presentation. Um Mr. I'd like to invite the board Morning. That house. Uh good evening. Uh welcome to the Anacog group in the back. Thanks for coming. Uh would like to take uh some time just to talk about preschool this
evening. It's a it's a success story of the district. Um through multiple challenges, we've managed to uh work through and implement uh full day high quality preschool over the past several years. Um we would like to share with you our progress as well as our
projections uh moving forward. Um, I would like to recognize Miss April Vidiello, director of early childhood, who really has taken this initiative on and also see Danielle Dunia in the in the in the room, our supervisor of early childhood.
Um, so, uh, next slide, please. Um, I I should have left on the last slide. Raising Raiders is the um, uh, the term that describes what we do in early childhood. we uh get our children from three and four years old and bring them into a school setting. Uh the
impact is significant. Um high quality preschool has shown in various studies to improve everything from social emotional skills to academic performance um for years to come. Uh the district will reap the benefits of this initiative years after we're gone. Um as
we build a prek to 12 school district um here in Nutley. Next slide, please. I I do need to start with a story. This has been a journey um in the past uh four years. Uh we started uh prior to
July 2022, we we had preschool in Nutley. Uh preschool was a mixed delivery model um half days um mostly uh some full day and we have tailored around like many districts do our students of special needs mixing in uh
5050 gened students um in the classrooms. Um prior to that the state has initiated high quality preschool through its preschool expansion initiative mostly starting in Abbott districts and then tearing it up to different socioeconomic values across
the state. Um, in July 2022, uh, Nutley was notified that we qualified as they were expanding or I I should say re changing the requirements for for districts that are available, uh, to be funded per pupil for preschool. Um, and as we became
available, um, one of the first things, um, I was just superintendent at that time, brought to the board and 100% support, uh, the board decided to move forward with applying for preschool funding for preschool and making preschool happen. Um, in the 5 to 10
year vision of the district, preschool is a big part of it. Uh, so this gave us the mechanism to bring in funds that could support our preschool initiative. Uh, in July, we applied. I remember doing that. We got the application in early August, I think, and we were
notified by late August, early September that we were um awarded. The application process at that time was very rigorous. You had to um meet certain criteria. You had to write up an application. It was scored and and they took um the highest for the funding they had available, the
highest scores, and we we were lucky enough to qualify for that. Uh the the issue was we had to be operational by October. And although we've had preschool and district, preschool expansion uh looked a lot different. It had high classroom square footage
ratios. It had um you know high staffing ratios. Um so we at that point we moved some rooms around media centers and different places around district to accommodate um the request to be operational in October. Uh from there um
in 2223 uh between our four PA classrooms and our preschool disabled, there's some acronyms up there. PEA stands for preschool expansion aid and PST stands for preschool disabled. Between those two sets of classrooms, we had 104
students in preschool. Um and we're off to a great start. As we learned more and grew, uh we increased that to 172 pea and PSD. We moved into the middle school bottom floor. uh we started working more classrooms and providers. Uh provider is
a nutly preschool that runs our program and we're able to give them or share with them some of the funding we get from the state uh to do that. Um and then last year we had 214 students in our preschool expansion and PSD classes. Uh so moving forward, this kind of
paints the picture to where we've been. We're in year four this year. Um when we applied the requirement of the time was that we would work towards 90% of our preschool universe in preschool within five years. Um so next year will be year
five as we move forward. Um and at the time that was the expectation in working with the state. I'm g turn over to April for the next couple slides. >> Good evening. So this slide talks a little bit about some data sets for the
2024 2025 school year. Um so in preschool we look at various areas including social emotional physical both fine and gross motor language skills, receptive expressive language skills as
well as literacy and math. Um our teachers collect anecdotes and they assess students across these areas. Um throughout the year we do report out with report cards on a trimester basis similar to the elementary schools.
Um we do collect data and we're able to track our students individual growth over time. We have class profiles and then we're also able to look at at how our program is doing as a whole. Um so when we look at this we're looking at national norms for children um in the
same age range. So, if you're looking at a three-year-old um child, you're looking at them compared to three-year-olds, you know, throughout the country. And same with foury olds. Um so, this data set is looking at our students when they started in the 2425
school year when they entered. Um the blue box up there on the chart represents below expectations, orange is meeting expectations, and then the green is exceeding. So what you'll see here in the fall, uh we had a lot of
students starting our program. They were assessed in the fall and most of them were either below expectations or meeting expectations across the different areas. And then in the spring, you can see um a
significant trend where students that were below the that those lines decrease significantly. Um we see students continuing to meet expectations and then we see a significant change in students exceeding expectations.
Um so we had few to no students above expectations in the fall, significant progress across all domains in the spring and a significant portion of students exceeded expectations in the language, cognitive and math domains. Um it's sort of hard to to see that here on
the chart. um math and language we and literacy we saw um the the largest gains in students succeeding and then both um you know in physical and social emotional we also improved notably I will note that that year that is something we did really focus on
literacy and math finding other opportunities um throughout the day to provide like some extra small group instruction it's something we focused on a lot in our department meetings with our teachers um did some PLC's and some targeted professional development um in
those areas. Next slide. >> Uh so this year with opening uh the 777 facility with nine preschool classes, uh we're able to accommodate or have seats for 333 students. Um we have we're funded by the state for 252
seats. Uh we have 33 seats in our um pea classes for inclusion. Um these are special ed students that may come into our district when they turn three or have been in our district that are in the gened setting. Really important part of preschool self-contained. We
continuously um see about 48 students in our preschool classes. Our four uh PSD classes uh year to year. Uh we've distributed those classrooms around the district. Uh this year we have two uh at Washington, two at Lincoln.
We have at Spring Garden we have one P PA and two PSD classes. Our early childhood center we're able to have seven and two. Um our providers preschool time they have four. Uh they've taken over the St. Paul's facility and are managing that facility
where they have three and community school uh right across the street here. They have three classes. So currently we have 19 PA classes and four PSD classes um having seats for 333 students across
our district. Uh April's going to come and talk about our projections for next year. So for next year we are projecting to add 14 classrooms, three at providers. We are onboarding another provider all about kids. Um preschool learn time is
looking to pick up two additional classrooms as well and then community will continue with three. Um and then we're adding 11 district classrooms. Uh so next year we are looking to have five classrooms at Washington, five at
Lincoln, three PA classrooms for preschool expansion at Spring Garden with continuing with two preschool disabilities, adding one preschool expansion classroom at Yanekqua, two at Radcliffe, continuing with seven at um
our early childhood center and two PSD there um for a total of 33 PA classes. and continuing with four preschool disabilities. So, we're looking to increase our preschool expansion student number to 462.
We're going to continue to reserve seats for 33 students with IEPs. As Mr. Bania mentioned, those students may move from a more restrictive setting to a general education setting. They may also come in throughout the year as they turn three
and they're found eligible by our child study team. Um, and then we'll continue to have 48 seats in a self-contained setting for a total of 543 students. And that puts us at a little over 89% of our projected universe. Um, it's also
important to note that um, students that are currently in the program at age three are automatically eligible to be in our program at age four. and we are anticipating 110 students to return um
as four-year-olds next year. Next slide. So, just a little bit about our timeline. Um in November, November 15th to be exact, we have to submit our plan for the following school year. Um, so that really requires, you know, future planning that starts really over the
summer. And we're having conversations about looking at data sets and trends. Um, we're looking at facility space that's available. Um, because really that's that's what's contingent upon us being able to ask, right, for additional
classes. Is there a need? We do have a wait list. We currently have 133 students on our weight list. Um, so there is a need and do we have space? Um, then we typically get approval um through our state aid notice in
February. Um, that pretty much will let us know if what we're asking for is going to be approved. We do have to submit a budget workbook in early March and um, we receive that workbook in early March. We have to submit that in
mid-March and we do receive our final approval in early April. So that's why on our preschool website, applications open up in January. And once we know um the funding we receive, we'll be able to determine how many seats we have a
available. And if we have more applicants than seats, then we have to run a lottery. Our hope, our goal is to be able to provide free preschool to every resident um of Nutley, every three and four year olds. Um and that is contingent upon the funding that we've
received through the state. Before we end, just a couple key points. Um, the facilities that you saw in next year's projections are subject to change as we move forward. Uh, the state recently released new guidance that moves the required space from 950 ft to
630 ft. So, a big shift in state statute helps us find available classrooms in the district. Um and this could be made possible to the um effort to move sixth grade uh to the middle school, opening up classrooms um in our elementary
buildings. Um so it is another silver lining in the sixth grade transition uh to get us up to you say 89% close to 90% preschool uh within the 5-year as the expectations were laid out four years ago. Um so I'm happy to
report that. Um Dr. Dealia, would you like us to take questions now about preschool? >> Any questions from the board? >> Well, a lot of people in the room um whether whether it's the teachers or the association uh or definitely Daniela and April, Mike, Janette, you know, a lot of
people on our board have had an impact in bringing preschool into our schools. It's going to benefit this district and uh we appreciate your time and attention. Thank you so much. >> Thank you. Thank you for that presentation. I think we'd all be remiss if we did not um take a minute to acknowledge the cooperation
with the uh township of Nutley and our board of commissioners in the uh prek and uh not just the prek initiative but the securing of a prek facility without that partnership. Uh we would still be climbing um but not as fast. I think
that's easy to be said. So um just a a brief acknowledgement uh as we move on to our reports. Uh, superintendent report. Mr. Ba, >> how's how's that sound? Okay. Good evening and thank you, Mr. Vice President, members of the board, members
of the community. Um, November is always a quick month in our schools. Can you hear me? Okay, Jess. Yeah. Okay. But a great deal of meaningful work continues throughout the district, especially as we prepare for our sixth grade transition. I'd like to highlight
several important updates. Um, our staff interest surveys regarding potential transitions to the new middle school model have been completed. We received 22 staff requests from individuals interested in trans transitioning. We are currently reviewing all the
certificates with the New Jersey Department of Ed to ensure proper placement and alignment. Uh, work continues with the John H. Walker middle school building team and our supervisor group to to solidify our selective uh our elective cycles uh for the new middle school programming. Um as well as
our core teachers also at John H. Walker the media center renovation is progressing well. I know our sixth grade teachers had a PD over there and they they were able to tour the facility but uh the space has been fully framed and the team is now moving uh forward with installing roughings um in the space. On
the academic side, planning for the Nutley High School 2627 program of studies is underway. Uh the document um is being finalized. Uh I know our group is looking at pathways in certain areas um as we realize the impact of not only pathways to the high school, but maybe
pathways in a campuswide approach, middle school, high school in years to come. It'll be brought to the academic committee u by January for discussion and eventually for approval. our budget. Um, our district has officially begun budgeting for the 2627
school year. Um, I want to thank Mike and of course Janette, the budget calendar is out. I know memos are starting to go out to our district leadership to start getting um ideas about what the budget looks like. Um, I want to remind the community that with the rising costs of salaries,
healthcare, energy, and the need to address facility concerns, particularly HVAC across the district, this will be a challenging winter and spring budget season. Uh, in order to remain sustainable, we still have to find efficiencies uh with the available operational revenues and
work together to make sure our programs are intact. Uh today we welcome our new crisis counselor, April Brown, who joins us through the partnership with Netley Family Services. She will support Netley High School students as well as students across the district housed here at the
high school. Uh we are proud to highlight an exceptional accomplishment by Nley High School students, Naomi Wei, who was selected as a national young arts award winner for excellence in modern and contemporary dance. 13,000 students applied. Only 700 were
selected. Naomi's achievement is a tremendous honor for her, her family, and for Netley High School. On November 7th, 15 members of the Nutley High School core program performed with the NJMEA All State Mix Choir at the historic Jim Wheelen Boardwalk Call in
Atlantic City as part of the NJA teacher convention. We're proud of them. On November 16th, all 19 high school Nutly High School Allstar treble chorus and mix chorus students performed at New Jersey Pack Performing Arts Center in
Newark for their culminating all state concerts. These students continue to represent our district with tremendous pride, professionalism, and artistry. Speaking of, our winter performance season is underway with many opportunities to support our students.
December 7th, we will have the brass ensemble and men another high school men's choir at the mayor's tree manure lighting. On December 9th, we'll have the NHS UI concert 7 p.m. right here. December 10th is spring garden first and
second grade. December 11th, Lincoln and Radcliffe first and second grade. December 12th, this is one of my favorite events, the Nutley Music Booster St. Mary's benefit concert at St. Mary's Church in Nutley. December 16th, Washington Yanakaw first
and second grade concerts. And December 17th, John H. Walker Middle School winter concert will take place. Uh last Thursday, our culinary and hospitality students once again prepared and served the annual Nutley Chamber of Commerce Thanksgiving lunch. About 65
attendees joined the event at the VFW with our students fully planned, prepared, and executed a delicious lunch. Tomorrow, these same students will collaborate with Nutley Family Service Bureau to prepare Thanksgiving to go meals for our Netley senior citizens.
Both of these are possible because of our staff. I want to mention Vin, but of course the teachers, Lisa Boyman and John Gallardo. They do a great job and the students do a great job. This past Friday, we also celebrated student creativity and innovation with our trips
marketplace. Many people were there. It was probably one of the best attended I've seen here in Nutley. Um, I do need to thank the Netley Educational Foundation, Chris Oasia. Um, I got to thank Ian Vmeister for behind the scenes, all the instructors for supporting. Absolutely.
Did a great job. The kids were excited and many of them sold out their their materials. Uh, you know, principles, teachers, they come to see their students there um selling things. This is a great opportunity. I am very happy we moved into the fall to to kick off the holiday season. I even began my
holiday shopping with some slime, handmade earrings, and lip balm. So, my daughters benefited from that. Parent teacher conferences were held earlier the month, and families are always encouraged to follow up with any teacher at any time. Growing our students is a
team sport, right? We work better as a team. Uh, in addition to our preschool submission, we are pleased to recommend Jenna Rabino as vice principal of John H. Walker Middle School. An important step in supporting the sixth grade transition. A renewal of partnership with Hackinac
Meridian Medical School is on the agenda tonight, allowing its students to work with our administration students on a variety of projects. Also, um you will see a resolution to fully sublease the former board of education office above the Valley National Bank with our offices moving uh
to 777 as well as a resolution to submit the final component of the John H. Walker Middle School renovation to the New Jersey DOE, the HVAC package for the new classrooms. As we head into the holiday, I would like to wish everyone a warm and happy
Thanksgiving. I hope you find moments to rest, reflect, and give thanks in your own way. December is a wonderful month to be in the schools, especially in the Nutle Public Schools. And we look forward to supporting community traditions such as the chambers arrival
of Santa, I believe that's Friday, the mayor's annual treelighting, and all the winter performances across the schools. Thank you, and I look forward to another great month in December. >> Thank you, Mr. Beette. Uh now we move to the uh business administrator's report.
Mr. Devita, >> thank you. Uh on for approval at tonight's meeting will be uh amendments to both the IDA and ESA grants. Uh they will incorporate uh our carryover amounts um in into the new grant. Um now
that our 2024 25 final expenditure reports have been approved. And um also at our December 22nd board meeting, our auditors will be in attendance to present the 2024 25 audit. Thank you.
>> Thank you, Mr. Devita. Now, our student representative, Mr. Lee. >> Good evening, everyone. This past month, Nelly High School held a variety of events that helped support both our school community and those in need. We continued our food drive collection with
many students contributing canned goods and non-p perishable items. Um the key club will be helping pack those tomorrow. Um and we'll help distribute them. This Wednesday we're hosting our first schoolwide sports tournament, the Bmon tournament. Over 180 students
signed up and these students signed up by donating $5 or $5 worth of canned goods and a portion of these proceeds will be donated to charity. These events brought students together while also reinforcing the importance of giving back during the holiday season.
And looking forward, December will be a very active month at the high school. We'll be hosting our annual Deck the Halls fundraiser where the teachers can participate and decorate their classroom doors. The students will also have the opportunity to dress for spirit week.
Um, our toy drive and gift card drive will is still ongoing and the last day to donate will be December 12th. The mayor tree lighting will take place on the 7th where we'll have some stu high school students um helping out there and we'll have our U tide concert scheduled
for the 9th. Um our testing season continues. The SAT will be administered December 6th and the ACT the following weekend on the 13th. Um and on December 5th, we'll have Sen Hall University sponsoring a stress management and
wellness panel for the students. On the 10th, we'll have another wellness panel focused on mental health during the holidays. And that same day, we'll have um representatives from the Hackinack Medical Center um where where they'll be talking about potential careers in
medicine. We're looking forward to a great month after we come back to from Thanksgiving break. Thank you everyone. >> Thank you, Mr. Lee. And as always, if you would like to stick around, you're more than welcome. Otherwise, I'm sure that you have some homework to do or
other activities. All right. Uh, we now move to committee reports. We hear from academic committee, Miss Danjack Martin. >> Thank you, Mr. Vice President. The academic committee met on November 11th. Members of the district faculty joined

>> Thank you, Mrs. Sa. I have to uh comment on that real briefly. I was able to attend and I I think what you can't replicate uh yes there were tons of of of wonderful projects but the feel of the room right it was just wonderful the kids were so excited they dragged you
from table to table to table to table everybody was so it was it was a wonderful atmosphere so thank you very much >> hello uh Dan Prport 236 really uh I'm not here to talk about the trips, but I my daughter participated in the trips program. It was excellent. It was run
really well. Um the kids learned a lot. It was just an amazing program. So, great job everyone who was involved with that. Um what I'm here to talk about today, just want to thank everybody on the board for your continued support regarding uh religious observances in our school calendar. Uh last year the
inclusion of time off um and accommodations for major Jewish holidays rashana yum kipper and Passover um were greatly appreciated and had a meaningful impact on students, staff members and families in our district. As we look forward to the upcoming school year, um
I would like to respectfully submit the following requests. Uh Rashashana next year. Rashashana falls on a weekend. The Jewish calendar changes every year. So sometimes a weekday, sometimes a weekend. Next year it's a weekend. So with the full with the first full day on Saturday, September 12th, 2026. So no
day off is needed and we are requesting no homework, tests or school events on the weekend, September 11th to the 13th to allow families to um observe the holiday properly. Yum Kipper, we kindly request that Monday, September 21st, 2026 be designated as a day off just
like it was last year or this current year uh as it is the holiest day of the Jewish year in the calendar. Um, in addition, we ask that the preceding weekend be free of homework tests and major school events so that students have the ability to prepare for and observe the holiday without academic
pressure. Um, as far as Passover in 2027 is one of the rare years where it does not align with Easter. Um, so in keeping in previous um years requesting no homework, tests or events on Wednesday, April 21st and Thursday, April 22nd,
which are the first two nights of Passover. No days off are needed, just no homework or tests or events in those days. Um, thank you again for your thoughtful consideration and for continuing to make our schools a welcoming place for all. Thank you so much.
>> Thank you very much. >> Hi, I'm Deb Albert at 23 Wilmington. Um, and I was just coming up here just to thank you guys for turning the no homework directive into a formal policy. Um, from a strategic standpoint, this program, it does so much to support
unity and understanding within our community. And it really allows our school calendar to remain more consistent. Um, reducing the need to close school for every observance and helping really to, you know, avoid stretching the year out longer. Um, I
really think it also creates meaningful opportunities for for students and staff to learn about one another's traditions and practices. So, by sharing, explaining the meaning of these observances, we can all learn from one another and deepen our sense of community. the the BOE really set the
course for this and um I'm not sure that the public really fully recognizes how impactful it is from a broader strategic perspective and I really would like to encourage the teachers and the parents and the
students to build on the opportunity that the BOE has laid out and you know it would I really think it's an opportunity for to strengthen the empathy the awareness and connection across our community. So rather than saying, oh, or rather than
thinking, great, a day of no homework, um I it's really also upon us to ask, you know, why is there no homework? What's this occasion about? So thank you again for your thoughtful leadership. >> Thank you very much for that.
Anyone else wish to speak? No. Okay. Uh, hearing none, let's move on to our agenda. Uh, Miss Danject Martin, would you like to um present academic?
