She's not here, so I think we can go ahead and assign that to her. Um it's the alternate. Obviously, they don't require a ton of meetings as well. So, um we're going to go ahead and keep that with Miss Julian unless someone else was interested in taking that over. All right. Can I have a motion, a second then to appoint Stacy Giuliano as our alternate delegate to the Camden County School

Um, I know Michelle has expressed interest in maybe trying out a couple other committees. Are you okay? Or would anyone else be interested in the Camden County Ed services? I know most of their meetings are virtual. Um, other and I think two meetings per year it is like really mandatory because they do a lot of budget things. Um, so just looking for someone to fill that. Um,
012representative >> Michelle, did you want to stay on it and be the alternative or you don't? >> No, I would stay on >> and we don't really have We've never had an alternative before. So, if you wanted >> Oh, okay. >> Do you want to take that as the as the main just for those virtual meetings? It wouldn't be I'm going to tell them we're not doing the executive board like they put us on in the past. Yeah. >> Yeah, that's fine. Um, and it's just it's virtual, you said. >> Yeah, it's virtual. You only would have to go in February and June virtually. >> Still virtually, but those are like mandatory meetings. Yeah. Okay. Okay. That's fine.

We have a motion and a second to appoint Miss Giuliano as our representative to the Pineh Hill Board of Education. >> Motion second. [clears throat] >> Oh, we all looked at that. Thank you. Thank you, Eagle Eye. We had 2022. God, that's a long [laughter]

Miss Allen. >> Yes. >> Mr. Davis. Yes. Mrs. R. >> Yes. >> All right. And then K, I need to appoint U members to our board negotiation committee for BTA. Just so you know, they are in negotiations right now. We've always had three members. Um, but due to a vacancy on the board, when Mr. Jones left, we have a vacancy. So, we're looking to fill that. Um, obviously, there are certain stipulations. If you have a family member that works for a teachers association or you work for a teachers association, those individuals are not eligible to serve on
015um on that um committee. Um Mr. Davis and Mr. Golden have already started and kicked that off for us. So obviously it's a wise choice for the board to choose to keep those on there, but we are looking for a third member. Um that would not be conflicted. Do we have any? >> So we can have a family member that works My sister-in-law works. >> Is she a teacher? >> Yeah. >> Correct. Yes. So you would that would be a complex >> in New Jersey. [snorts] >> Yeah. So that would be a complex and you're complex. And you're >> complex only. [laughter] >> Not doing it. >> What's up? [laughter] >> Does Stacy have any? >> Um I don't think so. >> I'm already on the other one. Right. What other Oh, you are on
016the but not doing that till 2029. I said I'll go on that one. >> Um, do you want to keep it as two then? I mean, if we don't have anybody else because we have so many members that are conflicted. Um, that's the problem. I mean, there's not much we can do about that. >> I mean, I'm not conflicted, so if I have to be there, I'll be there to [laughter] be there. >> It just sound a little >> It does just help. It does just help in case one of the other members is not there. So, we have three. So, not that you if you have a conflict or something and you can't make it, that's fine. We're all really good at communicating, sending minutes, whatever it might be. But, in the event that
017you can't make it, I would just hate to only have two and then one of you can't make it and then we're we're going in there with, you know, just one representative. >> Um, >> Monday night, too. >> Yeah, we have it's virtual Monday night. It's virtual Monday night. It's virtual. It's just our team. Um, a meeting was confirmed [laughter] at all. >> Motion and a second then to appoint the following members to the uh negotiation committee for BTEA. We have Mr. Davis, Mr. Golden, and Miss Helmouth. Can I have a motion in a second, please? >> Second. >> Just voting on the one. >> Just voting on this one. Yeah. So, um Mr. Golden, >> yes. >> Mr. Phillips, yes. Miss Oriente, yes. Miss Helmoff, yes. Miss Allen, yes. Mr. Davis. >> Yes. >>
018Miss R. >> Yes. >> All right. BTPS. We need motion second if anyone is still we still have a wake. Pardon me. We have a vacancy on that one. Um from Miss Reed. The current members are Mr. Davis and Miss Helmuff. Um again that won't go to negotiations till sometime during the 20 like the winter of 2028 2029. So >> I'll do that one. I don't have a conflict with that. Right. >> No. Or do you want to do it? >> I don't have anything else. >> Okay, then you can do it. >> I can I can come off. >> This doesn't matter. You want to bail out? >> Yeah, I can go. You guys want to have >> the two teachers in charge of the administrator contract? >> Yes. >> All [laughter] right. So,
019we'll have um Miss Helma, [snorts] Miss Allen, and Miss Oriente. Did I get that correct? >> Always go anytime, right? >> Huh? >> I can always go anytime. Um yeah, you could come as like an honorary because you're the board president. >> That's someone that can't go or people. That's what I meant. >> Yeah, you're not conflicted or anything. Yeah, that's fine. Um so can I have a motion and a second then to appoint uh Miss Helmouth, Miss Allen, and Miss Oriente to the board negotiation committee for the BTPSI? >> Motion. >> Second. >> Mr. Golden. >> Yes. >> Mr. Phillips. Yes. >> Miss Oriente. Yes. Miss >> Yes. >> Miss Allen. Yes. >> Mr. Davis. Yes. Miss R. Yes. >> All right. And then M is just to appoint um the following members to
020the board finance committee. Again, we meet before our action meeting. Um we currently have um Mr. Golden, Mr. Phillips, Miss Juliano, and Miss Allen. Um with Miss Juliano doing Pineh Hill, which is also usually the same week as our board meeting. Um I know Miss Oriente expressed an interest in maybe getting on the finance committee in order to learn a little bit more um about that side of life. So, we can certainly do that. Um, I don't think Miss Juliana will mind and sometimes it's hard for her to get here early with the with the kits and stuff. So, um, does anyone have any objections to making that small adjustment and the rest of the members are still fine to be on? >> Yes. >> Okay. So, um, motion second then to appoint um, Mr.
021Golden, Mr. Phillips, Miss Oriente, and Miss Allen to the board's finance committee. Motion. >> Second. Mr. Golden. Yes. Mr. Phillips, yes. Miss Oriente, yes. Miss Hoff, yes. Miss Allen, yes. Mr. Davis, yes. Miss Rout, >> yes. >> All right, moving right along. We do have one item here just for personnel. Um, it's a long-term sub position. Um, so we wanted to get this on sooner rather than later so we can um lock in the coverage for that. So, can I please have a motion, a second to approve um super superintendent item BA1? >> Motion. >> Second. Any questions on that? Mr. Golden? >> Yes. >> Miss Allen? >> Yes. >> Mr. Phillips? >> Yes. >> Miss Helma? Yes. >> Miss Juliano? >> She's not here all night long. She's not been here. Um, Miss Oriente,
022>> yes. >> Miss Row, >> yes. >> Mr. Davis, >> yes. >> All right. And then VI is just to approve the um our board of education meeting calendar for the year, the calendar year of 2026. Um, this was all given to everybody else, I think, for review. So, I don't think there were any, um, corrections on that. Can I have a motion, a second to um, approve that calendar? >> Motion. >> Second. >> All right. Any questions on that? All right. Mr. Golden, >> yes. >> Mr. Phillips, yes. >> Miss Oriente, yes. >> Miss Helmoff, yes. >> Miss Allen, yes. >> Mr. Davis, yes. Miss Row, >> yes. >> All right. Um, public comments.

Uh, can I have a motion to second to close the meeting to the public? >> Second. >> We don't need to do another public comment. Um, and then if I can just We don't have an executive session. Um, so if I could just have a motion and second to adjurnn the meeting this evening. >> Second. All those in favor. >> All right. Thanks, guys. See you in a couple weeks. >> Thank you everyone. >> I said 15 minutes, Rebecca, but I did 18, but we did start a minute or two late. Sorry.
