The A. Harry Moore School in Jersey City serves students with multiple physical, medical, and cognitive disabilities.  It offers over 100 students academic, therapeutic, and social programs tailored to their individual needs. The school has operated for 88 years, but will not open next year if a contract is not signed between Jersey City and New Jersey City University, both of whom have responsibility for the school. Where will the students go? There is literally no place that can provide the full range of services and support that A. Harry Moore does.
