The Board of Education is once again considering moving back the date of the Referendum. To this point the delays were based on getting as much state funding as possible before putting out the final number. This delay is based on having a proper, well-organized group to support and articulate the need for the new building.
The fact is we need the space already, not to mention the growth the school will have to absorb in the very near future. This point is no better represented than by the trailers at all our elementary schools. This is like putting an addition on your house with PODS or Pack Rats. We could continue this strategy till the outside of our schools look like a container ship in port Newark, but does that make sense?
