Ridgewood NJ, The Board of Education and Superintendent Dr. Daniel Fishbein will host residents for coffee and casual conversation on three separate occasions this school year. The first date for Coffee and Conversation is Wednesday, October 19 from 7-8:30 p.m. at the Education Center, 49 Cottage Place, Ridgewood. Future dates will follow on Tuesday, March 28, 2017 and Wednesday, May 17, 2017. All residents are invited to drop in to share their thoughts, questions, suggestions and concerns.
Will the casual conversation be a hard sell for full-day kindergarten? VOTE NO. The quoted increase to our taxes is not going to cover it when people move to the high-density housing specifically for that. And kindergartners get older–classes will be larger–we might need further expansion or even new buildings. We cannot afford this at this time.
