These sessions help us explore the annual needs of the district

for our students, staff and facilities.

�All presentations, as well as budget documents we create

while developing the budget, will be posted online and

can be discussed in the months prior to the public hearing in April.

Background of Recent Cuts

In 2018, NJ passed a law known as “S2” that drastically reduced the amount of state aid we receive.

The cuts are applied in phases, and each year we endure them we are forced to make hard choices.

These cuts are IN ADDITION to other annual factors in our budget

    • Contractual obligations
    • Rising costs
    • Gas prices
    • Increasing insurance premiums
    • Tuition increases outside our control.

What We Can Do

We have been advocating for Jackson Schools since this began,

and will continue our mission

to help the legislators better understand

the impact this funding formula

is having on our schools.

We will provide an update soon

on the upcoming efforts of the

Save Our Schools Coalition

and how you can help.
