The City planners and municipal government have little to no control over the budget for school buildings. Even the school board's hands are tied by the state - funding is handled by the NJSDA. Blame lies at the state level - and the state budget is an increasing mess. Kids being taught out of trailers, and JCMC funding cuts will continue while the state has not enough revenue to fund obligations like public pensions and debt servicing. Given the fragmented way public education is funded and managed, it's not far from being rocket science. http://www.njsda.gov/Schools/schools/ ... sults.asp?districtid=2390

Its not rocket science - If you increase housing via gentrification and build multi level, inner city, high density apartments it will increase the student population as well - Our city planners and previous Mayors are all guilty of being puppets for developers. It makes sense when there is a low voting turn-out, because your vote counts for nothing when city administrators via the Mayor, do only what and for, the ones that put campaign money in their pockets.

There isn't too much vacant up by me. Closest thing I can think of is a small lot on Rt 139. Lots of tear-downs and new construction going on though.

Perhaps eminent domain or use vacant buildings or lots to house the classes.

Maybe the school system should call these guys and see if they have any good deals?

49 school trailers in use Fixing them could cost as much as $3.6 millionMar 01, 2015 With trailers housing classrooms at nearly every school in the district, the Jersey City Board of Education is reviewing its options for replacing or doing away with those that are in the worst shape.
