 The information presented in columns 1 through 3 as well as the related descriptions of the per pupil cost calculations
 are contained in the 2008 Comparative Spending Guide and can be found on the Department of Education's Internet address:
 http://www.state.nj.us/ education under Finance, when available.  This publication is available in the board office and public
 libraries.  The same calculations were performed using the 2007-08 revised appropriations and 2008-09 budgeted appropriations
 presented in this advertised budget.  Total Comparative Per Pupil Cost is defined as current expense exclusive of tuition
 expenditures, transportation, residential costs, and judgments against the school district. For all years, it also
 includes the restricted entitlement aids.  With the exception of Total Equipment Cost, each of the other per pupil cost
 calculations presented is a component of the total comparative per pupil cost, although all components are not shown.
