Of the $20,243 per pupil, $11,826 goes to the classroom (teachers, aides, supplies); the rest to buses, buildings, counselors and administration. Building projects and debt payments aren’t in the per-pupil figure.

Thank you for being a neighbor
Revenue is well above spending. That usually means Haddonfield collects property taxes for the school district and county and passes them on, so only its own spending is counted.
Haddonfield didn’t report all of its 2022 figures to the Census Bureau, so most of these numbers are the Bureau’s estimates.
