Introduction For decades, the Absecon Board of Education has been concerned with the quality of the education its high school students have been receiving at Pleasantville High School as a result of its sending-receiving relationship with the Pleasantville Board of Education. These concerns include, but are not limited to, the quality and quantity of the educational opportunities offered at Pleasantville High School. As a result, the Absecon Board of Education resolved to study the options available with respect to the education of its high school students in order to improve the quality of the education its students receive. With the assistance of expert consultants, the Absecon Board determined that one such option would be to pursue the termination of its current sending-receiving relationship with Pleasantville and establishment of a new sending-receiving relationship with a nearby school district, wherein Absecon’s students in grades 9-12 would be educated at another nearby high school. The following school districts were identified by these independent experts

  • New Jersey's Experience Implementing the Abbott V Mandate
    Politics, Practicalities, and Priorities: New Jersey's Experience Implementing the Abbott V Mandate Alexandra Greif INTRODUCTION New Jersey first became embroiled in school finance litigation in 1973, when the New Jersey Supreme Court declared in Robinson v. Cahill that the state's funding statute violated the "thorough and efficient" education clause of the state constitution.' After twenty-five years, ten additional New Jersey Supreme Court opinions, and three major legislative overhauls, the New Jersey Supreme Court was faced with an education system that displayed little, if any, improvement. Frustrated with the recalcitrance of the New Jersey Legislature, the court issued its decision in Abbott v. Burke V.2 An extreme example of a national trend in which courts were more willing to define remedies and provide concrete requirements for educational reform, 3 the Abbott V mandate set out an ambitious reform plan, requiring districts to institute half-day preschool, improve classroom facilities, provide supplemental programs to compensate for comparative disadvantage, and restructure elementary school curricula.4 This Essay examines what happened in the aftermath of Abbott V. In light of the problems associated with earlier New Jersey school finance remedies, it seemed the specificity of the Abbott V mandate would yield the positive results education reformers had sought for almost three decades. No longer would a resistant legislature be able to alter the definition of a thorough and efficient t J.D., Yale Law School, 2004. The author would like to thank Professor James Ryan and Tom Saunders for their insights and encouragement, Judith Brown Greif, Michael Lewkonia, Alan Schoenfeld, and Ambia Harper for their help with editing, and the people who were interviewed for this Essay for their time and cooperation.
