2012-2013 BUDGET OVERVIEW

Dr. Missy Peretti,
Superintendent of Schools
 

On January 23, 2012, the Harrison Township Board of Education joined more than 86% of New Jersey School Boards in voting to move the Board Member elections to November 2012, therefore eliminating the annual voter referendum on the 2012-2013 school budget.

On February 27, 2012, the Board of Education voted to send the proposed 2012-2013 school budget to the Gloucester County Office of Education for approval. This proposed school budget strongly supports the mission of the Harrison Township School District. We continue to provide a quality education for all students, Pre-Kindergarten through sixth grade.

Additionally, we continue to differentiate instruction in order to provide students the tools that they need to be successful throughout the 21st
century and beyond. We persist in educating the whole child: intellectually, academically, physically, socially, and emotionally.

Following the Governor’s Address on February 21, 2012, Harrison Township received notification of an additional $326,925 in State Aid for the 2012-2013 school year. With confidence in an educationally sound and fiscally-responsible budget, the Harrison Township Board of Education voted to
utilize these additional funds in the following areas: tax relief, technology replacement plan, additional tuition expenses, necessary bus replace-ments, and an additional provision for gasoline and bus fleet maintenance.

The Harrison Township School District continues to be fiscally prudent. The district continues to be one of the lowest per-pupil spending K-6 districts in the State of New Jersey. In this budget, the Board was able to address the needs of the students in Harrison Township and also provide the taxpayers with another TAX DECREASE, the fifth decrease in last six budget years.  The public hearing on the school budget will take place on Monday, March 26, 2012 at 7:00 p.m. in the Music Room at our Pleasant Valley School.
