“We were recently notified that New Jersey is facing yet another devastating federal funding cut from the Trump Administration – impacting critical infrastructure projects across 20 school districts to improve student health and safety.
“These cuts are reckless and irresponsible, allowing us very little time for contingency plans. New Jersey is proud of its best-in-the-nation public school system and we will do everything we can to restore this funding and maintain our reputation for excellence in public education.
“At a time of unprecedented chaos and uncertainty at the federal level, Washington is failing the next generation.”

Bergenfield School District
Fairview Public Schools
