At the Pinelands Regional Board of Education meeting on Monday, March 18, the district’s tentative 2024-25 school year budget was announced – sort of.
The proposed budget’s general fund expenditures are $36,044,320, down from the 2023-24 general fund number of $37,143,944. But because of a huge cut in state aid, down $1,980,813 or 16.6% from last year, the amount of taxes that needs to be raised will be $22,809,872, up from $22,201,055 in the 2023-24 school year.
