In 2002 an $8.6 billion program was supposed to
bring new schools to cities around the state to reduce
disparity between suburban and urban children.
Homes were destroyed to make room for the $27
million New University High School for 1,000 Newark
students on Hawthorne Avenue and Dewey
Street. Then three years later the Schools
Construction Corporation ran out of money and 207
school projects across the state were cancelled
including the New University High School.
