This Week at NJ21st: District Games, Scrambled Schedules, Veteran Voices and Sweeney

Newsletter

Melissa Vibes- Feltre’s approach is starting to feel a lot like more of the same. After a disappointing budget process that revealed a clear desire to maintain the status quo, a familiar dynamic emerged between her, Juskiewicz, and Stanley, involving the provision of false crisis information and questionable claims to compel the BOE to reduce accountability.

More Melissa Vibes– We provide coverage of a District Driver exposing what appears to be continued chaos in the Transportation department as she fights to keep her job due to the District changing goalposts on expectations. In digging deeper, we find that drivers, teachers, and coaches are often left scrambling due to a lack of follow-through.

Who you gonna call? – Our continued issues with power outages and the lack of response from the Township may be a taste of what to expect if the vote to sell the Sewage Plan without clear and binding expectations is included in the referendum. That fear is evident if we were to look at what’s happened in other municipalities.

Support our VFW– Steve Mondragon shares how the military has helped shape his life and the important role the VFW plays in supporting veterans.

Sweeney in the Spotlight– Gubernatorial Candidate Steve Sweeney responds to our questions on Education and Housing and picks up an endorsement from one Editor. This endorsement reflects the Editor’s opinion—not an organizational stance.
