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:
“Philosophy of science without history of science is empty; history of science without philosophy of science is blind.”
—Imre Lakatos (1922–1974)
“Racism is an ism to which everyone in the world today is exposed; for or against, we must take sides. And the history of the future will differ according to the decision which we make.”
—Ruth Benedict (1887–1948)
“In history an additional result is commonly produced by human actions beyond that which they aim at and obtain—that which they immediately recognize and desire. They gratify their own interest; but something further is thereby accomplished, latent in the actions in question, though not present to their consciousness, and not included in their design.”
—Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770–1831)
