Harrison High School is a four-year comprehensive public high school serving students in ninth through twelfth grades, located in Harrison, in the U.S. state of New Jersey, operating as the lone secondary school of the Harrison Public Schools. Students from East Newark attend Harrison High School as part of a sending/receiving relationship with the East Newark School District,[3] though the East Newark district has sought to switch to sending students to Kearny High School, citing potential cost savings.[4]
As of the 2022–23 school year, the school had an enrollment of 716 students and 51.0 classroom teachers (on an FTE basis), for a student–teacher ratio of 14.0:1. There were 445 students (62.2% of enrollment) eligible for free lunch and 140 (19.6% of students) eligible for reduced-cost lunch.[1]

"East Newark school officials, who've been doing a lot of talking about a permanent 'recess' for borough students who attend Harrison High, have taken a big step to try to make that happen.... That action could mean that after completing eighth grade at East Newark Public School, borough kids would go to Kearny High School, instead of Harrison High, where they've gone, essentially, since the neighboring communities have existed."
