The cost to taxpayers to send each student to high school in the resort town of Seaside Park, N.J. is $112,000
-- double the tuition at Harvard's medical school, notes the Vineland Daily Journal.
The town spent about $4.4 million to send 40 students to Central Regional Intermediate and High Schools
this year, 10 times the state average, largely due to New Jersey's property tax system and
school funding laws, the paper reports.
Huh? my thoughts....
“We are the poster child of bad legislation in school funding, but we don’t have the population of
votes for anybody to care,” said Bob Martucci, the borough’s administrator. “People look in disbelief
and say, ‘How can that even happen?’ The [state] funding formula allows that to happen.”
