do more things better and better each year thank you >> thank you [applause] I just want to say congratulations, Brooke. Welcome. Um, you have an enormous responsibility ahead of you and based upon your tenacity and your
dedication that I've seen over the last year, I think that you will fulfill the role of a board member admirably and I'm very proud to be sitting next to you this evening. Um, I just want to give a message to my fellow colleagues on the board. We can teach a lesson tonight. We
can teach a lesson moving forward. As we know, there's a lot of hatred in the world. There's a lot of disdain between political parties and people and others. I think we could uh do better than that. I think that the community is watching us and I think that we should be unified
in what we do going forward. We are all here for a common thread and that common thread is to ensure that our community and our children have the best education and we're the stewards of that process and we need to work together in unity. All too often, you know, sometimes I'm
to blame as well that I'm I'm bringing in, you know, vigor and and and disdain sometimes, but I think that we have an obligation to move forward as one. And there is nine of us here who can work together and we've proven that we can work together and I want to do that
moving forward. So I I ask my fellow board members that we coales together and and be one and work together for the very best of this community. So before we go into the election of president and vice president, I think we need to be one and I'm hoping that we make those
decisions tonight. Thank you. I will say something. Congratulations to the winners, uh, Jenn and Marjorie, coming back as a glutton of punishment. So, thanks for coming back. Um, but I will say something about Brooke. You know, a lot of candidates that ran would
just show up maybe two or three meetings before election and give the impression that they cared. But I do I'm impressed with the fact that you came to every meeting. You've come to every committee meeting. um you put your time in willing to learn and uh I admire the fact I
haven't seen that in a while. So a lot of people just mail it in and you put the time in and I look forward to your future. >> I'll say a quick something as well. Um to Jen and Margie, congratulations on your reelection and like some others
have said um you're coming back for more. So that really does show your true commitment to our community. So, I look forward to the work um that we've already been doing to to continue moving forward. So, congratulations to the both of you. Um and to Brooke, our newest elected member, congratulations. Um I
see how hard you work. You brought me to tears uh speaking about your daughter um being a mom of of your kids. Well, your your your bonds with your kids is um is very evident. So, um, I love that they're here supporting you because you're going to
need to because it's a lot of time. So, congratulations to you. Okay. At this time, we'll now conduct our first roll call of our newly organized Old Bridge Township Board of Education. Miss Dantuno. >> Yes.

practice that I read the board of uh the code of ethics for each board member. Uh in your folder, you should have this uh for signature. Every board member uh needs to sign this prior to leaving. Rip off the top sheet and provide the signed copy back to me.
So, we will move the board acknowledge receipt of the code of ethics by each school board member, the reading thereof by the school business administrator, and subsequent discussion thereof. In accordance with NJSA18A12-24-.1, every board member will abide by the following code of ethics. The board
member will uphold and enforce all laws, rules, and regulations of the state board of education and court orders pertaining to schools. Desired changes shall be brought about only through legal and ethical procedures. Make decisions in terms of the
educational welfare of children and seek to develop and maintain public schools that meet the individual needs of all children regardless of their ability, race, creed, sex, or social standing. Confine his or her board action to policym planning and appraisal and help
to frame policies and plans only after the board has consulted those who will be affected by them. carry out his or her responsibility not to administer the schools, but together with fellow board members ensure they are well-run. Recognize that authority rests with the
board of education and make no personal promises, nor take any private action that may compromise the board. Refuse to surrender his or her independent judgment to special interests or partisan political groups or to use the schools for personal gain or the gain of
friends. hold confidential all matters pertaining to the schools which if disclosed would needlessly injure individuals or the schools. In all other matters, he or she will provide accurate information and in concert with fellow board members
interpret to the staff the aspirations of the community for its school. Vote to appoint the best qualified personnel available after consideration of the recommendation of the chief administrative officer.
Support and protect school personnel in proper performance of their duties. Refer all complaints to the chief administrative officer and act on the complaints at public meetings only after failure of an administrative solution.
That concludes the ethics. Again, a form is in your folder for a signature. Please receive uh get me that copy before we leave tonight. Any other questions? We did not yet. I got to I got to read it first. Yeah.
>> Ready? Miss Dantuno? >> Yes. >> Mr. Dunn? >> Yes. >> Miss Jori? >> Yes. >> Miss Mazone? >> Yes. >> Miss Richards Patterson? >> Yes. >> Mr. Slade? >> Yes. >> Mr. Solicowski? >> Yes. >> Mr. Vanitason? Yes.
>> And Miss Francisco. >> Yes. >> Resolutions one and two for board secretary and board business passes. >> Hearing of the residents on any school district topic that you would like to discuss. >> Okay. Seeing none, I will close hearing
of the residents. Do we have any old business or new business? Okay. >> Are we doing new business? Go ahead. You were gonna talk. >> Um, well, this is my first time and I did get u Dr. Sasso's blessing. So
because we did we have been talking um you know periodically between election day and or the day after election day I should say and today and um I met with him [clears throat] um just from my experiences from attending the CPAG meetings um kind of
getting to know some of the parents uh in that group and SEPTA and I went ahead and went to um a resource fair in the town next door and um I thought why
aren't we doing one of those? I know there was talk about it but I actually wanted to put a spin on it and I pitched it to Dr. Sasso and he says he's all in. So we're going to talk about that some more obviously with the board members and you know um special services
department. But what I liked about the I liked one specific vendor there that in the corner had um like balance beams and mats and like interactive things to play with. And I said I would love to see something like that here
with all the vendors. And I told every single vendor if you come to Oldbridge remember me because I don't want chachkis and tables and brochures. I want parents to have a night out in a safe space with safe people where they could socialize and the kids can
interact and actually play. Um it's something that is desperately needed. And um and then we also went to the planetarium because we talked about, you know, maybe doing something like that too, like a couple of um uh special needs geared shows specifically for this
community because it's a small room. It's it's only like 55 seats. I think we we learned that day. So, um I just wanted to share that. I just it's something really exciting. Um and there's definitely moms in the background that are just waiting for the green light to say, "Hey, we want to
volunteer. We want to help." Um so, whenever you're ready, doctor, just wanted to mention that. Okay. Um so, I would like to just say thank you to those who supported me. Um tonight and through the
last several years um in this journey to serve this community. Um if you would have asked me a few years ago if I had ever be on a board of education, I would have told you you were crazy. Um and I would have said never. So it's the whole never say never thing. And then if you would have asked me that I would serve as the board president, I would have
also told you that that's never going to happen. Um I see this as an incredible honor. I take this role very seriously. Um and that will only deepen with this role ahead of me. Um and Even though I don't have an actual office or parking spot or a salary or
anything else >> benefits, my door is always open. So, anytime anyone needs to reach out, um, please do so. And thank you again for your support. >> And on behalf of the district, I'd like to just congratulate everyone here
tonight. Um, and I really want to say thank you to Miss Olsen, Miss No, Mr. Gajooki, uh, Mrs. Walsh, and especially our students in the TV production program, uh, for our new venue here tonight. Um, I think, uh, you know, feels good in here and so we'll, uh, make some improvements along the way.
But, uh, to the public, we'll be meeting, uh, moving forward here in the Oldbridge High School main cafeteria. You'll enter through door number one. and thank our security staff for certainly keeping us safe. But uh for everyone who uh made this venue possible, I'd like to just say thank
you. [applause] Any other comments? Okay, seeing none, then um can I have a motion to adjurnn? >> Miss motion. >> Second. >> All in favor? >> I. >> Thank you everyone for coming out and
being here. We appreciate you. Have a good night. >> I want pictures, guys. >> What's up,
