Ridgewood NJ, despite many assurances the decision more than a year ago to move Ridgewood Schools to an all-day kindergarten format may finally catch up with residents to the tune of a $500,000 tax increase this year.
During that time there was heavy debate as to the value of full day kindergarten ,which seemed to amount to no more than a convenience for parents personal schedules. Lately the schools have been under pressure due to a well publicized bullying incident , falling academic rankings and use of school time for administration sponsored protests .
This is looking like another poor decision by the Ridgewood BOE is going to cost Ridgewood ‘s over taxed residents .
Nothing to see here…
The rich stupid people (us) will pay.
.
Now let’s build that massive garage… don’t worry – it will pay for itself.

Moved to West Morris, not looking back!
Steve is right
it’s a broken town..sadly..Taxes will explode over ext ten years.
complete mismanagement come home to roost.
roads tell the whole sad story,
Shocker!
Its already costing big time but look at who’s running (or not running) the place. Time to move on
