Clifton Seniors 65+ with an annual income under $92,000 can receive a Tax Freeze from the State, so the School Referendum will not increase their taxes! We need Clifton Seniors to Vote Yes to get the $55 Million in State Aid to save Clifton taxpayers 1/3 of the costs. VOTE YES to PAY LESS!

Voting Yes for the School Referendum will include security vestibules for every Clifton School - and $55 Million in State Aid to help cover the cost!

Have you heard that heat exposure has been proven to inhibit learning? A study from Harvard shows that hotter school days reduce learning. And what is the simple solution to this? Air Conditioning!

These repairs need to be done. If we don’t Vote Yes now, we won’t receive $55 Million in State Aid to help offset the costs of repairs that taxpayers will have to pay for anyway.
