Core members of the district's administration are:[21][22]
The district's board of education, comprised of nine members, sets policy and oversees the fiscal and educational operation of the district through its administration. As a Type II school district, the board's trustees are elected directly by voters to serve three-year terms of office on a staggered basis, with three seats up for election each year held (since 2012) as part of the November general election. The board appoints a superintendent to oversee the district's day-to-day operations and a business administrator to supervise the business functions of the district.[23][24][25] Seats on the school board are allocated based on the populations of the two constituent municipalities, with eight allocated to Tinton Falls and one to Shrewsbury Township.[26]
