Welcome to Rutherford High School!

It is an honor to serve as principal of this incredible school, and I am excited to work alongside our outstanding students, dedicated staff, supportive families, and alumni as we continue building on the proud traditions of Ram Nation.

Rutherford has a long-standing reputation for excellence, offering students unique opportunities to discover their passions and prepare for life beyond high school. From our prestigious International Baccalaureate (IB) Program and the new Fire Academy to our Civil Air Patrol program through JROTC and the first turf field at the Vera Shamplain Sports Complex, our students have access to exceptional academic, leadership, and extracurricular experiences.

Thank you for visiting our website and for taking the time to learn more about Rutherford High School. We are proud of our rich history, excited about our future, and committed to helping every student succeed. We invite you to discover what makes Rutherford such a special place.

And as Always, Go Rams!

Principal Jonathan McQuagge
