 In  a response to an outrageous editorial about Lakewood in the APP, Lakewood BOE President Mr. Barry Iann responded with a editorial of his own calling out the paper for its misplaced blame.
 "Simply put, the editorial started on the correct trajectory when it recognized that the Lakewood school district is grossly underfunded and that a legislative solution is required to address the problem. However, it took a turn into fiction by blaming the locally elected board. As Lakewood’s three state monitors have repeatedly stated since 2014, Lakewood does not have a fiscal mismanagement problem, Lakewood has a revenue and state funding problem." 

Mr. Iann also set the record straight regarding courtesy busing "The only courtesy busing that now exists in Lakewood is for the public school students" which is funded totally by the township.
