Borough History & the "New Shrewsbury" Era. Tinton Falls was incorporated on August 15, 1950 — originally as the Borough of "New Shrewsbury" — from portions of Shrewsbury Township. The borough was renamed "Tinton Falls" in 1975, taking its name from the historic Old Mill at Tinton Falls (one of New Jersey's oldest extant grist mills, still standing at the natural falls on the Swimming River). The borough operates under New Jersey's Faulkner Act mayor-council form of government, a structure typically chosen by larger boroughs and small cities seeking a strong executive branch separate from a legislative council.
Unique School District Structure. The Tinton Falls School District is unusual in New Jersey for being a regional K-8 elementary district — serving Tinton Falls, Shrewsbury Township, and the Naval Weapons Station Earle housing area (a federal naval installation primarily in adjacent Colts Neck and Howell). The three-school structure: Mahala F. Atchison School (K-2), Swimming River School (3-5), and Tinton Falls Middle School (6-8). For grades 9-12, students attend Monmouth Regional High School (located in Tinton Falls at One Norman J. Field Way), which serves Tinton Falls, Shrewsbury Township, Eatontown, and the NWS Earle housing area.
