001I think able to make it, but >> I'd like to call the meeting to order. >> Just a moment of silence, please. >> Please rise for the flag. I aliance to the flag of the United States of America and to the republic for which it stands. One nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. And according to the provision of the open public meeting act, a public notice of this meeting has been sent to board members, all district schools, the Herald news, the trends, the record, the messenger, West Milford town hall, the county superintendent's office, the board attorney, and cable vision of Warwick and posted in the administration building. Copies of the board meeting calendar resolution were provided to all local media, town hall, town library, and all district schools. >> Roll call.
002Mrs. Francesco. >> Mr. Bailey. >> Mr. Sidowitz >> here. >> Mr. Drew. Mrs. Dwer >> here. >> Mr. Gino >> here. >> Mrs. Fritz >> here. >> Mr. Yuber. Mrs. O'Brien >> here. >> Mrs. Van Dyk >> here. >> Mr. Drew >> here. Dr. Anamone, your report. >> Yes. Good even good evening everybody. Welcome to the October meeting. Just a few updates. Uh we finished our back to school nights about two weeks ago. Uh we had a wonderful turnout this year. I was able to we had eight obviously one at every school one held their academy so nine I was able to attend eight of the nine back to school nights this year we had a really good time um but I just wanted to update the board and really the entire community there was
003some misunderstandings going around a few weeks ago there was I was getting phone calls at the board office um county tech canceled the back to school night for students in grades I think it was 10 11 and 12 they had a freshman only back to school night it wasn't part of their original plan and people were calling my office to, you know, I have a sophomore, I have a junior, how do I get in? And, you know, we really just tried to explain that it's a uh it's a separate district from West Milford. Even though the students live in our town, we don't have any ability, we have no more ability to effectuate change at that school than we would at a Don Bosco or a Bergen Catholic. So, um the back to school night
004that was cancelled was not one of ours. We had nine great back to school nights. I just wanted to clarify that for the board and obviously for the community as well. Uh next up, we've been contacted by the Department of Health um for a random uh survey this year called the New Jersey Youth Tobacco Survey. This is modeled after the CDC Youth Tobacco Survey, which is national and it's a random random sampling of school districts. Then they randomly select schools within the district either middle or high school and they randomly select classes probably home room classes within the high school. So we have a few uh we will have a few classes selected this year at the high school to participate in the survey. Our students will be uh asked to their opinions about tobacco.
005Have they used tobacco? Do their friends use tobacco? Things of that nature. So all the um all the information at the end will be reported in the aggregate. This is what middle school and high school students in New Jersey believe about tobacco. So nothing will be reportable at the school level. It'll be statewide level. So uh you may know one or more students who are going to be asked to take that uh survey this year. It's a pretty quick uh I think it's about a 15 or 20 minute survey. So we'll get it done at home room at some point in the fall. Uh next up, there's a handout on the side table and all the board members have it in your uh digitally as well as in front of you right now. There's been
006some changes since our last meeting which is only two weeks ago regarding our standardized testing for this school year. So it'll be the spring of 19. So the park, if you could look at this on the left, this is last year's testing and on the the right column is this year's testing. The park as we know it is going away. They're going to be calling it uh it's going to be a new acronym. It's New Jersey Student Learning Assessment. So, it's going to be a new test. We're not sure how new. We're not sure if they're just changing the name or if they're making more substantive changes to the exam. We don't know that yet. This is really just hot off the presses. But you can see the commissioner did reduce the amount of testing
007time per test. So, there's fewer units uh in different subjects and there's also even if there the same number of units there could be uh less time involved as well. So this is this will be for the spring of 19. So how does this play out next year when we do our standardized testing survey is a question we really don't have an answer for now. I don't know how we are going to be able to compare our 2018 park to our 2019 SLA, but that's something we'll hopefully get more clarification on from the department over the coming weeks and months. Uh, and as we get that, we'll certainly report it out and share with the community at this meeting. And second to last, extraordinary aid. Um, extraordinary aid, we talk about it on our budget
008documents. Sometimes it goes by shorthand as XAD. Um it's our revenue for TW budget year 201718 was increased. So this is a number we put into our budget every year as an estimate based on previous year's allocations. So we did bring some students back from out of district placements this year which means we can no longer uh declare that tuition on our x8 application. we were able to so we were lowered in one category but we were increased in other categories such as special education aids including their salaries and health benefits. So as a result and and as an increase in the autism program at Maple Road in Marshall Hill uh as well as some IEP revisions we led to an incre led to an increased amount allocated by the state. So the difference between
009what was budgeted for is as a revenue now and what was received is 200 just under $250,000. It's $249784. So that's extra revenue that we have towards the budget. Now we're going to recommend uh Miss Francisco and I that this money be allocated towards school safety and security projects. Just to recap, last March, April, when we did our preliminary budget and then final budget, we budgeted for multiple school security and safety projects for this coming school year. Then over the summer, we had a major reduction in state aid where we sort of tapped the brakes a little bit and we said, let's before we figure out what projects we can do, let's make sure we have enough to pay our bills and get through the year. So, we tapped the brakes a little bit in
010July with these safety and security projects. Now, with this extra $249,000, I think we can be a little bit more aggressive in starting to look more seriously at some of these projects. Okay. So, um again, some of these projects will announce publicly, some of them will be very obvious, others will be more uh we won't necessarily go public with them, but we'll certainly discuss them in committee with the board. So that's sort of our plan for this extra XA money and I think we are going to transfer it transfer it to a new budget line. >> Right. There's a resolution in the budget and finance agenda and I do believe I put some information in the budget and finance committee notes. Um so just to uh recap our XA cost as a percentage every bit
011every year we submit an application and we get back a certain percentage. In 2011 12 we received 78% of our extraordinary aid. This year was just over 50%. So we're getting less and less as a percentage. Even though the amount this year went up, we're getting less percentage every year. That's because the state is allocating a little bit less money every year and special education costs are rising not just in West Milford but across the whole state. Okay. Oh, and next up we have our first student representative report. Miss Murphy. >> Hi. >> So nice to see you. >> I'm Kelsey if you don't know me. So some of the past events that I'm just going to go over that we've had in the district recently. On October 1st, Melissa Stro, a private investigator and
012social justice advocate, gave a presentation to fourth through sixth grade elementary age students regarding internet safety, social media awareness, and cyber bullying. On October 4th, the high school had their second annual expo and showcase, and it seemed to be a success. I was there myself, and I saw many future Highlanders come out to explore their academic and athletic opportunities that are going to be offered. Uh October 1st through October 5th, the high school had a week of respect. October 5th, the high school had their pep rally and there was lots and lots of school spirit. Uh followed by a football game at night. October 6th, the softball team held a successful car show at Bare Fort. October 8th, we had a senior trip and a lot of people seem to enjoy it. I know there's
013a pretty good turnout for seniors. So October 12th, uh there was a hall of fame banquet the night before and many of the inductees came to the high school the next day. There was a question and answer session held and the questions were being asked by the students straight to the uh inductees. The inductees and their families were then given a tour of the high school by some of the peers as leaders members and following that they were given a tour of Makipin by the Makipin mediator group. They received a dinner and were recognized during the football game at halftime and they got to sit right behind the end zone. For upcoming events, October 18th, there's going to be an art auction at 6:30 in the high school cafeteria for the Hall of Excellence. October
01418th is also going to be a spirit day for the high school organized by the GSA to bring attention to school violence awareness. October 19th, some of the administrators as well as breast cancer survivors will join the high school field hockey team to bring attention towards breast cancer awareness. Octo or that's October 19th. Okay. October 27th, the high school student council will be holding their second annual spooktacular from 4 to 8:00 p.m. along with Makipin hosting their haunted hallway. A portion of all the proceeds are going to go to the local volunteer first responders. And November 6, the high school is going to be having their career day. So that's all I have for that. >> Oh, welcome. We're glad to have you. >> Thank you. >> Director of education. >> I'm going to highlight
015some of our uh cultural events from the fall. Many of them were just um mentioned by Miss Murphy, but we have a few slides created by each building just to uh give you a picture represent representation of some of the things we just talked about. We can our eyes can adjust. Um this was provided by the Upper Green Lake school highlighting some of our um our major events. Um Miss Murphy mentioned um visual citizenship day earlier that was held on October 11th. That was something that was a district-wide kickoff. I mentioned it last month, but I wanted to um highlight a little bit of it as we as we go through the slides from the schools. Um each school began those lessons that are going to um you know be continued throughout the school year.
016Uh so I just want to point it out here. Pinw wheels for peace. That is something the district has been highlighting for the last probably probably eight nine years we've been involved in that. Every every child in the district creates a pin wheel and we um highlight in unison that we're celebrating the the pin wheels for peace organization. uh Mackaban School highlighted a number of the things that they've done. Uh one another that was um pointed out by Miss Murphy who saw it as a student was the presence of Melissa Stra. That's what that picture is on the top left. That is the um assembly or one of the assemblies that we've had in all of our schools where uh she comes in, she speaks to kids about the dangers and the uh pitfalls of
017of the things that they do online. Uh it's really a big theme of of some of the um cultural and and whole student types of uh education that we we're looking to do. Uh lect activities uh happened in every school. We're going to highlight some of those as we go. In the top right picture, you can see training for what is um the beginning of what we call the high school the palace program. That is the MAC mediators where uh eighth graders are trained to uh be leaders in the building, how to talk to kids, how to uh how to intervene from a peer level on students who might need a little support uh throughout their throughout their school day. The Westbrook Elementary School uh chose to highlight their uh presentation by the gentleman that
018we had uh at last meeting for the uh RESTs across America. I know each board member has a flyer uh representing what we what we saw at our last meeting. Um the uh again highlighting our digital citizenship and our our lessons that took place. We are in the process of collecting the um the projects that were created that day. It's going to have a place on our on our website. Uh Mrs. Oaks and the educational technology committee organized a um district-wide activity using something through um our Google apps for education called Flip Grid that allowed every class to make a video and highlighting um some character traits and and uh talking about that in terms of of the process of digital citizenship. Marshall Hill School uh highlighted their uh induction of their new student council
019officers which is a very exciting event for all those students who were involved in it. A little um little democracy in action where they they get to um you know perform their civic responsibilities and and vote for a peer and and have speeches and and really you know talk about what it means to be a student council officer. Um what I found was uh was interesting that uh Mrs. Cash and Marshall Hill chose to highlight their first PTA meeting. They had a tremendous turnout. So, she was very excited about that. They had uh she was bragging that they had well over um you know 20 to 30 20 to 30 participants which is a a great sign for our PTA meetings in the beginning of the school year. West Milford High School. Uh we heard
020a little bit about the um Highlander Showcase and our athletic hall of fame. There's a few pictures um on this slide from the uh induction of the our first class for the athletic hall of fame. You can see on the stage, it was a a tremendous moment. While uh Matt Stry introduced the the group to the uh to the students, the entire high school was able to sit in an assembly and hear some interactive questions with our um West Milford alum alumni who who came back to talk about their um their lives and and their experiences from a a former student point of view, which was uh which was really as a former student myself and having known and played with some of those people, it was a really exciting moment for me too to
021to see that see that take place and how engaged our current students were. That was uh that was a really um you know good moment for the for the Westford High School. Uh at the top left that is a picture from our Highlander Showcase and Expo. Uh we had another uh fantastic turnout. I wanted to uh make sure I uh publicly thank our um our youth organizations who in a unified way decided to not only not have practice or or meetings or or whatever they had scheduled for that event, but instead of saying they canceled their meeting or their practice, this became their meeting or their practice. So, they uh encouraged our our students to be part of it. Uh so I just want to make sure we say thank you to the um you
022know to the community for coming together and really really highlighting that event. Um having had um two students of the target age in that group you know I know they I know my boys had a great time and and I saw all their friends uh really really engaged all the tables and and enjoying the night. So it was a tremendous job by our uh high school staff for for putting that event together. Ashua School chose to highlight some of the uh similar initiatives that we've seen over the last few months. Um may the force of kindness be with you. So they uh capitalized on you know Star Wars pop culture theme to uh highlight their theme of the year which was be kind and and had um you know many of those uh activities to
023get the school year going for for students talking about themselves and highlighting um what makes them special and then how they can um uh in turn, you know, pay it forward and be be good classmates and good citizens. Let me go back to that one. Uh you probably saw these signs around town. The uh bottom left is a collection of kindergarten students holding up the um welcome to kindergarten from the West Milford public school signs that we we have uh we began over the last few years that every student who is coming to our schools through kindergarten uh gets that sign and if their family chooses to uh put it on that lawn, they they can do that and and uh make their first day a little bit special and and show a little uh
024show a little school pride. Maple Road School highlighted some of their activities from from the week of respect. Uh the top um the top right we have some of our um week of respect activities. Um bully free bus is the uh shirt that one of our bus drivers was wearing. We've u been able to uh work with our bus driving our our bus staff uh quite a bit over the last few years and and talk about bullying and and those types of things. So we we've uh been really excited to have them be part of our school culture and part of all of the all of those discussions as well. And this is the last slide from Par Paradise Null. The bottom right highlights what they call their um their pride assemblies. They highlight um
025good character traits as a school and they honor um students and staff who emulate those uh emulate those those good traits and and um and they're able to do that at a whole school level which is great. nice picture of the staff coming together with their school theme. Um they always put together a great um pin wheel, you know, the peace sign with the entire school's pin wheels involved. They have a fun uh fun time doing that. Uh so I just wanted to highlight it's um you know October 16th often the school year begins in a uh in a very um rapid pace and before you know it it's October 16th and we're talking about all the great things that we did. So, um I thank the principles for taking the time to and sharing
026some of the pictures so they uh so the board and and our um members in the audience and and on at home can can get a glimpse of uh inside of our classrooms. I also want to highlight that these slides are uh just a you know a small peak compared to what you'd be able to see if you're following our uh principles and staff members on Twitter and on social media. Uh we have a tremendous presence and um we have really looked over the last few years. I know Dr. Anamone and myself are are are involved in using social media to highlight our schools. So, if you're not following um our schools, our administrators and our teachers and staff and PTAs, um you're missing out on that opportunity to get a glimpse of what's going
027on um inside of our our school buildings. All of those um usernames and and accounts are available online. So, if you are interested, you can go to the Westbrook uh homepage to follow Dr. Schwarz or you can go to the district homepage and follow our schools or Dr. grandma and myself. Um all of those uh all those links are available and I encourage you to do so if you want to um especially as a parent, you know, the opportunity to be part of our schools. This this helps uh this helps bring you uh bring you in. That's uh that's my update for you know some of the cultural events to this point. >> Thank you very much. Thank you, Mr. Novak. Um, we have two uh Mr. Francisco, we have uh two uh minutes. >>
028Yes. Uh but before we get to that, I just want to note something. Um uh just clarify something for the board. in the budget and finance um minutes that were given out. Um there was a typo uh when we when I talked about the cost of the um water testing compliance and water operator's license um for Macken School. Uh it was actually $7,000, not $2,000. So, um I just wanted to clarify that because there is a resolution later on to have land start the paperwork for the um the the the um hookup into Pake Valley Water Commission. And yes, we have uh the October 3rd minutes available. >> I need a motion. >> Like to make a motion to approve the following board of education meeting minutes. October 3rd, 2018 workshop regular meeting. October 3rd,
0292018 executive session. >> Any discussion, >> Mr. >> Thank you. The uh minutes indicated that you said that it is uh in the president's address that it's illegal to respond to u emails and other recipients we might get from citizens. It isn't illegal. I don't think you said it's illegal. I said I said we've been advised by legal not to respond >> but the minutes >> you know obviously it's better to pass it on but it certainly isn't illegal to talk to constituents. So I'd rather see that corrected because it's just outright wrong. Um you had the minister reflect that you thank me for the negotiations. They don't reflect that. I thank the employees uh for their hard work to put that together. It's not a big deal, but it seemed to me that was
030as important. There was no discussion and it it mentioned that uh Mr. Foody had stood up and addressed the board and uh the single thing I remember from his comments uh were related to the budget and spending and none of that was in there. Um I had at the same meeting later discussed uh uh foregoing state funds and that wasn't in there either. Long and the short of it is I'm not going to uh approve I'm not going to vote to approve the workshop regular meeting minutes. I wish they would be corrected and I will be happy to um approve them next time. This is >> Mrs. Francisco, could we have them uh updated and maybe we can put them down for the next meeting? >> Um I will update the fact that you know
031it's not you know illegal to respond. Um it actually says explain that board members legally cannot respond to them but it didn't say it was illegal. It just said that they legally can't. However, um most minutes are just reflecting what the business of the board actually um accomplished and not necessarily a verbatim dialogue of what went on. So, if the minutes don't reflect a verbatim conversation, that's the reason why. It's just to memorialize some comments are made. It seems like they ought to be accurate. >> I I I agree about the legal down there. Um if you can update that. >> Mhm. >> Would that be something we have to just make a motion right now just to amend the minutes to reflect that uh provide some clarification to the public legality of responding to
032constituents if you like. So that would just need a second. >> So you're making the motion? >> No. >> Somebody's making a motion. is to make a motion to amend. >> I'll move to amend the language regarding responding to constituents. >> Second. >> And I just >> roll call please. >> Mr. Bailey. >> Yes. >> Mr. Sidowitz. >> Abstain. >> Mr. Drew. >> Yes. >> Mrs. Dwer. >> Yes. >> Mrs. Fritz. >> Yes. >> Mr. Greeno. >> Yes. >> Mrs. So Brian, >> yes. >> Miss Van Dyke, >> yes. >> So motion carries and then we just go back and do >> then No, we're voting on the on the minutes themselves. >> Any other discussion on the minutes? >> Uh just a voice is okay. >> All those in favor? >> Any opposed? >>
033Any abstension? >> You want? >> All right. under my president's report. Um we met with the the young men from Reeds across America at the high school as a followup because they had asked about a bus and um Dr. Anamone uh Mrs. Francisco and Mr. Brian and myself met with both both Matt and um Evan and we are working with them uh to find out how many buses they might need that day for the the wreath and convey I convey to them that they have the full support of the board and how proud we are of the those young men. Uh, also I did attend the expo which was my first one and I have to say I just the energy that was in the whole entire high school was wonderful. I think it's a
034great I I think it's a great night. It's a good night for parent I parents to come out. I don't know if I think we need to get it out a little better to the elementary school so that some of those fourth and fifth and sixth graders get out because the ones that were there really were you know really were excited about being there. So um Dr. and Mr. Novak, thank you. It was a very good night for the meeting. And that ends my report. Public comment. Members of the public who have requested to speak prior to the meeting will be first with five minutes for each speaker for a period of 30 minutes and then time permitting other public comment limited to five minutes per speaker will be allowed until the 30 minute time
035period transpires. All members of the public speaking during public comment are asked to address topics listed in the agenda. All speakers are asked to give their full name, spell their last name, and pro provide their address. Speakers may not use the names of students during public comment. Is anybody signed up? >> No. >> Okay. Is anybody wishing to speak? >> Mr. True. >> It's so work on your face. Do I need to go? >> I just wanted to say very briefly, congratulations to the football team. They're exciting to watch. Those guys really doing a lot of things great. I didn't see Mr. Gorski there to take you to be unfortunate, but boy, way to go. Way to go. Would anyone else like to speak? >> If not, see none like to close public comments. >>
036All those in favor? >> So, we need a motion. >> All right. I just want to make a few amendments or alterations to the agenda. Page five, educate education number 11. We have a new HIB that just came in this morning. It is 2019/H4 and that is unsubstantiated. >> What for? >> H4. >> Okay. On page seven, personnel student affairs resolution number 11, we have two names that were we have some outstanding paperwork on. Um Michelle Mantion, you can scratch that name off. And Melissa Muth Sammy, you can scratch that name off as well. We may be adding those names back on in November once we get this last bit of paperwork in. Also, personnel page eight, personnel student affairs number 17. I emailed the board this I think this morning or yesterday afternoon. Um,
037but the correct name is not TBD. It is Brian Bobski. That's B O B R O W S KI. The date would be effective October 29 and the salary will be 61 comma 206 with an assistant head custodian stipen of 5213 $5,213. >> And one final correction, page four. Sorry, I went skipped this one. Uh, education number five did a field trip and the dates are incorrect. It is high school softball field trip. The date of the trip dates of the trip is March 19 to 23rd, 2019, not March 13 to 18. [Music] >> March 19th to 23rd. Thank you. We need a motion to adopt. >> I'm sorry. >> Um, I received a uh text message from Mr. Hug asking for us to >> I received the same text, but I don't know what
038to do with that. As far as >> I'm asking if we delay those items until after executive. >> You you could poke you could se I don't know how to separate them on the board. >> I could weigh in. So um so you can make a motion to postpone till after executive session and if majority of the board you know you need a second call majority says yes then you guys can postpone it but majority of the board wants to move forward and reject the motion forward. So, >> okay. >> I'll make the motion to move these items. >> Could you just wait a second? We haven't adopted the agenda. That's why >> Yeah. So, for just the time being, Mr. Drew, uh, can we just have the roll call for the motion to accept
039the agenda and then right after you can make your motion and then we can move forward with it. >> The agenda hasn't been adopted yet, >> right? >> There's a roll call vote on the floor right now. We need to just do that vote. I don't even think you moved in discussion of the roll call vote and during discussion I'm making a motion to amend it to put those after executive session. >> Mr. Drew, I'm not trying to do >> I don't even think you moved it yet. >> It wasn't even vote on it. I understand you have your discussion item and I was just saying if it's permissible >> wasn't even moved. >> I thought it was >> it could be done either way. >> Regardless, um is I leave up to you just
040want to deal the motion to deal with that now. >> Let's just do the motion. Easy. >> Go ahead, Mr. Drew. >> You're the >> And Mr. Drew, can you just clarify which questions on >> I believe they were uh personal items 11, 12, and 18. And uh budget and finance numbers six, maybe it was only six and three. And what is the motion to do >> to to move those items until after the >> on the budget again? >> Number six in number three. >> I put them in the wrong order. [Music] >> So are they for they they're to be voted on after executive session. Is that what Yes. Okay. They're not for discussion in executive session. That's where my confusion lies. >> No, the motion right now is to postpone any vote
041on such things. Uh there can be no discussion on motion finance and executive. Um so there could be discussion on those items. You certainly >> All right. So we we have a you have a motion. >> Oh, hold on. Clarification. >> Yes. >> So if we vote against this motion that Mr. just made right now. >> All of those aforementioned items will be back into the agenda and acted on at this time. >> It will remain the same. Yes. So if if you vote no, then we can move forward without request. >> Thank you. Okay. >> Can't vote at all without a second. >> Right. We I need a second. >> I'll second. >> Right. Discussion already happened. >> So now we're doing a roll call. Right. >> Mr. Bailey. >> No. >> Mr. Sidewitz.
042>> Yes. >> Mr. Drew, >> yes. >> Mrs. Dwire, >> no. >> Mrs. Fritz, >> no. >> Mr. Gino, >> yes. >> Mrs. O'Brien, >> no. >> Mrs. Van Dyk, >> no. >> Okay. So, now we now am I making a mo now I need a motion. >> We already have a motion >> to adopt the agenda. >> Now, any further discussion? >> We don't have a motion. >> No, we don't. >> Don't need a second motion. I move to adopt the agenda as amended and presented. >> Second. >> Any discussion? >> If this is a vote. >> Yes. >> All those in favor? >> I. >> Any opposed? Mrs. Dryer. Education. >> I move to approve items one through 10 under education. Second. >> Any discussion? Mr. on resolution number two. Uh hopefully there's
043somebody who agrees with me on this. I think this these calendars are preemptive. Um, I think it is proper that for Rashashana and Passover that we have at least half days included into our calendar and perhaps giving it to a religious leader to just kind of give it a once over and then bringing it up again in November unless this needs to be approved and raised. >> So, you want the you want this motion table? I move to I move to postpone resolution two until the November meeting. >> I would second that. I move too. Okay. >> So that that that would be a roll call. >> Yes. Please. >> Can I just ask >> discussion? Yeah. So >> you're talking about education number two? >> Yes. >> Not number three. No. I only specifically
044looked at number two and focused on that. >> Okay. >> He's thinking of the kids. >> I know. >> Just to provide some clarification, Will, um again, you can vote anyway. Um there's a law in place that if a student does observe a certain religious holiday that isn't included on the calendar, then that doesn't count as a legal absence. Um I understand that if we want to try and make it so the kid doesn't miss any new school, um just honor whatever religious holiday that so chooses. But I don't want you to think that there's some penalty that if there was a holiday that wasn't included on the calendar that that person would be penalized. >> That's understood. Uh in in my thinking, it's more along the lines of that is a day of observance
045and school is still being conducted. And if the accommodation is met halfway where there is a half day because the evening times are when everything is celebrated in my understanding please. Uh it just seems more proper to to kind of accommodate in that manner. So I'd like to amend the motion to include resolution three as well. >> We don't observe any of those holidays. Those are that's for 12-month employees. Resolution number three. >> So there is a difference again. >> So it's not the school count, you know, it's it's for 12 month employees. >> So we need we is there any more discussion on the calendar? >> Just to provide some clarification, that law only applies to students. It doesn't apply to employees essentially. While the board administration uh can certainly honor any holidays that
046an employee wishes to take, it isn't in the law that the administration has to honor such things. you can take a personal day. Um, I'd have to look at the collective bargaining agreement just to see the exact the exact policy for this, but that's the distinction between number two, which says any student will be penalized for observing early this holiday, versus number three, where it's a negotiated uh term between the parties. So, sorry. >> Does anybody else have any questions about the calendar? >> Okay, so we we need a vote. We need a roll call vote on the tableing number. >> Mr. Bailey.

Uh safety uh we were scheduled for a safety meeting uh today and it it got cancelled because we're trying to get some of the the 911 >> trying to get some feedback about the shared 911 training that we're just about complete with now. Well, we'll be discussing it tomorrow as administrators hopefully next week. >> Okay. >> Uh superintendent round table, we have our meeting tomorrow. Oh, no. Thursday. >> Thursday. Sorry. Thursday. >> Thank you. The state county uh school board last night uh Will Sidowitz and I attended the the state county school board's meeting. Uh it was pretty well attend I thought it was pretty well attended for the state county meeting. Uh a few things came up last night. They were talking
053about the non collegebound uh learner how they had put a task force together last year and that they're starting now just to come out with some of the results of that and it was very interesting on what and how they're going to try to get the vocational schools to work better with the the sending districts. it there seems to be um some clash between the two of course because of the sharing of funds uh that been going on and it it it was very interesting and it sounds to me like they they're trying to to identify there's so many young people out there that don't fit into the college band box and they're they're trying to make it so that um we're we're as school districts that we're putting together the most comprehensive education for
054our kids as possible. Uh they they also are putting together a task force for mental health that they're going to be working on for an entire year to to um because they feel that it's an area that is not addressed um as best as it can be. So it was that that's something that they're going to be doing it. They're starting I believe he said January they were going to he should have everybody in place and they're going to start um getting some feedback on that. Um the next meeting for the state school board is going to be November 29th uh which is a Thursday. I don't know if anybody can attend. I know I will not be able to because I'm not going to be here that day. >> Do you know where that's
055going to be? I think it's going to be where we were last night, which is called the farm. Yeah, it was so much easier getting there than the brownstone. It really It was much easier. >> I can go. >> Oh, good. I appreciate that. >> Good. >> What's the topic? >> Excuse me. >> What is the topic? Do we know? >> No, they did not say the topic last year. >> No, finances. That's the other thing I wanted to mention. Uh tomorrow uh Thursday night unfortunately it's the art auction here. There is a um workshop at Lakeland High School on finance and oh on advoc advocacy too. So it's a um being presented by the state county and I believe the speakers are from Wayne. I think that's what they were saying. They're from the
056Wayne school district or something for the >> Yeah, I'm pretty sure I'm pretty sure that the speakers were from Wayne. Uh so if anybody's interested in that, they could go online and they could sign up for that. >> And do you have one more note? Um Dr. Fines said that there is grant money in order to secure grant writers. that maybe it's something we can look into in the nearest future. That was let's open this up. >> I did give Barbara some information that I took away from last night. Uh New Jersey school boards the workshop is next week. Uh I know that I believe Mr. Gino's attending. Mr. Sidowitz. Um Mrs. O'Brien. No. No. Mrs. Dwire, myself. Mr. Drew, I didn't know if you were attending or not. >> No. Okay. So, I'm sure
057we'll be back with many informations of, you know, things. Uh, legislative, Mr. Yuber is not here. Technology, Mrs. Fritz. >> We just had one recently, so we we don't have one scheduled. >> Uh, Mr. S with the township and the board of education. >> We're going to have a meeting last week. We didn't. Uh, however, I would love to hear any input on ideas we'd like to discuss with the township. Um, I know that in the near future, our ESCO is going to be approved for the RFP. I totally slaughtered what I was trying to say with that. But what I'm trying to get at is there's things that we could work on together. And uh any input on any other ideas that you have will greatly benefit the township. So if anybody has anything
058they can let me know and um West Milford Education Foundation coming in now. Hi there. [Music] >> I got so quiet. >> Legislative. >> We're on class now. Oh. Uh uh aside from there haven't been any more meetings aside from trunk or treat uh where they're still taking donations for candy and things to give out at the Highlander uh family success center. There's no other report for that. any discussion. >> So the uh just update, it should be in the board members pages, right? The letter we received from state county tech. >> Yes. >> So a few months ago over the summer, we lost some state aid. Uh a lot of districts in the northwest part of the uh state did. uh Lakeland obviously most of all of Sussex County I believe some districts earned
059or received additional state aid in July County Tech was one of them. So this board uh worked with Barbara and I we crafted a letter since the SE tech budget had already been struck. Their staff had already been hired. They had uh maybe 5.5 million or $3.5 million extra in state aid. We made a we asked them to possibly refund that to taxpayers in Pay County with in the form of a tuition reduction. So uh they emailed us back saying uh no. >> So this is for board members. You'd be really surprised >> in that sense. I just said taking >> any other discussion on >> Yeah, I just I didn't see the the thing that was tabled from last meeting, the water easement. >> It's on the agenda. >> Yeah, it is on the
060agenda. >> Uh the land I saw the land associates. I didn't see the the easement. Okay. >> Oh, the the easement. No. >> Yeah. >> No, that was removed. >> Okay. >> Mhm. Uh when when you get the description, could we could you send it out to us? >> If we get the description, I'd be happy to share it with you. >> Thank you. >> Any other discussion? >> Well, uh for our capital projects list, perhaps uh the budget finance committee can start discussing costing and prioritizing the list before our budget season. >> Yeah, we have meetings. We have meetings set up beginning right either before or right after Thanksgiving with all department chairs obviously uh build a grounds to be part of that. >> Thank you. >> Anything else? >> Mr. Yuber. >> Oh,
061I'm sorry. >> No, >> I was looking at him and we're inter. >> If you say so >> your comment, not mine. >> No. Um, good. Thank you. I'd like to make a motion to uh delay start and payment on uh Maple Road roof uh until it is approved uh as a referendum for a bond. >> We need a second >> a second >> to discuss it. >> Any discussion? Since it wasn't in the minutes at the minimum, I'd like to get this out of the minutes. If we did this as a referendum instead of paying cash for it, instead of paying a million2 out of our budget right now, we would pay something like 180,000 in the first year. Um, we would do it at a relatively low interest rate. I assume people are
062watching this. Interest rates are going up. We'll never have an opportunity to get as low an interest rate again by not doing it as a bond. We've got to pay 1.2 million now instead of something in the neighborhood of 150,000 a year for 10 years. And we forego, and this is the really important part, over $600,000 reimbursement from the state of New Jersey. Now, had we done this originally, we would be voting on this in two weeks and we would start the roof project at about the same time. I've heard we don't like the systems. I understand we don't want to delay it, you know, at all, but frankly, it isn't worth giving up over a half a million dollars from the state of New Jersey. What was in the notes that you said, and
063rightfully so, maybe this should have been addressed before now. That's still not an excuse to throw away over half a million dollars. And frankly, if we' done it when we first knew about it, which was at least 8 years ago, would have been done the last time you were on the board. So, I think just saying that we should have done it before now is not a good excuse to waste a half a million dollars. So, I'd at least I know y'all are going to vote against it. You know, please feel free to tell everybody why you think it's a good idea for us to waste a half a million dollars. >> Any other discussion? >> Just a quick question, point uh clarification. Barbara, where is the roof right now in terms of the is
064the proposal already been is there? is it's been yes the contracts have been signed by the contractor. It's been awarded. >> So I would just have to say just as council for all the board I I would have to advise against any vote on this because if I understand the motion correctly you're voting to purposely violate the contract. Is that correct Mr. Drew? Is that purposely >> I didn't say that. I said delay start and payment >> is and but is the agreement date set in the agreement's been signed for executed? We'd be violating the contract if we did that. We'd be opening ourselves up to liability. So, I can't recommend that the board do that. >> I don't think we wait for the referendum. And I had thought about this fairly significantly. They might
065have a good argument to be made. Oh gosh, you can't do that. It's done in business all the time. You know, I don't want to start now. You know, I can start it when the snow's done or I can start it whenever. I can finish the bridge whenever I get around to it. so on and so forth. By the time we went ahead and did this anyhow, it will be started, done, paid for. They certainly don't have enough time to initiate and finish a suit. >> I understand that. But I just think the board of council, Mr. Drew, I can't I I have to advise you that to vote to purposely violate a contract opens the >> It's not a violation >> to delay it in the agreement. Right now, we have a start date
066and certain things. This is a public. This is public. They would have knowledge that we are purposely violating the agreement. So, I'm just saying I'm just advising that this vote not occur. >> Have a question. >> Mr. Jer, >> has council reviewed the agreement? >> I have not. >> It's what I mean. I don't have it in front of me >> right in front of Mrs. Vandike >> because I received it from your office. >> There's a cover letter. Is there any other discussion? >> There's a cover. >> When is it >> before the vote? Can I have a uh you know, review say the motion again? I want to understand what I'm about to vote on. I know how I'm voting and I know how this works. So, I just want to hear what
067the motion is one more time. So, maybe you put in the record twice. >> I I'm I I want I want to rephrase it. I hope I say you want to delay the payment of the roof. >> Start and payment of the roof until a referendum. >> How long do you think a referendum takes? >> Uh well, I do know had we done this originally, we'd be voting on it now. Now, we'll have to take make some effort and and and the answer is I don't know exactly how long it takes, but we've got to have bond council look at it and we've got to do various kinds of things. It could take 8 months or a year. I am 100% positive that the vendor would still want to do the roof if we delay.
068All I'm saying is just point of clarification. Section 512 um period covered by each application for painting shall be one calendar month depending on the last day of the month. Again, I understand the motion as I understand it would be in violation of this contract. >> What's the start date? >> Do that. >> It's just uh November 2nd. >> What's the penalty if we do that? >> If we violate that contract, >> we would be violating the agreement. We would be acting in bad faith. We would have entered an agreement where now we're saying that we're going to do something that we didn't agree to. >> It would be potential liability. We could be sued, >> of course. And by the time they got around to doing that, we'll pay for it and it'll be
069done. So your council is advising against us to vote on this. Is that what you're saying? >> Yes. >> Okay. Any other discussion on it? So we are voting on an you this is an amendment to not >> It's a new motion. All right. Brand new motion that I made. >> Okay. >> To delay the start and payment of the roof until we pass a re referendum to pay for it. Okay. So, we have a second on the floor for Mr. Yuger. Uh, let's call the question. Mrs. uh, Francis, roll call, please. >> Mr. Bailey, >> no. >> Mr. Sidowitz, >> no. >> Mr. Drew, >> yes. >> Mrs. Dwire, >> no. >> Mrs. Fritz, >> no. >> Mr. Gino, >> no. >> Miss O'Brien, >> no. >> Mr. Yuber, >> in view of our
070loss of state aid, >> I'm very conflicted, but I'll say yes, just because of the financial hardship that the district is in. >> Ms. Van Djk, >> I'm going to vote no. And again, we're talking that if we did this, we would be in violation of the contract. I think I think we would be acting in bad faith. So, I am voting no. Any other discuss? Any other discussion? >> Old business. There's no no other old business. I need a motion. >> Oh, no. I have one more. >> Okay. Go ahead. Don't forget the articles concerned to benefit the um hall of excellence and um we have a lot of work that's going to be presented by former student. So, it's very exciting. And I understand they're going to have some good or dirt. So,
071>> starts at 6:30, auctions at 7:30. >> 6:30. >> I need a motion and a second to close uh old business. >> Like to make a motion to close all business. >> All those in favor? >> I. Any oppose? New business. Any new business? If not, >> if not, I need a motion. Seeing none, like to close new business. Second. >> All those in favor? >> Any opposed? Public comment. Members of the public who have requested to speak prior to the meeting will be first with five minutes for each speaker for a period of 30 minutes and then time permitting. Other public comment limited to five minutes per speaker will be allowed. until the 30 minutes period transpires. All speakers are asked to give their full name, spell their last name, and provide their address.
072Speakers may not use the names of student during public comment. Anyone wishing to speak, come forward, please. Hey there, everyone. Jim, he was in New Jersey. >> Yeah. Um, first of all, thanks for passing the minutes for uh the October 3rd meeting. Um, listening to the discussion about the roof, um, had we been told about this that we had such a bad roof long ago, could have done it probably with the high school makin. But, uh, that's a that's a fight for another day, Mr. Drew. Um, I wanted to inform the board, most of you all know, um, actually all of you know because some of you used it when you were campaigning last year, um, that I had ethics charges filed against me by, um, school bus driver, Joe Marie Frederick's of the of
073the bus drivers association. Um, to date, we're close to $20,000 in my legal expenses for the way I voted. The judge, as some of you are aware, had not only dismissed the charges based on the evidence provided, but also dismissed the charges because I'm no longer on the board. but his first inclination was there's no factual basis for any of the charges. So, we're at $20,000 or close to it. Um, and they're appealing that. Why? Because they probably want to use it against me again this year in in this year's election. Now, I've always supported all of our staff in their proper performance of their duties when I was on the board. Always. I supported the bus drivers. supported staff. The fact that this is also being um funded by the NJA against me really
074makes me wonder what their motiv motivations are in this. And and I can only guess one thing. Um the the the charges were filed against me because and according to the certification made by one board member because they wanted me off negotiations. Um that's not the way we do things. It shouldn't never be the way we do things. But I just wanted to bring to all of your attention that we're we're approaching $20,000 on the on what are BS trumped up charges just done to politically assassinate me. And I and I find it horrendous that even some of the board members used that while they were campaigning last year. Um never done anything. Always supported them and that's the payback. I I would also and maybe your attorney can advise you as well. Um, you
075know, some of you had didn't vote on the NJ contract last week. Some did, some didn't. You abstained cuz your your wife's in there. Mrs. Van Dyke, you've got family members in the district that are in there, so you properly abstained. But I also want to let you guys know when you vote on the bill list, you're voting for their health benefits. That's an ethics violation and I think you guys should be well informed that that should be pulled out or you guys make the mention of it that uh you know I'm not paying for the I vote no on the health benefits because you just opened yourselves up to to uh ethics charges. Now that's something that's got teeth. with the way I voted has teeth. No, but they're appealing it and it's going
076to cost this district more money. So, I I just wanted you all to know that and I and I I want to thank Mrs. uh Dwire for for making that certification when uh this all came out. I appreciate that, Terry. And uh you guys got to take care of of what you're voting on because it's uh you health benefits or the union or family members that are in the union in another district that's a problem too. So um should be aware of what you're doing. Any other people wishing to speak? >> Resident has asked me to speak on their behalf. >> Excuse me. >> A resident has asked me to speak on their behalf. >> Get up there. >> We're having different things tonight. >> I'm speaking on beha on behalf of Adoran Nonus 74
077Ridge Road. Dear Dr. Anamone, I am writing this letter as a concerned citizen and taxpayer of West Milford. I believe in this town and in our school system. I have lived in West Milford for 30 years. I have five children who attended Westbrook School, Makipin Middle School, and West Milford High School. All my children received a good education allowing them to apply and be accepted to the colleges of their choice and graduate with bachelor degrees or higher. Recently, it has come to my attention that at least 60 West Milford students are attending PCTI and a percentage more are enrolled in Catholic high schools or other private schools. As a parent, it makes sense to place my children in a school outside the district with a higher academic rating. This produces a sad loss of resources.
078I am very aware that drugs are a major problem in schools nationwide. We are not unique in this experience. Schools should not diagnose students, but can we partner with our West Milford Health Department for an awareness program? Are we as citizens of West Milford attempting an awareness program to educate all parents, especially those who encourage young children to take drugs for hyperactivity about the negative effects of making this decision? We should be responsible for educating parents in the long-term effects and long-term mindset of prescription drug usage. This brings up the issues of responsibility and accountability. First, I believe the students are responsible for attending classes, learning, understanding, and attempting to master the classwork. They are also responsible for positively participating in the social aspect of school. The students are accountable to their teachers for handing
079in required assignments and for behaving respectfully toward their teachers and fellow students. Second, the teachers are responsible for teaching and explaining subject matter while maintaining a safe classroom environment. A teacher should recognize when students need help across the learning spectrum. The teachers are accountable to their principal to ensure that New Jersey state curriculum standards are met for their grade level. The teachers are accountable to their students to make sure everyone understands the concept being taught and that help is available. Teachers are accountable to their students to provide sufficient knowledge to move on to the next grade level confidently. Third, the principles are responsible for providing a safe, supportive learning environment for both staff and students. Principles are responsible for leading their teachers in the direction of excellence in education and the social aspects of the
080classroom. The principles are responsible to their students for providing excellent teachers known for their teaching methods and concern for their students. The principles are accountable to the superintendent for running a safe, supportive school and that provides excellence in education which is measured by the state rating system. The superintendent is responsible for assuring all our schools provide a safe, supportive learning environment. He is responsible to ensure our schools correctly follow New Jersey state mandated curriculum. The superintendent is responsible for our school district adhering to laws governing our district. He is responsible for requiring our schools to provide excellence in education. The superintendent is accountable to the board of education to ensure all board policies are followed and to report any educational needs to them. He is accountable to Westmill for taxpayers, citizens, and especially the students
081to assure the town that our schools offer safe learning environments while providing an excellent education. The buck stops at this office. I recently checked the local school ratings of West Milford, Ringwood, Kennelan, and Jefferson, our neighboring towns using niche. The results are listed below. All schools listed a student toteer ratio of 12 to1. Kennalan School District an overall rating of A. Jefferson Township School District an overall rating of B. Ringwood School District overall rating of B+. West Mford Township School District overall rating of C++. PCTI overall rating of A. Why are we accepting less than ED excellence from our students, teachers, and principles? Why are our neighboring school districts rated higher than ours? Are we meeting with these neighboring districts to find out what they're doing differently? I work at PA County Community College and
082we are admitting West Milford High School students that were in a college prep program. They graduated with New Jersey State High School degrees. Many of these students need remediation in English and especially in math. How does West Milford explain the graduation of students who need remediation in English and math? In order for our college to maintain its Middle States approval status, we are mandated to work in a constant state of assessment. We look at how we deliver education and services, survey our staff and students, assess and evaluate our practices, make changes towards improvement, re-evaluate and reassess. This practice has made us a leader among New Jersey community colleges through slow but progressive change. Maybe West Milford needs to incorporate a practice of assessing. We could begin with ser surveying our high school students. After all,
083it is their education. Almost done. We could begin by choosing to evaluate some English classes and math classes since this is where remediation is indicated. I have attached one of our surveys for you to view. We know >> how many pages. >> I'm going to skip right to the end. >> Truth. >> Sorry about that. Almost every year we are asked to vote on an increase in school taxes. My taxes have almost tripled since I moved to West Milford due to high school taxes. When do we as taxpayers get to see an increase towards higher ratings and ac academic excellence in our schools? Last statement. I believe in West the West Milford community and I believe that we can rise above our new reputation and low ratings. People should want their children to attend our
084schools because West Milford can guarantee an excellent safe education as proven by state testing scores. We need to bring West Milford back to a great safe learning community with excellent academic ratings and it must begin with you. >> Any other people wishing to proceed? Seeing none like to close public comments. Need a second. All those in favor. We need a motion and a second for executive session. At 8:45 p.m., I'd like to make a motion to go through executive sessions for the purpose of discussing personnel appointments, resignations, current litigation matters, special education matters, fibs, and learning left attorney session privilege for confidentiality. No more ever. >> Second. >> All those in favor? I. >> Any opposed? >> We will be back. That's upon us. >> That's right. >> I'd like to call the meeting back
085to order. Mrs. Francisco, you can roll, please. Mr. Bailey, Mr. Sidowitz, Mr. Drew >> here, >> Mrs. Dwire >> here, >> Mr. Gino >> here, >> Mrs. Fritz >> here, >> Mr. Yuber >> here, >> Mrs. O'Brien >> here, >> Mrs. Van Dyk >> here. >> Okay.
