All right. Purpose of the meeting, as I said, is the special meeting to discuss and adopt the 2026-2027 budget. So, I'll turn the meeting over to Mr. Ramsey, who will hold discussions on the budget. >> Thank you,
003Mr. Lyons. Uh as you know, Hamilton School District has a very rich history for providing a world-class education at a fiscally responsible and conservative manner. So, it's certainly an honor and a privilege for me to present the 2026-2027 school budget for the Hammonton Public School System. Before I begin, I want to thank Chase Martino, our supervisor of technology, for helping me put tonight's presentation together. I also want to thank Terry Weeks, our business administrator, Margie Crawford, our assistant business administrator, my administrative team, and the entire Board of Education for your input as well. So, without further ado, here's the budget presentation. Before I start with the budget presentation, I want to start with the mission of the Hammonton Public School District, and the mission is, in partnership with the community, to provide educational opportunities that
004inspire students to achieve their full academic, social, and civic potential as they meet the expectations of the New Jersey Student Learning Standards at all grade levels. That's the goal of the administration, of the teachers, of the entire community. That's the expectation from the parents. Members of our Board of Education, I am blessed to work with 11 board members that represent their constituents and do an incredible job and spend a lot of time and effort ensuring that the children of Folsom, Waterford, and Hammonton receive a top-notch education. So, I thank you for that. Who we are. Obviously, the Hamilton School District is a pre-K to 12 district providing education from students from preschool up through 12th grade. We're lucky to have the students from the Folsom School District attend our high school, grades 9 through 12,
005the kids that go to Folsom Elementary School. And we're fortunate as well to have the students from Waterford Township join us in 7th grade at Hamilton Middle School through 12th grade and graduate from Hamilton High School. We have four buildings, four schools in the Hamilton School District. We have our Early Childhood Education Center, grades pre-K through grade one in that building. We have the Warren E. Sooy Jr. Elementary School with grades two through five. We have the Hamilton Middle School with grades six through eight. And we have Hamilton High School educating students in grades nine through 12. Uh we are an inner-district school choice program, and we service 226 students that are It's a state-funded program, the school choice. In-house services that we provide are custodial staff, our maintenance staff, our transportation department, our food
006service, our technology, our security, and various other student services that we're extremely proud of. And we do it in a very cost-effective manner. If you take a look at the population in the Hamilton School District, you can see the population is very steady. Uh 2 years ago, we had 32 uh 3,254 students in the school district this year. We have 3,240 students in the school districts, a difference of 14 students. So, our student population is very steady and very stable, and you can see right now there's 516 students in the Early Childhood Education Center. There's 678 students in the Warne Soy Elementary School. Uh just under 800 students in Hamilton Middle School, and Hamilton High School has 1,260 students. A further breakdown, uh we're beautifully diverse. Uh you can take a look. We have over
0072,000 white students that attend our school. Uh just under 900 Hispanic students, 156 African-American students. You go down the line, one American Indian, uh Alaskan Native, 25 Asian, uh one Native Hawaiian Pacific Islander, and 79 students who identify two or more races. That's who we are. At a closer look, we have more males that attend the Hamilton School District than females by about 100. We have 1,500 uh and 63 female students. We have 1,676 male students. But, the other two uh bits of information are very important as well. We have 1,500 economically disadvantaged students. Almost half, you know, of the students that attend our school district will get free or reduced lunch. We have students with disabilities. It's about 15 or 16 percent of the population. When you put together a budget, there's a lot
008of things that you need to take into consideration. First and foremost, you want to maintain your academics. You want to provide outstanding professional development for your faculty and staff. You want to invest in instructional technology where you can. And certainly, the curriculum is always changing. You want us to keep up with the state standards, and adjustments are always being made. On top of that, you got to take into consideration the contractual obligations. Uh you have staff salaries. You have health benefits that are constantly rising. On top of that, you know, there's other union agreements. And last but not least, there's ongoing maintenance. You have facility repairs. Your facilities need to be repaired. You have operational supplies to make your district run smoothly each and every day. School safety and security is extremely important. The one
009thing I take pride in in Hamilton is we've already saved the taxpayers over $500,000 through attrition. What am I talking about? We have people retiring from the Hamilton School District. Everybody's not being replaced. We eliminated an administrative position, a couple of teaching positions, a couple of aide positions. We're restructuring our attendance officer position. And with all of those subtle changes, we were able to save the taxpayers over $500,000 just from doing that and not having any impact on the quality of the education that we're providing to our students. The proposed budget, we're just under $72 million. That high graph up there that you can look at, uh 46% of that proposed budget, which is 45, my eyesight's not as good, 45% comes from state aid. 27.4% comes from the local tax levy. 19.7% of that
010money, 19.7% of that $72 million comes from tuition from Waterford and Folsom combined. And you can see, you know, some of the reserves and fund balances and extraordinary aid, you know, that make up a much smaller portion of the revenues. How's the money being spent? You know, that's important. You can see the majority of the money is spent on instruction, as it should be. You should be spending the majority of money educating students in the classroom, instruction. 21% of that money is for benefits. And you can go down the line, uh 5% is spent on transportation. 8.7% is spent on facilities and 6.1% of that budget is spent on administrative cost. And I'm also proud to report that the administrative cost in the Hamilton School District is well below the state average. You can take
011a look at the last four years of our general funds and I'm just going to concentrate on to 2026. And we had a increase in state aid, which we're extremely thankful for, 5.3%. Local tax, we're looking at a 2.9% increase there. And I'll explain that in greater detail as I move through the presentation. Tuition is up 14.6%. Fund balance reserve, up 26.8%. Miscellaneous encumbrances, up 54% from $122,000 up to $188,000. And combined revenue as a whole, up 7.8%. These numbers are there for everyone to see. Taking a look at some of the different accounts, we have our maintenance reserve balance at 2.3 million dollars. We have a capital reserve at 2.2 million dollars. And excess surplus of 4.5 million dollars. Here's the history of our state aid allocations over the years. When 2021, 2022, 2023,
012Hamilton was receiving equalization aid. We were getting very large sums of money from the state in that equalization aid, 3.2 million dollars, 3.7 million dollars, 2.4 million dollars. But something happened in 2024. That aid dropped to $133,000. Something happened last year. We lost $427,000 in aid. But, this year, with new governor, we were lucky to get an increase of $1.6 million in aid, which is terrific. But, when you consider the rising cost of electricity, the rising cost of gas, the rising cost of health care, the rising cost of salaries, you know, the $1.6 million in state aid doesn't quite cover it all. And I'll explain that a little deeper. Uh a visual about the budget in Hamilton, uh federal aid accounts for very little of our budget, about 1%. Uh local funds, 54.7% and state
013aid, as I already stated earlier, 45.2%. But, the one thing I want everybody to take notice of is the state average per pupil in New Jersey is $21,000. That's the state average per pupil. In Hamilton, our per pupil cost is $17,899. We're more than $3,000 below the state average for a per pupil cost in Hamilton. There's 72 like school districts in New Jersey, similar to Hamilton, District Factor B school districts, similar to ours. We are the 13th lowest spending school district out of 72 schools. The 13th lowest, so there's my math is right, there's 60 69 schools that's spending more than us, you know, that are similar to us. This is an interesting comparison. Tuition in Atlantic County per pupil cost in Atlantic County. Hammonton has the cheapest per pupil cost in the county. God
014bless you. At $17,899. You can go through this and see what every other school district in Atlantic County charges. And what do we get for that? The best reading and writing scores on the NJGPA in Atlantic County. And the top or second to the top math scores in the NJGPA on the 11th grade assessment. So, the taxpayers are getting an amazing education for what we're spending. Some other school districts as well. Atlantic City per pupil expenditure is $28,000 a year. We're doing a lot more with less at 17 and change. What is adequacy? You know, adequacy is what the state says you should be spending on education. That's Their recommendation is that the Hammonton school district is about $10 million below adequacy. That's what the state says, but we believe differently. We know what we
015could get done with less. You know, we're $10 million below what the state says we could be charging. You know, I'm proud of that fact. We're below adequacy and our teachers and our students and our administrators and supervisors are doing a terrific job. Participation in programs to minimize cost. We're always cognizant. How can we keep the money cost down? We participate in the Atlantic Cape May Business Officials Joint Insurance Fund for all insurance. Try to get the best insurance rates that we can possibly find. Agreement with the town for our SRO, for our school resource officers. Cooperative pricing agreements with local school districts. When we're purchasing items, we you know, get into that cooperative pricing so you get the best you know, prices that can be offered. Um e-rate program as well. Current tax rate
016in Hamilton is 1. 451. That is the current tax rate, 1.451. The proposed tax rate in this school budget is 1.481. And I'll explain what that means. It's approximately a 3% increase. And it includes debt service as well. What does it mean? In Hamilton, I mean, the average home in Hamilton is assessed at $363,000. That's the average home. For approximately a little less than $9 a month, $8 and change every month, you know, that would be the impact on the property taxes in town. About $8 and change per month to get some of the best test scores in Atlantic County and to also have some of the most cost-effective per pupil expenditures in Atlantic County. Do you have any questions from any of the board members? Thank you. >> So, I actually do have a
017question tonight. >> Sure. >> Um I guess on the second page of the posted budget um I guess where it shows I'm going down to uh it's actually got the printout. I'm sorry. I guess when it discusses uh where Hamilton's anticipating a $2.4 million increase in local revenue, which includes mainly the Hamilton Township tax levy and tuition. I guess what is Waterford tuition's increase cuz it looks like our tuition increase is making up about 65% of this total increase. So, how does that how does that play out exactly? >> If you want to see this, Tara. >> So, in these numbers, there are also Folsom's numbers. >> Okay. >> So, let's take a look. Tara, can you speak in the microphone? Is it on? It's on. Okay. So, it's not just Folsom's I mean Waterford's
018numbers, it's also Folsom. And Folsom also received a significant increase because they underestimated their students. Okay? So, I'd have to actually break that down for you. Um but what you're seeing is that yes, the 12 million to the 14 million increase, about a little less than 2 million dollars, is coming between uh Folsom and Waterford of the uh entire increase. So, if that's I don't know what that percentage is, but I don't I wasn't prepared with those numbers, but I can tell you what Waterford's percentage is separately. >> But I don't I have not right now. >> But not right now. >> Um have we Can I have that back? Sorry, I've got another question. I guess under So, you'll get me those numbers? >> I can get those numbers for >> That'd be great.
019Um and then I'll send this back over to you in a second, too. Uh just so you can I guess under the um expenditure expenditures for special education instruction, looks like it's anticipated to increase 1.4 million, which represents a 30% increase in instructional costs. However, Waterford's projected increase in special education students is only only going up by three. So, >> There is a clarification uh how it was budgeted in 20 uh 20 25 26. That was done by the prior business administrator, and it's actually a correction. It's actually a correction. >> It's a correction. So, it's not an increase in staffing, it's a reallocation uh for staffing to be properly budgeted. >> Reallocation of staff? >> Mhm. >> Okay. >> Uh cuz I actually believe we've decreased staff. >> Okay. All right, and those other
020numbers you'll get me? Thanks. >> Okay. Other questions about the budget? Okay. We can go to board member comment. I know we just met 2 weeks ago, but if anybody has anything they wish to report on, discuss, just raise your hand right here. Okay. Seeing none, we'll move into the first of the two public portion two public comment opportunity periods. Anybody who wishes to address the board, you'll have a chance right now, and then another chance at the end of the meeting before we close. Come on up to the podium, give us your name and address, and you can speak to the board. >> Okay. >> Thank you. >> No problem. >> Hi. Good evening. My name is Billy McDermott. I'm from Two Road out in Waterford. I attended last night's meeting out in Waterford,
021and Mr. Hunter, I really appreciate your your questions just now. I guess I have a question, and it's probably better to give you a little bit of context so that you understand where the question is coming from. Last night, myself and my good friends, we attended the meeting, and our situation after watching your presentation seems to be a little bit more dire than it is in Hamilton. We were told last night that we're going to see our property taxes go up by the maximum allowable number, and in return for that investment, we're going to lose 34 positions, a very essential school nurse in one of our buildings, beloved curriculum programs like STEAM, and when we asked why, we were told by our board that the primary, if not principal, reason was the increase in tuition
022from Hamilton. I guess, stepping back for a moment, it may very well be that the rise in tuition is justified and a good investment for our students and for our children. But what we were told by our board, and and Mr. Hunter, tell me if any of this is wrong, but what What told by our board was that the formula that is used to calculate the tuition is what our board has been asking for from this board. And this board has refused to give the formula to our board. >> Can I >> You know what? >> Yeah, I'm going to I'm going to address that. >> Well, can I can I just finish really >> Finish finish your Make your points and then I'm happy to answer your >> And and listen, I I to
023be clear, I don't take a position on this. I I have no idea what is or isn't not true. I'm just relaying what our board told us last night, which is variables that go into the formula are important to the end number, which makes sense. They told us that they've been asking for the numbers and have not gotten the numbers. And so really, I just came here tonight to ask can you share the numbers because apparently and we have a board member here, which is why it was even more confusing, at least to me, that this was an issue. It doesn't seem like it is an issue. But I guess what I want to know is can we have the numbers so that we can, in our town, say, "Okay, here's what you came up
024with. This is why it's worth it or why perhaps it's not. We should take it up to the educational commissioner." Whatever the case may be. It seems like a very silly silly dispute, in my opinion, and I'm just curious if you could help us out and show us the numbers. That's all. >> Sure. So, I appreciate your question. Thank you. Certainly, I would lead off by saying, you know, we we broadly value our relationships with Waterford and Folsom for, you know, in the send receive situation. Um so, to answer your question, the numbers have been provided. The methodology's been provided. Uh it's been transmitted at several levels at the between the superintendents, between the BAs, most recently between the board solicitors. Uh the public the formula and the inputs that go into the formula are
025a matter of public record. Anyone from the Waterford Township Board of Education could have gotten that information before your meeting. We provided that information. Again, I'm just you know, I'm giving you an answer because you asked me a question and I appreciate your question cuz if I were in your shoes, I'd ask it, too. Um so, you know, I would I would offer that our board is a model of transparency. We we we share everything with anybody. We answer open requests. We do all the things. So, I don't know where the disconnect is and believe me, I am just as shocked as you are. I watched that meeting. Um I'm disappointed in a lot of things about it, but the information's been provided. So, I'm happy to Sorry, one more thing. I'm happy to We
026can have someone take your information after the meeting here in a few minutes and I'll email you as We'll email you exactly what's been provided so you can see for yourself. >> Can you email me what's been provided to Waterford? >> Sure. >> That would be great because you guys are saying it's been sent and while we have the formula and we understand the formula, we are asking for the specific numbers that input to the formula to come up with the final calculations. Email it to me, please. >> Sure. >> Do so because our solicitor is telling me we don't have it. My superintendent is telling me we don't have it. Our board administrator is telling me we don't have it and as is the board president. So, email it to me. >> Sure. You
027could have You could have also asked Mr. Ramsey, Mrs. Weeks or anyone else before tonight for the information, but it's fine. I will make sure that you get it. You can have the same thing Everybody else got. You're right, we have had conversations and you had a lot to say at your own board meeting last night, which I certainly didn't appreciate, but we'll talk about it after the fact cuz I'm not going to I'm not here to litigate what goes on at the board meeting in Waterford. I'm here for the kids in Hamden. So, sir, I appreciate you coming in and I'm sorry for what you're going through. Rest assured, I'll get get you the information you need as well as what Mrs. Hunter asked for. >> I really appreciate that. I want to thank
028you. Leave my information. Will you be sending my information to us? >> Um you will You just speak to the the board secretary. She's sitting right over there to my left and your right. Just give her your information and we'll get that handled for you. >> Appreciate it. Thank you all. Thank you. >> Okay. Anyone else from the public? All right, we'll close the public portion. There'll be a second opportunity. Let's go to the agenda. We're going to go to finance items number one through number three. I'll entertain a motion. >> Motion. >> Mr. Koya first. >> Second. >> Mr. Palia second. Roll call. >> Yes. >> Now, yeah, you got to read them out. Go ahead. >> Just for the record's sake. >> Just for the record's completeness, let me read out the numbers
029that are actually going to be adopted at this time. >> Yes, so the general fund budget that total expenditures is 71 million 996 208. The special revenue budget is 5 million 148 086. And the debt service budget expenditures is 2 million 115 733 for a grand total school district budget for the 26 27 school year of 79,200 79 million 260,027 dollars. The anticipated revenues from the various sources, local sources comes to 57 million on the grand budget for 747 54 leaving taxes to be raised for the general fund of 19 million 823 855 and debt service of 1 million 695 418 dollars for a grand total of 20 million 1 million 519 273. >> Okay. >> We also have a couple other items. Um We are amending this budget, right? Are we amending this budget?
030>> We are. >> Yes, so I'll I'm just going to read the amendment. So, from the budget that was proposed, we are um amending um this budget to include $250,000 for in the capital projects line of 1200450. This will be used for land improvements and the offsetting revenue will be a reduction or source reduction in for the deposits to capital reserve, which is now 550,000 instead of 700,000. That will also include a deposit of 300 and 3,800 for the um anticipated interest. We also have a withdrawal from capital reserve for debt service. That's 158,110. The other portion of the funds for the land improvements is a reduction. Originally, we anticipated a 110,000 deposit to maintenance reserve. Instead, we'll just be doing 10,000 plus the interest of 2,500. Additionally, our health care costs have gone up
031significantly. So, the adjustment for health care was 2,473,241. That's additional. Most of that's going to benefit cap. We have an adjustment for enrollment of 21,9472. Of those adjustments, we're going to be utilizing just 200,000 of that cap. And I think that's basically it. >> Good. >> All right. Yes. >> Okay. Any other questions on the budget? Not as amended. Forgive me. Uh Mr. Mr. Coyer, you agree with the amended budget? >> Yes. >> You amend your motion, Mr. Coyer? Get that squared away. [clears throat] We'll have the roll call. >> Mrs. Peronado? Mr. Coyer? >> Yes. >> Mr. DeStefano? >> Yes. >> Mrs. Donio? >> No, I'm voting no to the budget this year. Our district >> Mrs. Tonio, you have an option. You can vote yes or no. You can give public You can
032give a narrative after. There's no problem. >> Okay. I'll have to do that. >> Yeah, let's do it. >> Mrs. Fallon? >> Yes. >> Mrs. Gerallo? >> Yes. >> Mrs. Hunter? >> No. >> Mr. Player? >> Yes. >> Mr. Cola? >> Yes. >> Uh Mr. Lyons? >> Yes, motion carried. Next, we're going to go to personal. >> make my comment now? >> Thank you. Thank you, Mr. Lyons. So, I'm voting no to the budget this year. Our district received a 5.34% increase in funding and state aid. As Mr. Ramsey discussed, that's about $1.6 million increase. Um earlier this week, the town announced a 2.7 cent increase in taxes. So, with our 2.95 is what I had, but Mr. Ramsey, you made um mention of the 2.9 cent increase. I think it will be a burden
033to our taxpayers, uh not to mention any county increases. I think right now people are struggling. Um costs continue to increase. We all have seen that, whether it be fuel costs, electric costs. Um and so, I just think that this is an increase that we don't need at this time, given that you talked about we have money in our reserve. We have uh million 4.5 million dollar excess reserve, and I just don't think that uh it's in the best interest of our taxpayers. >> Okay. >> I What do you propose as an alternative? What's your proposal for a budget? >> And to make up for the $2 million increase in health insurance, what's your How do you How do you plan on compensating for all that? >> the money in the excess reserve. >> Do
034you know what excess reserve is? >> I >> Why don't we let Mrs. Donio let Mrs. Weeks go ahead. >> The excess reserve that you're seeing $4 million is being utilized to support the 26-27 budget in addition to some additional funds being used for a total of $5 million. That was in Mr. Ramsey's presentation. So what what that happen excess fund balances is um it's used for taxpayer relief. Um and it's like a it's a formula that the state allows you to keep 2% plus or minus certain things. >> Right. >> And so that came out of last year's budget the 20 I mean audit at 24-25. And um once that audit's done it forces you to use it in the subsequent year which budget which is cuz it comes out in January so 26-27.
035So that is being utilized to support our budget this year. That whole amount that plus a little bit more. >> Thank you. >> Welcome. >> Okay. Mr. >> Uh in good conscience I could not vote for this proposed budget. This budget negatively and materially impacts the ability of Waterford Township School Board to educate its own students. This tuition calculation is excessive and unduly burdensome. And I've been advised that despite what I'm hearing here that Hamilton has failed to supply Waterford with the raw data which has been requested on multiple occasions since the beginning of March. Um the increase was also without sufficient notice to Waterford and it's not acceptable. Accordingly that is why my vote on this budget was no due to the unreasonable and staggering tuition rate charged to Waterford. >> Thank you. >>
036Okay. Anybody else have anything or maybe we'll go to the rest of the agenda. Let's do that. I'll take a motion on personnel items 4 through 26. >> Motion. >> Mrs. Fallon. >> Second. >> Mrs. Scola. Just for the record uh on item number 10 exhibit F page three. So go to it's item number 10 on the on the motion there. Exhibit F page number three, that is being pulled at the administration's request. So. Questions on that? Take a vote. Sorry, do you need to sign in? Okay. Okay. Any? >> Mrs. Baronado? >> Uh yes, I will abstain on number 16 and number 19. >> Thank you. Mr. Coya? >> Yes. >> Mr. DiStefano? >> Yes. >> Mrs. Donohue? >> Yes. >> Mrs. Fallon? >> Yes. >> Mrs. Giraldo? >> Yes, abstain on number 16.
037>> 16? >> Yes. >> Mrs. Hunter? >> Yes, just Waterford items 6 to 26. >> Mr. Paleya? >> Yes. >> Mrs. Pola? >> Uh yes, abstain number 16 and 22, please. >> 26? >> 22, thank you. And Mr. Lyons? >> Yes, with an abstention on 16. >> Motion carried. >> Thank you. >> Next, we're going to go to program students and miscellaneous, item number 27. I'll entertain a motion. >> So moved. >> Mrs. Baronado first. >> Second. >> Mrs. Hunter second.

So, I'll entertain a motion on that. >> So moved. >> Second. >> Mrs. Baronado first, Mr. Coya second.

This is the second opportunity for anybody in the public wishing to be heard step on up to the microphone, give us your name and address, and talk to the board. Okay, seeing none, I'll Mr. Thomas. >> Apologies. First and foremost, I apologize I I just missed your beginning of that report and talk to the possibility of accepting this like this like this. Thank you. I'm sorry. >> No, I'm just saying I would like a copy and that's a lot of good information. >> Yeah, I I don't know what I missed there, but yeah, I can >> Yeah, can you send that to everybody on the board? All right, great. >> No problem. Okay. Are we good?
040I'll entertain a motion to adjourn. >> Motion. >> Mr. Coya first. >> Second. >> Uh Mrs. Scola one, I guess, second. All in favor? >> Aye. >> Opposed? Thanks, everybody. We're adjourned.
