Thank you again. Yeah. Thank you so much. So recently over uh recently we have held orientation meetings with Master Sergeant Mareski
and Mr. Zuzio. The purpose of these meetings is to help acclimate them to the district, the board of education and the roles that they serve on the board. Thank you to Mr. Figs for taking time out of his day to participate in the meeting with Mr. Zuzio. We look certainly congratulations on on being
sworn in and we certainly looking forward to working with both of you and excited to have you join the board. Over the past several weeks, we have launched the strategic plan thought exchange uh to gather information from the staff, the students, and the parents as we begin to develop uh the process to
develop our strategic plan. If you haven't completed the thought exchange, you can access links in from the principal's bulletin, the district website, and our various social media accounts. I will share the link in to the board in my in my update later this week. If you have already participated
in the exchange, you can use the same link to to rate the responses of the other that the other people have submitted. This allows us to not only obtain feedback from the participants, but also allows us to see how people feel about what other people have submitted. The thought exchange will
remain open until later this month. This fall we have is this fall has been filled with great excitement and a significant accomplishment from our fall from our our fall high school sports teams. Many of our teams have moved past the first round of the playoffs. On
Friday, our girls soccer team won the sectional championship and are scheduled and is scheduled to play Shaunie in the state semifinals on Wednesday, November 19th at 300 p.m. If any board member is interested in attending, please let me know and and we will certainly make
arrangements for you. Good luck to the team. We certainly wish you the best of luck. And lastly, um, in last week, last week, we started the, uh, to erect the steel for the auditorium project until approximately November 30th, the main
parking lot entrance will be closed to traffic from 9:30 a.m. until 3:30 p.m. Those visiting during this time should enter and exit through the bus lot driveway and use the main parking lot entrance across from the softball field. The main office entrance will still be
opened uh during uh and accessible during this time. And that concludes my report. Any questions? >> Thank you, Dr. Zuckermanman. Uh Mrs. Williams, if you please give your BA report.
So, I'd just like to echo um Dr. Zuckermanman's welcome to Mr. Zuzio and Master Sergeant Mareski. Um, congrats and we looking forward to working with you. Um, also we received the unofficial election results. Um, Mrs. Bond, Mr. Figs, and Mr. Zimmer were all reelected
for another term. So, congratulations on that. Um, in October, I was able to attend the New Jersey School Boards Association workshop where I attended a lot of, um, individual sessions that talked about budget planning, um, health benefits and
so um, I appreciate that opportunity to go. Um, it was very beneficial and I think that the board members that attended would say the same. Um, in December, just a reminder that we're going to take the board photo before the December 8th meeting. So, if you could arrive arrive a little bit
early for your photo. Uh, we discussed about impact aid last month. Um, the federal government is reopened and we um have heard that the NHF staff has returned back to the office. However, there will be a little
bit of a delay for us to start receiving payments again as everything gets up and running. Um, we are still collecting impact aid surveys. We have less than 500 outstanding. Um so we are continuing to pursue um those people that have it
outstanding and just a reminder of the importance it um really helps with our federal funding that we received for the federal government. So um we really appreciate everyone's attention to that. Uh a brief report about the audit. The
audit has been slightly delayed. Um, all the work has been done here, but due to the federal shutdown, um, there are some pieces for federal compliance that are not be able to be completed yet. Um, I expect to have some more information in the next couple days on how the state is going to handle that. So, our audit is
about 99% done. Um, the auditor will present to the December 8th um, finance committee meeting. Um, just the status of our 2425 audit. Budget development. um it is time to start building our 2627 budget. And so we're going to meet with the
administrators and those um throughout the district that um are take part in building the budget. Um November 20th is our budget kickoff meeting. Um our ASSA report and our DRTS report are two important reports that help in um
maintaining funds for the district and those reports um are underway as well. Um as Dr. As Zuckermanman mentioned, the auditorium construction is progressing really well. It's exciting to see steel on site. Um the track and turf um is
pretty much wrapped up. We have a punch list, but the fields are open and the track is open and they are being utilized. Um Mr. McKe shared some great pictures that you can see in my um report of all the exciting stuff that's happening around the facility. That's
it. Thank you. Any uh comments or questions? >> Um speaking of the turf field, I know one of the things we talked about briefly is that what's been great is that the soccer the girls soccer team in their playoffs have been able to play on that new turf field. Um as opposed to
having to play on the grass fields, they've been able to ut utilize that field right away. So having that new turf field is already benefiting the students in the athletics departments. What's going to be the uh excuse me location of Wednesday's game? Is it It's
at Shauny. >> It's at Shauny. They they had even though it's a similar the same record, they had more powerpoints. >> Okay. Thank you. >> Unfortunately. >> All right. Uh Dr. Karns, if you'd like to give your middle school report. Thank you, Mr. Figs. Good evening,
members of the board. Provide just a couple highlights. You have my written copy of the middle school board report. Couple things, probably still a little bit Dr. McCann's Thunder here, but I just want to give a shout out to the marching band. Uh the marching band is one of the few clubs and activities that has middle school and high school
students involved in it. And you know, they have been out on the fields in like late June. They started practice. You know, it's like like football team two days out there in the hot getting ready to go. And just a couple highlights. Um they came in first place at the North Brunswick uh competition and again first
place at the Senica competition and a variety of other awards at various other competitions they've done. So they've really represented our school well. And we have middle school students that are are full members as as a part of the color guard and as part of the u the actual marching band. I want to give a shout out to our um our my assistant
principal Sue Greater and our faculty and our students. Just this past week, we um administered the the field test for the NJSLA- A. Um it's a new standardized test that the state required us to to field test for all of our our students in the middle school. And like any new
platform, lots of headaches, lots of twists and turns, but you know, their hard work, our our faculty and students, flexibility. I thought it went went relatively smoothly and we have that that experience that that's going to serve us well when we take the test for real in the spring. Couple other things
perhaps you saw are anchored for life students. They were middle school students and high school students that participated. We set up a flag of fields out here at the front of the high school in honor of Veterans Day. So that was up at installation was in place uh for November 11th and again was there for about a week. We just took it down this this evening. Um this past week we had a
health curriculum meeting for um parents on the on the 12th. Parents who are had questions about the the health curriculum. I think it's about the fourth year that we've been offering this meeting. I'm grateful to uh Mr. Ravity, one of our PE teachers, and Mr. Cataline, the uh supervisor for the PE department for coming out and uh doing a
presentation for the parents and answering any questions that they had. Um, also in my report, you'll see we're getting ready for our no place um annual uh pledge signing and they did a real nice job with the with the mural. There's a picture there in my uh report. They the uh keys to respect was the
theme and it looks like keys and it's pretty pretty cool how they uh they did that. Thank goodness for projectors and their ability to trace that and it came out really well and we're looking forward to doing that. And then finally, just want to give a a shout out to our um our thespians. They are going to bring to the stage a play called Camp
Twilight, which is kind of a a a spoof sort of on the Twilight series. Um and that's going to be December 5th and 6th um in the middle school uh cafeteria. So if you're interested, come on out and support our our young actors as they uh they bring that story to our stage. Any questions for me in terms of the middle
school and different items in the report? >> I was uh curious. I know uh last year that you guys did the parent teacher conferences on the day off to use the whole day, but I know the daytime response wasn't as much this year. I saw you did kind of morning meetings, virtual and evenings. Did you find that
it seemed that parents maybe were more more receptive to the daytime virtual and evening in persons or it it's hard to draw just a hard and fast conclusion? And I was talking to my my team leaders today and one of them said my inerson one were all booked and my my virtual were real um like spotty. But then somebody else said mine were the exact
opposite. I didn't have a lot of um in person but my all my virtuals were were filled. And in that that survey I think Dr. Zuckerman put out with regards to um you know the calendar. It was interesting. It was definitely more people like the in person but a lot of people like the virtual too. So it it no
nobody wants to give us a hard and fast you know do this and we'll we'll be there. There's lots of different opinions, but I think it's good. We did have a nice steady turnout. Obviously, I don't see who's coming in for the virtual ones, but when we had the inperson ones in the morning on the 4th and when we had the inperson ones on the evening on the 12th, you know, a steady
um arrival of parents going through and I think it's good for them to, you know, talk to our teachers, see them face to face, hear how they're working with their kids. I think that's a good a good thing whether those are the parents that we really really need to see or not, I think it's still good for us to to make that interaction with community. >> Absolutely. Thank you. Any other
questions? >> All right. Thank you, Dr. Appreciate it. >> Dr. McCann, if you'd like to give your high school principal report, please. >> Good evening. The beauty of going after Yousef and Dr. Zuckermanman and Dr. Karns, as they said, most of the highlights. So, I'm going to try to come up with what what we have left to
highlight. Um, a few things. So, on um October 24th, it was PSAT day and pep rally day and the weekend of homecoming. And it was a really great day. We had kids who worked really hard on the PSAT. Um for seniors who weren't taking the PSAT, we ran an alumni panel. Um and one of our counselors worked really hard to
bring in alumni both from Hall of Fame um folks that have been inducted as well as some other alumni to talk to them about just kind of life and their experiences. Um when we felt like that went really well. Um we had somebody come in and talk about cyber bullying and issues and the interwebs and how to make sure our freshmen are not putting
themselves out there in a way that could be compromising to them as uh later in life. Um and we felt like that went really well as well. Um, and that was uh the first of a number of things that we did to then kick off uh the pep rally and homecoming weekend, which we thought was really great. You saw as you came in probably the banners that each grade
level makes a different banner for the season that they choose as their theme. Um, and we were really excited to see so many students um interested in both the decorating and we had over 800 students attend the dance. So, that was really cool as well. 800. Um, we also did NJPA
and NJSLA testing. um it is uh rife for improvement. Um but I think there were a lot of things that we learned from the platforms that are going to be helpful for us when it really does count in the spring. So we're grateful for at least that component of the test. Um we had a nice turnout at parent teacher conferences in the evening. I think to
your question, the day is a little bit choppier in high school, I think. Um but I think we had a steady stream of folks coming and going at night, which was nice to see. Um, I left out, you'll notice in my report, there's tons of things about clubs, but I didn't want to jinx any sports teams because everybody was still playing, so I didn't include them. Um, so in addition to, we've heard girls
soccer is still playing. Um, we had a lot of teams make it to the semi-final game, and I think that's important to point out because it means they had to win in at least one other round, right? So, we saw the girls volleyball team advance to the second round, the boys soccer team, fields hockey, football. Uh, that's something that doesn't always happen and it certainly doesn't happen in every school. And so, to see that happen in addition to cross country
winning their division, tennis making it to the playoffs, really a ton of achievement across the board. So, we're really excited for all of our athletes. They did a nice job. Um, in addition to highlight athletes even more, we have four division one students that officially signed last week and we had a ceremony for them and we were able to honor them in a way that we haven't done
exactly like that in the past. Um, so we'll still highlight our division 2 and three athletes later in the year, those that are signing off for those schools. But I do think it's a really prestigious honor to be a division one athlete signing on for that. Um, and so they were able to bring their families and take some pictures and it was a really nice experience.
Um, let's see. Oh, uh, last but not least, um, Fall Play is coming this weekend. So, it's tech week, and there's a lot of chaos happening right on the other side of these walls in the auditorium. Um, but we are putting on Peter and the Starcatcher, which is the prequel to Peter Pan. Um, so if you're interested, we're happy to have you. Friday night, 7 p.m. Saturday, there's
shows 2 p.m. and 7 p.m., and then Sunday, matinea at 2. Um, and it's going to be a great time, I think. Any questions about any of the things? >> Yeah, I had a couple questions. First of all, the FFA program is like crushing it. like all the activities that they
do. It's just so impressive and I know how much it takes to to organize those field trips. So, hats off to the teachers and the adviserss just providing those opportunities for the students. >> Um during the um assemblies, uh do the
students have opportunities to ask the panelists questions and is there anything that you notice that you want to share with the board? >> Yeah, so so Mr. Moss solicits questions from the students in advance and gives them to the panelists so they know there's at least a decent amount of things coming. Um, and we worked really hard this year to try to find folks that
were from a bunch of different facets of life. I think last year we're really looking for like a military connection and we had somebody who was inducted into our Hall of Fame that had a military affiliation. Um, we had somebody who's a farmer um in the local community who was an alumni. So, we were able to talk the agriculture component. So, I think we did a nice job this year in letting them ask questions outside of
just the college spectrum, but also like kind of many different walks of life and how they got there. And I think the students are always just really like respectful and interested to hear um what the alumni have to say which I'm always excited for. Um so we did we had about uh 10 or 12 questions submitted in advance and then we had a little bit extra time where other kids could could ask things.
>> Do do you foresee yourself doing that again next year? Passively. >> The goal is to do it forever. So we started last year. It went well. Um and I think one of the big pushes for Hall of Fame was how do we highlight all the really amazing things that were of the folks who were inducting into Hall of Fame. And so three of our folks who came back this year were people that have
been inducted. Um, we try to always include a teacher to kind of get their perspective of like, I went here and now I teach here. Um, I think that's been nice for kids to see also. >> Yeah. And then my final question, forgive my ignorance, the esports, they're like they're going to compete against other schools. Is this like a this is like the real like a real deal
thing? >> So, yeah. So, they already have been competing against tons of other schools. I actually have in the queue them asking about getting varsity letters in the same way that other sports teams do because that's now a thing that's happening, right? There's a proclamation from the state that says you can earn a varsity letter because they are competing against so many other outside schools.
>> So, do they have to travel to the other schools or do they sit in that room and they compete against the other schools? It's not like they get on a bus and they have to go to like >> I think it's a little bit of both, right? So, I think there's definitely competitions that are like head-to-head but in the room, but I do know there are competitions you can like go to depending on the games you're playing.
Some of the competitions are some of the competitions uh take place mostly on the weekends, but these students have just as much of an ability to earn a college scholarship as any athlete does. >> And they practice four to five days a week until 5:15. They're taking the late bus home, so it's like just the same level of commitment as what you see a
lot of the sports >> big money. >> Yeah. >> Like my son's already won like a grand and he's not even on the esports team. So you can you can make good money doing it and we're lucky to have that. in that room showed us when we did the trip that that's top-notch. We have legit stuff in
that. >> Yeah. >> Any other questions? >> One other thing I just want to add that that neither of us uh at least I didn't remember to to include. Uh Mr. Criggliano um a couple weeks ago did a breakfast uh what he calls the captain's
breakfast which is something that he brought that um to us. Mr. Crialano Corriano is our new athletic director. It's for any cap captain of any of of our sports teams. Um was invited down and they just had breakfast and they were just thank for being leaders in in
the district and kind of taking the time to kind of do the above and beyond um to be able to support their their programs. So I thought that was a real nice thing. >> Yes. Yep. >> Okay. Awesome. Thank you folks. >> Thank you, Dr. Mac.
All right. Uh item 2.05 is consent agenda item for the approval of the HIP reports. Item 2.06 is consent agenda item for approval of the superintendent reports. Um at this time, I believe we have a couple committee reports to go over. Um let's see. Uh Laura would like
to give the curriculum committee meeting from October. >> Yes. So we met on October 6th and uh the meeting started with an update from uh Steve Lear, technology director and he provided an update to the committee on the cooperative that we have to provide
technology to five other districts in addition to some of the technology updates that were implemented over the last year. He also shared out about the technology available in the classrooms and the school including instructional safety and security. He also shared about the work that has
been done to support cyber security here at Northern and the cameras and technology that were recently installed on a number of our school buses. Next was an update on cell phones. Dr. McCann and Dr. Karns provided an update
on the use of cell phones in the high school and the middle school. Dr. McCann shared how the revisions to the cell phone policy during instruction are being received and implemented. Anecdotal data includes that students are experiencing few fewer distractions
during the school day which is good news. Uh next we talked about uh course planning um discussing minimum and maximum class sizes and the 2526 and looking ahead sort of forecasting. So during um the 2025 2026 school year we
used a minimum and maximum class sizes when developing the schedules. While we made good progress in making sure the class size the classes have an appropriate amount of students in the classes, there is an ongoing focus to maximize course offerings while also
being fiscally responsible in the allocation of staff. Um, next was the academic advisory council updates. All right. Due to time constraints, this item was not reviewed during the meeting, but the district's academic advisory committee was
reorganized into four subcommittee working groups. Uh those would be artificial intelligence, grading practices, observation instrument um processing uh process rather and then the professional development. This change is providing more focused discussions and opportunity for more
productive meetings and work sessions. So we look forward to updates on that. The next one um is the strategic plan update. Dr. Zuckermanman shared the status of the roll out of the thought exchange as he spoke of earlier to gather community input regarding the development of the next strategic plan.
The survey will launch in November and the action plan development is anticipated to be completed all right by X. You want to fill that in? >> Sure. Um it's anticipated that we begin to have drafts of the strategic plan for
December. We'll obviously flush that through several of our committee meetings and then ultimately look to provide feedback to the to the staff in January, February. >> Thank you. All right. And then next was the curricular connection with our
auditorium project which is a hot topic and exciting discussion. Uh this topic will be an ongoing dialogue as the program of studies for the future progresses and auditorium project continues. Uh there was also a state assessment data presentation. Dr.
Stellar and the director spoke with the committee about the data that is correlated with the New Jersey student learning assessments in math, science, and English language arts and the dynamic learning map. During the conversations, they discussed the scores the students received on the state assessment, compared the course results
over a period of time, and the cohort performance, meaning the same group of students over a period of time. The group also discussed the possible reasons for growth and strategies for improvement. Next is the media center resources. The group discussed the books purchased for
the library and the procedures to challenge a book as well as the purpose of these books. The library books are available for the students to voluntarily select the books of their choice for their independent novels. These books are not chosen by the teachers and are not used for the whole
class instruction. And our next meeting date will be all right December section uh December 2nd, excuse me. And that will be a virtual meeting. Any questions? >> So, I've sort of had a question. I thought I was going to be asking it later on in the meeting, but when you
just talked about the library books, were you talking about the creation of the list that we purchased those books and where did that where did you say that list comes from? So the the students come up with a list and the librarian my understanding is that the librarian uh receives the
request from the students and that's looked over by the librarian which is then submitted to the curriculum director for review and and then the board make the approval on that. >> Students often make suggestions for the types of >> Well, I'm not opposed to that. >> No. Yeah. No, I'm just saying it's they don't ne they may not say I want this
book. Can we get a book on this topic? So somebody suggested Karl Marx's communist manifesto. >> There's also fine the librarian associ like librarians are part of associations that have like recommended books for to be included included in school libraries and they
reference that list for they also take requests. It's not just student requests. They're I I don't know what the organization is that that that provides that list. But there is an organization that librarians from all schools all over use that provides recommended book editions or books for
libraries and they review those lists and come up with ones that maybe we don't have similar topics for. That's where the bulk of the list comes from. The requests are in addition to that. So it's not just requests all. >> Okay. And then along those same lines, do we make it a practice to encourage
our students to get library cards and participate in the library in the Burlington County Library? That is part of the the um our librarians discuss in depth about not only the resources that we have as a district um EPCO host and
so on but they also talk extensively about the resources that are available at the li the public libraries or or college libraries and and so on and encourage them to kind of look to you use those resources as well. The challenge is now the kids can get the majority of the things online and then
so they don't have as much of a need to obviously attend the physical library. >> Also, uh I want to say the NHS is also providing like some points they can get if they volunteer at uh at some libraries. So students see that and they become like more in touch with some libraries across uh council as well.
>> All right. Thank you. It may be discussed by the librarians, but I know I use the Libby library app and have constant Kindle books and audiobooks on my phone and like I don't know kids everything's on the internet, but like you can access it in that way. So I'd make sure they realize that there
are different there's Libby is a common one and there's another one that's very common but yeah I mean you can almost get any book at your fingertips or audio book at your fingertips. >> Yeah. And if they don't have it at the time you just request the book and a lot of times they're not going to buy it but often they do. I get notices all the
time that, you know, all of a sudden a book that I wanted is there because they went out and bought it. >> Laura, I I have a question on a different topic. Um, you mentioned that they were talking about the cell phone policies, etc. Do we know do we include
the watches in the policy as well since they can act exactly like the phones? >> Off the top of my head, I mean, Dr. Zuckermanman or Dr. McCann, do you want to comment on that? >> So, our students um they're asked to they are not asked to put their watches
away um during the class. I I don't it at least it hasn't been brought to my attention that the watches are are causing that much the distraction that the phones did. Um so the the phones being removed um from the class during the instructional time
has allowed the focus to remain on the instruction. Okay. >> I I can ask questions about the watch. I it hasn't been brought to my attention that that is a distraction. Then we can get into the meta glasses and there's many other things that we can kind of like it's a rabbit hole that >> Yeah, I just was curious if it was
brought up or not. >> I have a I have a question along those lines. Are the kids allowed to have their own MacBooks at school or they have to use a Chromebook? >> I forget. Dr. Are students allowed to bring their own devices? I know since we prior and
in and the time I'm remembering is before we provided the Chromebooks then the kids can I believe they can still bring their own they cannot bring their own device >> they cannot >> so they can't have those okay yeah because they could everything that's on your watch or your phone goes those to your
MacBook, too. So, if they're able to use those, they can. Okay. >> All right. Um, any other questions for the curriculum committee meeting? >> All right. Um, Mrs. Janice, if you'd like to do the community relations
meeting from October, >> there another committees that can perform this. >> Sure. I um I'm just going to give a a or Mr. Mr. Zimmer if you'd like to a brief uh just small update. We had buildings, grounds, finance, transportation tonight. Um obviously the minutes are
informed and and whatnot, but I did want to just kind of provide a small update to the board. Um budgetary wise it's a difficult year. Um we had the um uh consultant we use for insurance come in to give us a brief like
you know doom and gloom estimate. Um the state last year update updated uh medical programs 25 to 33% and prescriptions by 58%. >> Yep. Um our numbers are the estimate the numbers he's telling us to use are not
that um bleak. It it's still bad, but it's 18% for medical, 10% for dental, and 25% for prescription. Um which is a significant potential impact to our budget. Um it's around 1.8 million. You know, as you recall, last year we had 1
million which was dramatic and we managed we had a bump in state impact aid which kind of covered us. Um we a have to hope for that impact date to remain but we also have this upcoming thing. Um so we do have another buildings grounds finance transportation meeting before the December meeting. Um
if anyone who's not on the committee wants any more information or has any things they want discussed at that meeting please feel free to like reach out to any of us who are on the board. Mrs. Williams on the committee Mr. Williams Dr. Zuckerman. Um, obviously it's we're it's early into the the budget planning phase, but I just
thought it was valuable to give you guys a brief update that it's it's a rough uh forecast at this point, so to speak, >> right? And the two big drivers were higher claims and the explosive growth of GLP1s for non diabetes use.
Even just going further just with the offer if anybody wanted to come in and and even see the presentation that we talked about. Happy to kind of go over that with anybody who was not on that committee. >> Can I can I just share a thought? I I when I was at the New Jersey school
board's convention um I attended a session on governance and one thing that might be helpful and to think about as a full board you know moving forward as a as a good practice is when there is a committee meeting um to share the agenda out with the entire board so we kind of
just see what's being discussed um because I think that might be helpful we could reach out with any questions if you know any one of us has received any concerns or question from our constituents then we can then funnel that to the the um uh the committee chair um to discuss that if that there's
room for that. >> So Laura, I think I remember saying like I'm not on the personnel committee, but I believe I don't think I am. >> They're in Dr. Zuckermanmen's reports. So like if you go to report agenda, >> I but I know there there's committees that I'm not on that I'm pretty sure
that I see the agendas on them. So they're buried in the reports. Maybe maybe maybe it should be a different way to get it out there to make sure that Yeah. I was just thinking that, you know, and and this is what was discussed as like um this is a one of the districts that presented um uh at the
school board's convention. They just share they whenever there's a a committee meeting, the entire board gets the agenda even though not every member sits on that committee prior to the meeting. All right? And then also it's reported out on their, you know, uh
reports as well for their board meetings. >> I I and I'm not saying we can't do it differently. I mean, I include the the agendas for the upcoming meetings in in the superintendent report. They're typically right in the beginning and then below that are the minutes. So then people get to see not only the the
minutes but then the the agendas for that month but also the minutes for the following month as well. Uh Laura, if I can kind of piggyback on that, you know, uh my prior board experience, um we actually used to use Google Drive and all the committee document there would
be a folder, you know, so there'd be a folder structure that existed for say this meeting and in that would be um folders for each committee and each committee would have its agenda in that folder and also have supporting documents and every board member had access to view that. And maybe that's
kind of a way that we we'd handle this, right? is that we make those things available to everybody in a standard monthly sort of practice so that way everybody's got those documents and have those agendas and ultimately minutes will probably end up in those folders as well. So maybe that's something we
discuss maybe in some other sort of committee how we can make that a little bit more accessible because I'd love to see that as well. Right. to your point be nice to know what's going on in the details in those committees to go back to that either committee chair or committee member and say hey can you ask these questions or you know maybe take
it in this direction so >> yes thank you um yeah I mean that's easily I know we started trying to pass them out more and you know I peppered Dr. recommend yesterday with questions on the agendas. I kind of caught him off guard. He's like, "That's not on the board agenda." I'm like, "No, committee agendas." So, feel free to ask away. Um,
but yeah, I'm sure that Google Drive uh is definitely something we can look into. Um, and with that, um, Mrs. Janice, if you read your community relations committee report, please. >> Thank you for your patience. All right. So, we had a full community relations um meeting. Uh, first, Dr. Zuckermanman
provided us with uh the strategic planning update. Um we previewed the survey which will drive the strategic planning project as well as the anticipated focus on academics, financial and student preparation for soft skills. Uh we discussed the uh 2026
2027 school calendar as we developed the calendar draft uh discussing uh discussion regarding a survey of the community to determine if there are religious holidays that would be appreciated by our community. uh any
potential additions would be in place of other days off and or be explained uh that they would uh extend the school year. Days under review include uh freshman orientation, the election day
conferences, and Veterans Day. Um uh Dr. Zuckerman and Miss Williams have been conducting meetings with the township administrators. Some of these discussions are identifying potential areas uh for shared services such as
transportation depot for fuel for emergency vehicles. In place of a previously discussed assistant athletic director, a community scheduler will be proposed as the point of contact for all organizations. The decision between maintaining or closing
the track to the community uh was debated. Additional signage with parameters will be added to protect the district investment. Usage will be re-examined if there are future concerns. Uh measles in anticipation of upcoming
outbreaks, particularly among the unvaccinated, the district should consider requesting staff to produce vaccination records, receive boosters, or have a titter to determine immunity levels. The DO cautions that an outbreak
is imminent given the percentage of unvaccinated individuals. The exclusion period is quite lengthy which would impact instruction. Uh let's see. Uh the district website should be the hub of all pertinent
information to improve the website. The sites for the major offices in the district are being revamped to include pictures of personnel. And finally, the status of the Hall of Fame selection process was discussed >> um on the so on I did fill out the
calendar survey and one of the things and I think it ties into the the sending district discussions. One of the things I hear a lot from community members is why the sending district's calendars are different than ours. So as we're talking to them, is there a way that we can
consolidate? Like Mansfield is literally on the same campus and you have different and so >> it's very strange to me. >> Great point. So I began discussing our um district calendar for the 26 27th school year with the sending districts in September.
>> Um sharing with them what I was thinking, sharing with them uh just some some various thoughts. They are their own individual district. So we can dictate to them what schedule they use. However, we are trying to align professional development days and some other days one. So we can also share
resources. >> Yeah. >> Um or or to be able to kind of help with that. But some of them have beliefs on like for example, let's take Veterans Day. Believe two of the sending districts were actually three of the sending juristic one sent two sending
districts had um staff development days. two were in session and one was completely closed. >> So I mean each community views that a little bit differently. So it's tough to have the same exact but I mean we are I am trying to work to to better align them.
>> Yeah I think each district has different requirements in terms number of days number of teaching days as well. Right. So >> yeah, I also Yeah, I know teacher contacts make a big difference because I know in North Hover like our school elementary went till June 25th last
year. It was a week longer than than here because the way they have the contract built and the way the teachers can request half day professional developments afterward that kind of thing. So it that's also part of it is how the what they can demand what their teachers unions >> or contracts can have them demand and
therefore they don't always have the say. >> Okay. >> But yes I will no absolutely I will continue to work with them to try to align them the best we can. Uh one other just if I can follow up on something with the measles knockwood
there is no issue that that we currently have. We were really having discussions to be proactive should something take place at least that we've begun conversations about things that we can do as a district. >> Kids have to be vaccinated to enroll or No. >> No ma'am. >> Yeah.
>> Uh not for for religious exemption is the reason why why they do not have to provide vaccination records. >> That's the only exemption though, right? Is religious. There's no other exemptions that correct aware of >> and our district follows a very similar
number to what the state average is. So, right. Uh, any other questions for the community relations? >> All right. Uh, we'll move on to delegate reports. Uh, Mr. Bucks, do you have any updates on NJSBA? >> Uh, I have a brief update. There is going to be delegate assembly this
weekend. Um there are uh several resolutions that are on the agenda. I have not that just went out on Friday. I've not had a chance to review those yet. They'll be reviewing them this week so that um we can discuss them at the delegate assembly. Uh there will also be
um there's a recommendation from the nominating committee to uh to vote on a new president to replace the president that resigned. I think that was my last update, the last meeting I was present. Um, so that is the meat of what is on
the agenda for the delegate assembly this weekend. >> That's it. >> All right. Thank you, Mr. Mutz. Uh, Mr. Chairman, do you have any updates from PCSBA? >> Thursday is our next meeting. So, next meeting I'll have an update.
>> All right. Um, >> pigs, really quick, if I ask a question. Did anybody else um other than myself as a delegate get an update from um New Jersey School Board Association about the delegate assembly? Because I've kind of heard from other districts that some people that were not the delegate actually got notified. Um would have
been from Carl Tans uh I always butcher his last name. Tansley Tansky. I know I've seen emails, but I and I've seen the delegate on the schedule, but I don't know that I got a specific I have to look to see if it's just a coincidence that I saw emails from him
versus emails, but then again, I'm not sure if board presidents get put on a list different either. I'd have to look. >> I was just curious because I said I had heard from some other districts that they had got notification they weren't delegates, so I wasn't sure what the audience was of how they um they
communicated. Thank you. Uh I received an email report of the resolution subcommittee. >> Yeah, I received that on Friday. >> You received it? >> I did also I do have that one. >> Okay. >> As well. >> Anyone else that noticed report report
of the resolution subcommittee? You do. All right. So, it was widespread distribution. Okay. Thank you. >> Oh, hey, one other thing. On Thursday, um at the Burlington one, they're going to be highlighting Chesterfield School District. So if anybody's interested in
coming from Chesterfield, please join us. Uh focusing around the multi-ter system of support. Um on the legislative side, there was a couple bills discussed, some signed by the education committee on the Senate side. Um I'm going to wait till December
to see. I mean, everything's kind of more likely on hold now with the governor's shift. um I don't know how many how many things will get signed in or just being kind of thrown at the wall now. So there's a long list of ones that the education committee kind of discussed. Um so as opposed to going into a whole bunch of bills that may not
go anywhere. I'd rather not open them up like there are grand ideas happening. So >> have you been going up to Trenton or you just >> I more just follow I've listened into when I can and but like yeah I more just follow what they do. But >> lame duck if you get a chance this this time of year is is very interesting up
there. There's a lot of wheeling and dealing. >> All right. Um, this time we are going to go to public comment. If anyone hasn't had the opportunity to sign in on the sign-in sheets and would like to speak on agenda items, you are free to do so now. If not, then we have no public
comment at this time. All right. Um, we will now move to consent agenda. Items on the consent agenda are believed to be items of routine nature, requiring no discussion, and which are to be voted upon. on a single roll call vote to the board. Any single member of the board may have any
of the items on the consent agenda removed and placed on the other part of the agenda for discussion merely by so indicating prior to the vote to be taken on the consent agenda. Items removed from the consent agenda are identified by an asterisk and will be subject to discussion by the full board.

services. Any questions or comments for section 13? I do have a question on excuse me 1305 um not quite sure I understand what um what the ask is here it says we're going to use a chaperone stipen for this club.
So, as we discussed at the personnel meeting um last week, whenever we had it, um the there's a discrepancy between the the what the middle school robotics club is paid and what the high school robotics club are paid for doing
virtually the same thing. Um so, the the stipen that the middle school gets is for meeting maybe couple times a month and then obviously no weekends and so on. However, they meet multiple times a week. Um, and then also do four to five
weekend events that that are all day on Saturday. So, the chaperone stipen is to be able to compensate for them for their time that they're working on the weekend um supervising this event. uh by using the chaperone stipen. It's it works out
very similar to uh to the the same thing as if we were going to pay them hourly, but the chaperone stipen is something that's already in place to supervise students. So then if they're there for the morning, then they would get paid the morning chaperone stipen. They're there for the afternoon, it would be the same stipen just for a PM. Or if they're
there all day, they would get an AM and a PM. So then is is this potentially a a contractual gap that we need to address on the next goround? >> It and that's exactly right. So it's kind of like a stop gap until and then it's for the teachers union will will
bring it forward. I'm expecting them to bring it forward during the next negotiations. >> Okay. I don't know if we have interest in it in making sure it's in there or if the way this is being done with Shapro works for us. I think it I think it makes it right for the for the time that they're putting in for now and I I could
foresee a discussion about a discussion coming forward at the next negotiations. >> Okay. So, are we maintaining a list then for next round? >> Absolutely. >> Okay. >> Uh it's ongoing for each of our six each of our six bar units. >> Okay. Thank you.
>> Any other questions or comments on section 13? All right. We have no items in section 14 this evening. Section 15 policy 15.02 is first reading of revised policies. 15.03 is approval of abolishment of a policy and 15.04 is a
approval of regulation for adoption. Second reading. Any questions or comments on section 15. Section 16 is transportation. Uh 12.02 is certification of the bus evacuation drill for the high school. 16.03 3 is
certification of the bus evacuation drill for the middle school. Any questions or comments on section 16, right? Section 17 is use of facilities. 17.02 is approval of use of facilities for Northern Burlington youth wrestling.
17.03 is approval of use of facilities for the parent teacher student connection. 17.04 is approval of use of facilities for the NBC band boosters. Any questions or comments on section 17? I have a question on the insurance certificates. It looks like the
wrestling is is expired and band boosters doesn't have one. Is there is there a requirement for insurance like liability insurance when they're using our facility? >> Yes, there is a requirement and I'll follow up on that.
>> Thank you. >> Actually, Mr. We can go back um on the on the policies for the um which which read this was on first or second >> for the regulation >> for the regulation or the policies
themselves. >> Um it looks like 1502 is the section I'm in which should be first reading revised policies. There's and and I only bring this up because I actually have a note here. I was going to actually bring it up under new business um policy. So there's reference here policy 6220 but
the link is actually to the regulation and I'm curious is that just a typo and then do we need to kind of re >> we'll remove it from here and then we'll add it to next month's with the with the
correct link. I think that's easy. >> Go ahead. So, uh, policy 6220 is on our list, but the link is for regulation 6220. So, we'll just verify if it's supposed to be regulation or supposed to be policy. I >> Okay. And that's ultimately that was
what was going to be my um my comment in in new business is that I had noticed we're actually missing 6220. And since it is budget season, um it would probably be important for that to have be here because I'm pretty sure 6220 according to Strauss is a mandated. So, it doesn't look like we have it on the
books today. So, I guess if we can take that back in the policy committee, that probably be a good a good idea. >> Thanks. So, >> for the at the recent policy committee meeting,
we actually um reviewed both the policy and the regulation, >> right? >> Or the committee is recommending uh approval, >> right? So, I just make sure that I guess that we get we've got the right link. That's all that we get it out there. >> So, in that the regulation is not
mandate mandatory um for approval. So, then the policy is though obviously. >> Right. Right. And that's what I'm saying since it's going to regulation right now. I just make sure we get this updated. Do we want to take five? >> Yeah, just well I'm trying to see if I can find the what the changes are
because like you said budget season like if it's a matter of they change the the statute by a number I can >> I'll make I'll make a motion for five minute recess so we can get it straight if you want. And as it says in in my notes from it, the only
sorry my screen is too big for that. The revisions obvious the revisions were to support the administrative code does not change the current budget preparation and budget submission requirements. So, it's really just to align with the with the updated code.
>> Okay. >> Um, so with that, does the board want does anyone on the board want five minutes to review that policy before we vote on it so it can be get our first reading because our second reading would be December. page and if I could read it you want I
mean >> where I can email it to everybody. >> So I'm just considering if obviously as Mr. Buck said it's it is budget season and it is a budget based policy and it's mandated and obviously it takes two readings. So
whenever it pushes to January >> um got it take a five minute recess and then I'm emailing to everybody right now. >> Yeah. I mean we don't need to take a recess people can take the time to read it.
>> Okay. here. There's no I mean unless someone needs to get up and leave the dis I think we can just maintain the meeting while takes a second to review it. >> That's fine. >> Yes. It is in cyber somewhere. Sounds like
should be in. Yeah. Access for everything. Thank you. Thank you. Looks like we're good. >> Y >> I was just looking around make sure everyone was good. >> So I was going to ask a related question
to this. So what I had noticed and the reason this was on my on my list for tonight was that um we don't have 6220 currently in our book of policy. No, it's a new policy essentially. >> Well, and that's what I'm curious about because 6220 has been around since like
2011. >> Okay. >> So, I'm just curious and maybe this is again this goes back to policy committee. I'm not sure why we don't have one on the books already. Um, and maybe that kind of goes towards some other ones that we got to take a look at what's what's been deemed mandatory and what we're actually missing. Yeah.
because this is a this is one that like I said I I know it's been around for for as long as I've been a board member. >> Do we know that it was it always mandatory? Are you aware? >> Yeah. >> Okay. >> Yeah. >> I don't know if that was maybe part of this this alert. I mean, it could have been it could have been an update, but I mean, it's >> as as far to know, it's it's always been
because it was always again the curiosity to me was >> the um the language in there that says that the board will provide the means by which uh the public can have input into the budgetary process. Um because that was always that was always the language
that was was important to me, right? Is that every board should be doing that and that's something I think that we probably need to make sure that we're doing. And the fact that we don't have that as a policy on the books kind of handcuffs us a little bit. So
>> well at this point I think we can still do it as first reading of policy now everyone have opportunity to fully review it. >> Okay. >> As far as the input from the public um isn't that opportunity when we go over
the bubble the budget and we present it >> that does that. I mean that'd be part of it. I think I think this I believe the spirit of that was that there's you know I guess maybe some sort of call to action by the board to the public to say hey listen we're in the budgetary process if you have input to the budget
right you should come make that input known to to the board >> so um because it is it is a long process that we go through right in the budget so >> yeah I mean I guess it' be the same as the comment tonight of for the rest of the board who's not on the committee you know the same thing yeah right
>> I guess anyone listening at home or >> has has input, you know, come speak at public comment. That's the time to do it. >> Thanks. >> Yeah, absolutely. Um, with that, I believe we've uh gone through all consent agenda items. Just
to confirm, no one had any questions on section 17 or any other sections that we didn't get to. All right, I can get a motion for the consent agenda. >> I'll make a motion to accept the consent agenda.
Second. Right. Mrs. Williams, if you could please do a roll call vote. >> Mr. Figs. >> Yay. >> Mrs. Bond. >> Yes. >> Mrs. Applegate? >> Yes. >> Mr. Armente? >> Yes. >> Mr. Bucks?

public comment section, please feel free to do so now. If not, we will close public comment. All right. Thank you. Um, at this time, the board will be going into executive session. Um, we will be conducting business with a
single non-consent agenda item. Uh, the conclusion of executive session. Um, I'm not quite sure timeline half half hour. We're not really sure. Maybe approximately 30 minutes, but um, not very sure the length of time for executive session here. As I said, there
will be uh, one non-conent agenda item following executive session this evening. Oh, and motion to go into executive session. >> Motion on executive session. Second. All those in favor? I. All opposed. Abstensions.
Thank you. All right. Um, can I get a motion to return from executive session? >> Motion to return from executive session. Second. >> All those in favor? I. >> All opposed? Extensions.

in executive session on November 17th, 2025 pursuant to state law and JSA 18A-38-138-1 and board policy 5111. And whereas based upon the evidence and testimony presented during the hearing and deliberated upon by the board, the
board has made a determination that the students are not bonafideed residents of the Northern Burlington County Regional School District for the purposes of receiving free public education. Now therefore, be it resolved that the Northern Burlington County Regional Board of Education hereby affirms the
finding of non-resident and directs the superintendent to formally exclude students 2027416 and 2026482 from enrollment effective uh no later than December 2nd, 2025.
May I get a second for the motion, please? >> A second. >> All right. Um our the board's hearts go out to you. Uh we completely understand. Um we feel for your situation. Um we strongly encourage
you to to again look into uh trying to rejoin our district. Um to rejoin the school. Um you know, we appreciate you coming out tonight. Uh unfortunately, uh based upon the statutes and the policies, the board has has is voting on the way we're voting at this time. Um
with that, Mrs. Williams or does anyone have any other questions or comments they want to mention at this time? All right, Miss Williams, if you could please do a roll call vote. >> Mr. Figs, >> yay. >> Mrs. Bond, >> yes. >> Mrs. Apple,
