Instead of honoring its agreement and sending all of its high school students to Allentown High School, a school ranked by Newsweek as one of the top public high schools in the nation, see Americans Top High Schools 2016, Newsweek, http://www.newsweek.com/high-schools/americas-top-high- schools-2016 (last visited Sept. 13, 2016) (ranking Allentown High School as the 226th best public high school in the country), Millstone Township proposes an interpretation of the law in its Motion for Summary Decision that would allow it, and every other K-8 sending school district in a sending/receiving relationship, carte blanche to send its high school students to any school district it wished, notwithstanding its obligations under its sending/receiving agreement. This attempt to eviscerate the protections afforded to a receiving school district in N.J.S.A. 18A:38-11, -12, and -13 must be rejected. Furthermore, even assuming that Millstone Township has the ability to send students to other high schools when Allentown High School lacks a course of study in an subject the students wish to study, under the test Millstone Township proposes in its motion it {F&H00113816.DOCK/6} 1 would still be unable to send its students to Red Bank Regional High School (hereinafter referred to as "Red Bank Regional") because Allentown High School can easily meet its test.
