Ridgewood NJ, found an interesting website with stylish but inexpensive watches . The site even offers Monthly Memberships for 1 or 2 Watches for $17.99 . Chrono is the brain child of founder T.C. , who gave us the lowdown on how and why he founded Chrono Timeline Watches :
“Not always you realize where great inspiration comes from until moments like these hit you. Time seems to be the basis for everything from the moment we are born into this world and take our first breath, til the moment we say our goodbyes and take our last. And personally something I never really took note of until my father told me always keep time on me. Did I realize what that meant? A deep statement, but simple to its meaning. He meant always wear a watch so that I’ll always know what time it is…

Rutherford NJ, according to Matthew Gibson, this referendum was not to “fix schools” it was to make superficial changes like a taxpayer funded turf field for lacrosse and do things which would not affect education at all.
Gibson commented ,”They wanted to spend $53 million, of which about approximately $0 was for education. $5 million to literally bulldoze the high school poll, another $5 million to replace it with a new cafeteria. $2.5 million to turf some open space behind the HS, $3+ million to remove a playground and my personal favorite building new chemistry labs without windows which is totally safe”
Referendum Rejected
Dear Parents, Students, Faculty, and Staff,
The Rutherford community has voted to reject the proposed $53M referendum to improve our school facilities. While this is a disappointing result, we still need to provide adequate space for our growing enrollment and create environments to support our students academically. We will examine our plan to determine if there is a less encompassing alternative that could still give us more classroom space and make the district compliant with federal and state mandates, even if it does not fulfill all of our needs.
Thank you to all of the voters who became informed and supported the proposal.
Sincerely,
Jack Hurley, Superintendent of Schools
