History
In the mid 1990s, overcrowding was becoming a problem at the Arthur Rann Middle School. A new middle school was proposed, but voters rejected a $17.2 million referendum held on 3 October 1995. In October 1997, a $18.9 million referendum to build the school was approved by Galloway Township voters. Ground for a new middle school was broken on September 26, 1998. Galloway Township Middle School opened in February 2000.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“America is the only nation in history which, miraculously, has gone directly from barbarism to degeneration without the usual interval of civilization.”
—Attributed to Georges Clemenceau (1841–1929)
“Man watches his history on the screen with apathy and an occasional passing flicker of horror or indignation.”
—Conor Cruise O’Brien (b. 1917)
“The only history is a mere question of one’s struggle inside oneself. But that is the joy of it. One need neither discover Americas nor conquer nations, and yet one has as great a work as Columbus or Alexander, to do.”
—D.H. (David Herbert)
