023we were using that time and as efficiently as possible um and I'm pretty happy to report I think you'll all agree that at this point let's achieve that we've completely changed the schedule so that we can refocus our time meeting a month um really investing heavily in the committee work that we're doing um expanding those needs where necessary it was happening because accommodated operations for this last cycle for January um and here we have a highly engaged and inquisitive reward and I'm really proud of that um I also want to thank both our administrative team as well as Mrs Casino for those of you who didn't notice on the right hand side of the stage facing out we actually have all district goals as well as our goal of goals now uh displayed and available
024just don't remind us all what we said we were setting out to accomplish we had our Retreat back in August um with five to six months to go still in the year one of the things we talked about at governance in terms that Bob will cover in his report is what do we aspire to do next and I'm happy to report again that we do have some ideas in the hot workout we can continue to do more and do better involves and more become better informed and become more professional as we go so I just want to thank everybody for your hard work and getting us to this point know that the journey is not over we still have more that we're going to accomplish but I think it's pretty amazing that we've already achieved
025what we set out to for the year and now we can move on to bigger and better things uh the second thing I wanted to mention is as a late addition to tonight's agenda um Mrs Fisher has announced her dependent retirement and while it's not entirely unexpected um certainly isn't it Bittersweet uh you know that has been with us after the better part of the last decade um making contributions to the district overall and while we'll decide to see you go about I'm very excited for what I was next for you so congratulations on reaching this box foreign [Music] School administrators we really appreciate you we're going to miss you but we're we're going to enjoy our remaining time and uh we want you to have a great time when you leave but we want
026to spend some time with you so thank you [Applause] well that'll actually include my comments and we can move on to the committee reports so the first up is education um just for everybody's awareness we are going to be making a change to the education committee Mrs Lima is going to return to being a regular member and Mr Dawson is actually going to stop in for so I hope that between the two of you guys you can deliver the report for this month and then Mr Dawson maybe you can take over great that was good all right so the education committee met last Monday um again continuing um but unfortunately a shortages of staff so they uh the effort in terms of trying to get as much support as they can um for to provide
027additional academic um support for those students to discussed about the different levels of support available to students who are not on grade level um so again with the uh with the testing and that they obtained from from the assessments that they do throughout the year um they are able to the district is able to develop a plan in terms of what supports are needed at what level for what grade level and so um again due to shortages just you know overall more nice beer they are um anticipating or it's been put into the uh the budget to get additional academic support in the area of math because right now um there is limited um additional again instructional support in that area but for next year it has been put in the budget to increase the
028support that's provided um to lower grade levels um foreign and students who are also who were also referred to the entire referral service anything else that you'd like to add no I thought you covered all the points that I expected any of the other committee members who uh had any observations I I just think uh honestly I covered everything well and I think we as a board are eager to support um District clients and look at what our students needs are and the way that we can support them and taking the goals thank you I know it's a little bit out of sequence and Mr Zucker I hope you don't indulge me but since we talked about your need to potentially invest in additional support for students uh maybe it would be a good transitional
029proper insurance we can do that thanks well I want to thank you very soon I want to thank the stores professionalism so one of the biggest things we did I told you about money there was a lot of presentations and moving benefits our expectations opposed retirement Health costs or responsibility of the state of New Jersey school districts they're not Material disclosures but are required by accounting important she presented the committee Community with a draft that indicated a fund balance of the district fund the balance for the last year important because and the excess Surplus recommendations [Music] I was really impressed with the fluidity and how everything went to being on the board a lot sitting through these in the past um sometimes we would end up with complications but this was a very clean School
030uh update that we got and we're going to be uh you know we're going to be keeping an eye on this one updates to come up let us all know but I think we're I think we're really running in a positive in a positive area budget questions on that part yeah if I could just add for everybody's benefit the draft report this committee is tentatively scheduled to be presented to the full board at our public meeting in February just so that you don't think that this is the only view that you're going to get of it full copy of the report as well as the presentation by the external factors we were just hoping that the audit itself could be finalized before the presentation is delivered that's so we also have some construction addition updates
031the HVAC projects um we're talking about what we're looking at all of the things that have been done I I was really impressed with all of the construction is going very soon which I really appreciate uh wiring painting of installed in schools Smalling cafeteria project we talked about the project at the time that this Broken Ground and a community letter was sent in demolition work was begun in concrete steps or include and large equipment was being removed from the black cop to prepare for the experience this was how amazing I think this is when when this does get completed it's finally incredible one of the most important projects everyone is looking for fields I don't know if anyone has been by the field but it is absolutely stellar um waiting on some final paperwork in
032practice when we looked at everything um I was I was very very happy um you should be able to reopen the facility sometimes you miss of course would be on an updated [Music] finalized this is finalized very soon within a week or so Dr Gallagher sent pictures today of the lights that have been all set up and the LEDs shining on the new turf field it's really spectacular it looks like a college you know it's I think that um another issue that we spoke about we had some concerns but High School um we talked about that for a temporary engagement exchange for a 100 consideration members yes getting sent an email to the person who solicited the abusement and she said she was going to check with those responsible and get back to me right
033away I don't expect it to be a problem but specifically the committee and the Mr jumuzi had concerns about the student and pedestrian safety yes and mitigating factors such as some additional supervision to make sure that while this is going on excellent I appreciate it we also talk about because operations we probably can always go over now we need to stick to that uh we talked about some future we're also going to have uh next Thursday operations Community to talk about the architect that will presents so over all in all I was very impressed covered a lot of ground I think what a question regarding the easement that's on West Maple the easement was on yeah the board office but it's it's closer to the high school closer yeah um it's for a utility engagement
034there's some needs by the Department of Transportation to temporarily use our ground and temporarily on italics with 500 rental for our property while they're doing their utility should just be a matter of a couple weeks okay and the pictures are exactly in the maps and the blueprints are all in board docs if anybody wants to speak with you thank you Mr President that concludes my report uh mine is actually a little bit shorter this month um we had no new policies to look over so that saved us a bunch of time um we talked well on our agenda actually it was adjusting the committee meeting schedule which we were able to do this past month by starting at five o'clock we plan to continue that because of scene lines at least as as through governance
035and through education everything was within five minutes of on time which is much better than before so if those of you at the end of the night didn't uh notice that you were sitting around and waiting someone that's because operation did start a half hour earlier um we're going to keep it that way but we also know that some committees from time to time will have special presentations special require more time so just keep an eye on the schedule we anticipate that it will stay the same but there may be months where things have to shift a half hour one way or the other if one committee needs a little bit more time so don't just assume that you know let's say six o'clock it may be that you shift one way or the other
036depending on me um next we have talked uh twice now about creating an ad hoc extracurricular committee uh we are ready to move forward with that all we need now is to talk about membership and a meeting schedule so if anyone is interested in being on that committee please like either myself or Mr news you know so that we can inform the committee and then of course once we have the members we will talk about times we don't know that it's going to fit on the same night as the other committees it would get pretty late but we'll see where it fits in the week and based on the committee members schedules we'll schedule that as well uh lastly we talked oh no not lastly I'm sorry there's there's one thing um next we talked
037about um moving towards board certification we have taken the first few steps towards that I spoke to Gwen before our committee meeting she's going to come out in to our February board meeting and she's going to give us our first training which is our yearly ethics training which is required anyway so she'll be doing that in February she also sent us a name which I will get to all of you through email a list of uh trainings that that she offers but she also told me that if there's something that isn't on the list that I sent you that we really feel strongly that we need they can set up a training room pretty much any time uh in her list was something that I think the majority of the board would probably need a
038light to see which is um evaluation of superintendent and our self-evaluation of the board I know that there are a lot of new newer members on the board who haven't done that before so we asked her if she would do that one as well and she's actually going to come back right in March and do that one because we have to do that at the end of the school year so that'll have our training done before we have to do the actual evaluation but like I said I'm going to send you all a list of some of the potential trainings that they offer I'm going to ask you to send me back a list of your top three or four in order and then we'll rank them all and see which ones we want to
039ask for next so look for that email coming out in the next day or two and lastly we did uh speak briefly about our new student representative and kind of what we're what what your role is going to be I don't know if you've had any ideas or not I don't want to put you on the spot in case you don't but um just from what we've seen in other districts it seems like um we would like to hear from you both good and bad we would like to hear if there's something very positive going on in the schools that you want to highlight for us and showcase for us and we also want to hear if you hear from the students any concerns that you want to bring to the board that we can
040help you address we want to hear good and bad from you so feel free to come with notes and speak you know freely because we we are going to value your opinion and what you have to say yeah uh one of my original plans when I got elected was to send out a school-wide survey and see what they thought the problems were they wouldn't be good and bad so next time I will bring no children okay yeah um whenever you compile you know your survey daily you can bring in just just uh is able to let you notice what you put it on the agenda I'm going to be with him okay so yeah just let Dr Freeman know so we can have it on the agenda so we know you're ready to speak whenever
041you're ready thank you and that's all I have for governance any questions there thank you Mr bound moving over to human resources so it was Human Resources met on the 9th it was brief um the Delta Dental plans have been introduced and questions from staff have been addressed in about 40 to 50 employees successfully switched over time we're continuing to monitor vacancies spreadsheet which I appreciate retro changes have been completed from our MLA um and let's see there were two employees that were found to be on the correct um salary guide so they were listed as custodians listed under building in the grounds so we or the district has corrected that and it is actually agenda item 6.5 tonight so that has been for mediated and then um we're focused on negotiations so getting our
042priorities and getting our what we think are our priorities together and getting and I would say just for clarity we're talking about negotiations with about work education associations just concluded a one-year deal and that's set to expire at the end of this so we want to make sure that we're in a good position to come back did you want the turnover um we just had a HR Committee just had a general question um regarding turnover from September 20 on to January 22 and then September 22 to January 23 and it's um 21-22 it was 10. it's been 16. so not just noted notice and again I think that goes along with some of the commentary that we've heard about the way which is the difficulties that we have in practice it's so important for us
043to focus it's everywhere yeah great any questions [Music] all right over to miss Casino for Community engagement and communication okay we're not doing that um no I don't I kind of don't think I'm gonna need it but um you guys let me know if you can't hear me down at the end uh we had a good productive meeting uh we didn't really have uh but we didn't have a community outreach member visit us this week or this last month meeting we will however in February um agreed to come out of the sex so we'll be seeing her meeting with her and learning a little bit more about what she does in her role as a Downtown City Manager we did go through some agenda items from 2022 that we wanted to carry into 2023 one
044of those being a social media calendar maybe putting something together that's a little more structured so we can sort of align community events school events with a social calendar another thing was the Alumni Association that a meeting before the committee meeting is to attend to get to know the team and continue to collaborate with them I know they have a lot of scholarship opportunities they also have some improvements at the high school they'd like to make so we'll just continue to kind of work together with them and see how we can partner up to assist each other with that and then that's pretty much it I don't have any questions on community engagement communication great Mrs High has there been an scesc meeting yet well I'm going to have the shortest report so originally the
