Freehold Township School District’s Board of Education voted to proceed with a bond referendum, with the vote planned for Tuesday, March 11, 2025. The proposal includes improvements that would increase safety and security and bring much-needed building updates to every school. A voter-approved bond referendum is the only way to capture state aid for these necessary improvements.
A dedicated referendum website is one of the opportunities the district will take to inform every member of the community about the importance of this vote.
There will be a Virtual Info Forum, Thursday, 2/20 regarding the upcoming Referendum. Please visit the district website for the zoom link: www.freeholdtwp.k12.nj.us
