The Urban Hope Act would allow for up to four privately operated public schools to be authorized and built in Camden, Newark and Trenton.The bill passed both the state Assembly and Senate budget committees and is expected to be voted on Monday, the last day of the two-year state legislative session. South Jersey Democratic leader George E. Norcross III has been pushing for the bill, particularly because he wants to see a new private-public school in the Lanning Square section in the center of Camden. http://on.cpsj.com/zHa9Qd
