools are consolidated under the Chester Township Public School District and the remaining three municipalities each have their own districts (Mendham Borough Schools, Mendham Township Public Schools and Washington Township Schools).〔 As of the 2011-12 school year, the district's two schools had an enrollment of 2,750 students and 208.0 classroom teachers (on an FTE basis), for a student–teacher ratio of 13.22:1.〔(District information for West Morris Regional School District ), National Center for Education Statistics. Accessed August 19, 2014.〕 The district is classified by the New Jersey Department of Education as being in District Factor Group "I", the second-highest of eight groupings.

The district originally included Mount Olive Township, until that municipality voted to leave the regional system. Students from Mount Olive Township attended West Morris Central High School until 1972. West Morris Mount Olive High School, in Flanders, opened in 1972 and was operated by the regional district until the 1978-1979 school year, with the West Morris Mount Olive High School Class of 1978 being the last graduating class from this facility under the regional administration. The high school building and remaining faculty became part of the Mount Olive Township School District and is operated as Mount Olive High School.〔(History ), West Morris Regional High School District.
