Stafford School District Proposed Budget Goes Forward Despite Sizeable Hit to State Aid

Late last week, New Jersey officials announced the state aid appropriations for the 2022-23 school year, and the Stafford Township School District is taking another hit.

“That hurts,” said Superintendent George Chidiac following the March 14 board of education meeting at the Stafford Township Arts Center, where masks were scarce on the heels of Gov. Phil Murphy’s date, March 7, at which time districts could make masks optional in their buildings.
