New NJ State School Aid Figures Released: Who Gets The Big Hike?

The days of flat spending increases for most New Jersey school districts may be over – for now.

Gov. Phil Murphy’s administration this week released the proposed state aid numbers for every school district in the 2018-19 school year. Only 32 school districts would see no increase under his school funding plan (see complete list below).

Overall, state aid would increase 3.5 percent over the 2017-18 school year under a plan that requires approval from the state Legislature.

State aid weighs heavily in many district's decisions on raising local property taxes. Many often say that aid cuts or flat spending from year to year gives them cause to raise what are already the highest property taxes.

Some districts – even in areas where Murphy may be considered unpopular – saw double-digit increases, such as Point Pleasant Beach (15.3 percent). And some districts were already showing their gratitude.

“It’s better than expected,” Brian Zychowski, superintendent of North Brunswick school district, told NJ Spotlight. “Of course, it’s better than flat.”

Freehold Regional High School district is among the districts not seeing any increase under Murphy’s plan. Superintendent Charles Sampson told NJ Spotlight: "Our state aid still remains comparable to that of 2009 levels, which poses difficulties in an era of rising costs.”
