What’s Important to Know About Our Local & State Government This Week….

This week’s newsletter starts with an in-depth look at the audit findings for Berkeley Heights, New Providence, Summit, Madison, Millburn, Westfield, and Chatham to help families of these communities provide more informed feedback on their Budget ProcessDistricts. To make the data more accessible, we’ve incorporated visual dashboards that break down key insights. Our series begins with a broad overview of Enrollment, Administrative, and Instructional Costs before narrowing the focus to Administrative Spending and Legal Expenses.

Next, we continue our coverage of recent council meetings, highlighting key resolutions and their connections to campaign contributions from vendors across New Jersey.

Dan follows up on last week’s report on the District’s GPA scale, sharing a concerning response from officials—along with a simple fix that could immediately benefit students.

We then examine yet another troubling exchange between BOE Representative Stanley and BHPSNJ staff, raising fresh legal and ethical concerns for the district. This development underscores the growing need for independent candidates in this year’s Town Council and BOE races.

Finally, we wrap up with our weekly notes and a recap of the top three articles from January.
