School Funding Survey

Tell the state what West Orange schools need

New Jersey is working on updating its school funding system. Right now the Department of Education (NJDOE) is “gathering input from families, educators, students, and community members about what students need to succeed and how New Jersey's school funding system can better support them.” The survey is open to everyone in the state to submit.

Our answers to the survey last year had a direct impact on the report produced the last budget cycle — let's do that again!

Our guide walks through each question with our suggested answers and our rationale behind them. A consistent message correlated to West Orange's need is powerful. The state says they're looking for consistent themes to inform their final report to the legislature.
