Budget Workshops rescheduled for March 9 & 10

The Community Budget Workshops which were canceled due to snow last week have been rescheduled:

Tuesday March 9 @ 7:30 p.m.
George Washington Middle School Auditorium

Wednesday March 10 @ 1:00 p.m.
Ridgewood High School Campus Center

Please try to attend one of these sessions to learn about how the school district’s budget is created, where all that money goes, what laws govern the process and how New Jersey’s fiscal crisis will impact the decisions we make for the 2010-11 budget.

Superintendent Dan Fishbein and BOE members invite the community to ask questions and make suggestions for next year’s budget.

In the meantime, you can read all sorts of budget info on the district website, including the detailed 100+ page full budget for 2009-10: click here.
