General information



★ The Howell High School mascot is the Rebel. He looks like Yosemite Sam with white hair and a blue uniform. (The mascot was selected due to the school's original name, "Southern Freehold Regional High School," which lasted until the district expanded to three schools in 1968.[1])

★ Blue and gray are the school colors currently, although originally all schools in the district had blue and gold as the school colors at least until the late 1970s. This was originally done so the district could attempt to realize some cost savings on uniforms for extracurriculars.

★ The Freehold Performing Arts Specialized Learning Center (FPAC) is housed here.

★ The Scholar Center for the Humanities is housed here.
