Just a Reminder..

After this November's election, we'll have the opportunity to move the School Board elections back to April and regain our right to vote on annual school budgets that now surpass $250 million. It can be done by; voter petition, the school board or the governing body taking action.

So, it's not too early to start the discussion and for the school board to raise the issue as an agenda item at one of its up coming meetings.

Given the politicization of last November's election of what's supposed to be an autonomous body, it's certainly worthy of an open and frank discussion of the pros and cons on how we the residents and taxpayers (who fund 90% of these school budgets) wish to go forward.

Remember 'The Lankey Team for Edison Board of Education?'

Anyhoo, it's not like this political alliance has done anything to fix the overcrowding in the schools that has been a problem for years now.
