Englewood Cliffs NJ, A teen who organized a peaceful Black Lives Matter protest this summer was hit with an unexpected bill for $2,500 for police overtime from the borough. Obviously if you plan an event that expends police resources, you need to fit the bill. That’s standard procedure. Every town needs to do this when a permit is pulled. Pay up.

Additionally, the Chief recorded himself instructing officers to “follow the Mayor” (me) and he contemplated bringing “guys” to town to “take care of the Mayor”.

Back to School: Englewood Cliffs school chief promises to bring back the basics

ENGLEWOOD CLIFFS — Robert Kravitz, the borough’s new school superintendent, said he believes that the problem of low math scores could have a simple three-word solution: parents with flashcards.
“My son, he may not like it, but we do math flash cards every night,” the 42-year-old father of three said. “I’ve heard too many parents making excuses for their children and for themselves. We need involvement.”
Kravitz, 42, a national award-winning principal in Fort Lee, is taking his stripped-down, family-centered vision of education to Englewood Cliffs, an affluent K-8 district with fewer than 500 students already performing well on state standardized tests.
