In the 2022-23 school year, the state takes its fifth step in its five-year transition back to its funding formula. More than 30% of districts are losing aid.
Federal education officials ordered New Jersey to restore millions of dollars in school funding cuts to as many as 81 school districts and charter schools.
Following expected but undesired state aid cuts to dozens of school districts following Governor Phil Murphy's address on Friday, 10th District Lawmakers are once again making a push to restore funding for several Ocean County schools.
Ocean County 9th District Senator Christopher Connors, Assemblyman Brian Rumpf and Assemblywoman DiAnne Gove have launched an online petition in opposition to school funding cuts proposed by Governor Phil Murphy in his 2020 State Budget proposal.
