In 1997-98 Mainland was selected as a National Blue Ribbon School of Excellence by the United States Department of Education. Washington Post writer Jay Matthews ranked our school sixth in New Jersey and 111th in the nation in his book, “Class Struggles: What’s Wrong (and Right) with America’s Best Public High Schools,” based on our efforts at exposing students to challenging course work. In New Jersey Magazine’s September 2002 issue, Mainland was ranked fifth among high schools in Southern New Jersey.

The "Lady Stangs" have qualified for the state playoffs 22 straight years in a row which is a CAL record. During that time, Mainland has played for 5 South Jersey Group III titles winning 3. Mainland has also won numerous Cape Atlantic conference titles during this time. Mainland shows its basketball excellence with 20 girls going on and playing basketball in college on full or partial scholarships.
Mainland is also the host of the Future Stars "SHOOTOUT AT THE SHORE." This event has been called the Premier Girls high school event of the season. Twenty-four teams will play at Mainland over three days in February. All the information about the Shootout can be found on the Shootout at the Shore link.
