BB82 - Not sure I understand what you're saying. The state is covering our education nut and when they drop out we have to cover it without the help of the ocean-front tax base. Voting "no" on the school budget won't be a solution because that budget could never be low enough to avoid a large tax increase. The Asbury Park kids have right to the public education consistent with No Child Left Behind mandates as well as the state laws that include the Abbott ruling. Even if spending is cut back to the point you're dreaming about I think we would still have a sizeable increase.

I understand you. Another option too is to vote no on the school
budget and force them to spend less. $18K a year is rediculous. Other
schools with good grades are spending about $8 or 9K.
