An identical resolution (AR 146) is pending in the General Assembly, where it was introduced by Assemblymen E. Scott Garrett and Guy F. Talarico. AR 146 has more than half the Assembly members as cosponsors. This resolution represents a significant accomplishment by the grass roots (led by NJ Eagle Forum), who worked hard to educate citizens throughout the state. Though New Jersey's plan to make on-the-job training mandatory for every high school junior and senior has been derailed, School-to-Work or "Workplace Readiness" retains strong support from Governor Christine Todd Whitman and the New Jersey Department of Education (NJDOE). In a related development, the state's largest teachers union, the NJEA, and two school districts have filed suit to force the NJDOE to ensure that public debate is allowed before any rules are imposed on public schools. STW policies have been implemented in New Jersey and other states without such debate.

Fed Funding Update Listen Online Now Windows Overnight Music Windows BBC World Service Audio Help Schedules Podcasting Search WNYC.org Tuesday is School Board Election Day in NJ by Bob Hennelly In addition to selecting their local boards of education voters in over 550 districts will get to weigh in on the district budgets. Last year close to 30 percent of the school budgets were rejected by voters. Even though New Jersey's ever rising property taxes for local education are a hot button issue just 15 percent of voters are expected to turn out. The lack of voter interest is not just reflected in the small number of cast ballots but also in the dearth of school board candidates' so most incumbents run unopposed. Historically that phenomenon has set the stage for successful last minute write-in campaigns. Polls must be open at least from 5pm to 9pm but some distirct may opt to be open longer.
