Overview: The recent Bound Brook School Board meeting centered on the comprehensive 2024-2025 budget, which was met with anticipation and support from the community. The budget, resulting from a four-month collaborative effort, aims to meet the needs of the district’s students, staff, and facilities. Notably, the budget includes a school tax rate decrease from 1.2 to 1.65, potentially saving homeowners on their tax bills. This financial plan is a milestone for the district, as it reaches full funding after years of historical underfunding, thanks to an increase in state aid.
