In a brief discussion this evening with Evan Lerner, President of the Bridgewater-Raritan Board of Education, he indicated that he is calling a previously unscheduled meeting for Monday evening, July 18, at the Wade Administration Building in Martinsville.  The time is tentatively set for 8:00 PM.

The purpose of that meeting is for the Board and its administration to discuss how it will allocate the $1,331,545 of additional school aid funding which the New Jersey Department of Education is providing to the Bridgewater-Raritan School District. 

That amount is over and above the original school aid which was included in the budget adopted by voters on April 27^th.
