ELC Exec. Director Bob Kim to speak tonight about the federal assault on public education and what it means for NJ during an important @ocosnj webinar. Register now: tinyurl.com/s35ejnvd
The federal government can and should incentivize states to provide public schools with sufficient resources to provide a quality education for every student. Here’s ELC’s report on where every state ranks: Making the Grade edlawcenter.org/research/makin… #edresourceequity
Our Children/Our Schools is setting the stage for public education as a priority now and in the 2025 NJ gubernatorial election. bit.ly/ocosnjpolicybr… #ocosnjedpolicybrief2024

@OCOSNJ to lawmakers: Over $7 billion is needed to address facility needs in NJ’s SDA districts. Fund school construction! bit.ly/ocosnjpolicybr… @NewJerseySDA

OC/OS, a statewide network of NJ education, children’s rights and civil rights organizations committed to public education, to NJ policymakers: you must prioritize public education through policy and action! Here’s how to do it: bit.ly/ocosnjpolicybr… #ocosnjedpolicybrief2024
N.J. is opening one of its most massive high schools ever. Here’s a sneak peek inside. nj.com/education/2024…
in case any NJ legislators are even THINKING about a school voucher program
The cost of Arizona’s school voucher program has caused a massive budget shortfall. Now, the state is having to make cuts to critical state programs, which will affect water infrastructure, prison conditions and more. propublica.org/article/arizon…
I’m deeply honored to be confirmed by the NJ state senate to serve on the state board of education. Thank you for the opportunity to contribute to the future of our students. Grateful for the support of @GovMurphy , @SenPresScutari , Sen Bramnick & Cryan, and Chairman Stack.
Disappointed Governor and Legislature chose to ignore their constitutional obligation to fund the school construction program, leaving 1000s of students in unhealthy and obsolete buildings. Continued inaction= Additional Court intervention.
Left out of NJ FY25 State Budget: funding for the SDA and the upcoming Educational Adequacy Report. To Do list for Legislators and Governor: update the SFRA formula and provide funding for school construction program.
NJ Senate and Assembly passed FY25 State Budget including full funding of SFRA school funding formula as proposed by Gov. Murphy. Great start with more work to do. #fullfunding #SFRAupdate
Record-setting $56.6B state budget wins legislative approval newjerseymonitor.com/2024/06/28/rec… via @NikitaBiryukov_
We are calling for $500 million for the SDA in the FY25 NJ state budget to ensure continued work on current projects and the ability to begin new projects #FundTheSDA #FundSchoolConstructionNJ
When we fight, we win! Thanks to the many organizations that worked together to oppose tax credit private school vouchers in NJ and to Sen. Gopal for withdrawing the voucher bill. subscriber.politicopro.com/article/2024/0…
OC/OS calls on the NJ Legislature and Governor to fund a comprehensive Educational Adequacy Report, a study of Local Fair Share, and a Buildings Conditions and Assessment Survey in the FY25 State Budget. Read more here: bit.ly/ocosnjpolicybr… #ocosnjedpolicybrief2024
