Voters pass school referenda in Boonton Township, Mount Olive

Boonton Township residents, who voted down a $15 million referendum in 2024 , passed this year's $28.5 million referendum 978-770.

The failed referendum in 2024 did not include a building addition. District officials posted on their website after the vote to thank "the Boonton Township community for learning about the referendum and taking time to vote."

District officials, posting after the vote, anticipate construction to begin next summer. "We appreciate
