Overview: During the recent Little Ferry School Board meeting, it was revealed that the state has not provided the expected level of funding to the district, impacting the preliminary budget. Despite an anticipated increase due to rising enrollment, the district received only $3,383 instead of the expected $1,397,973. This shortfall has left the district operating at only 88% of the state-mandated funding level, placing additional financial pressure on local taxpayers.
