STATE BRAGS ABOUT INCREASED SCHOOL AID, BUT NOT FOR US

State aid to the SO-M School District will essentially remain flat for the upcoming school year.

The disclosure made HERE as the district continues to review its proposed budget.

Although we got a 23% increase last year from $3.3 million to $4 million, this year's looks like no hike at all.

But for some reason, Gov. Christie is bragging that he is giving more state aid than ever - not to us.

As we have noted in the past, our state aid is pathetic compared to most other districts given our ridiculously high property taxes.
