In February 2005, the Clinton Township Board of Education commissioned a study to consider the educational and financial effects of a proposed withdrawal scenario for Clinton Township, citing higher costs assessed to township residents under the funding formula then in place, through the district ultimately withdrew its withdrawal petition in December 2006.〔Staff. ("Board drops petition to withdraw from high school district" ), ''New Jersey Hills'', December 2, 2006. Accessed September 22, 2014. "He said Clinton Township is still paying more than its cost-per-pupil share due to the state formula for assessing costs in the 12 towns. The resolution to drop the withdrawal petition before the county school superintendent's office allows the North Hunterdon-Voorhees district to move ahead with its own possible referendum of more than $20 million to expand the North Hunterdon High School campus and make capital improvements at both North Hunterdon and Voorhees high schools."〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「North Hunterdon-Voorhees Regional High School District」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
