Manalapan-Englishtown school district proposes $77M budget

The Manalapan-Englishtown School District Board of Education introduced a $77 million budget Tuesday night that, if approved, would largely leave property tax bills unchanged.

neither I nor my husband has gotten a raise, pension, ha, that went down with the market. Health benefits, I have to give an arm and a leg and my first born to pay the fees. So why do I have to support a public worker. Where am I to get the extra money to pay them when we live from paycheck to paycheck. Let board of ed cut wasted spending, you will find tons of money then.

I believe that there needs to be an outside person not nvolved with the schools or with the governor hired to review what is gong on. I am a mother of 2 and last year when the economy was stronger a Manalapan elementary school had run out of paper. I receive up to 6 pages of advertizements from the schools and YMCA per day and somehow the school found itself asking parents to donate paper. I find this not a small glitch. This same school the year prior lost my child 5 times and it affected my entire family. Things need to be taken care of & changed from teachers with bad reputations to the front desk receptionists, to the spending, before we bring thngs up to the table. These schools are public schools but somehow they make you feel like 2nd class citizens. Things need to change and gaining respect and listening to the people that pay you to me is a start.
