students dress for students to dress. In fact, many staff members and then still dresses. The funds raised allow us to provide opportunities that our school cannot
cover. After schools depend on these funds to purchase masks and supplies that keep our programs working and running after school. Our building committee used these funds to support
and to host retirement celebration each year that honors our holiday dress upon that learning and give our students moments that they may not otherwise have. And lastly, teacher organizations
hold days to support that support both our staff and our students when appear on the board agenda as there are many not just the other schools throughout the district. It may seem like a simple request, but I ask you that you take

Silver, but we're going to move the public and we have Mr. Please. reflect on the past two and a half years and reflect on some of the things that you saw not only on that prescription
which our superintendent spearheaded along with leadership on this board um supporting the superintendent the superintendent developed that relationship administration and what the result is we
have 25 of our young people going to that school with over $100,000 anybody that's been living working or a member of this board over the years knows that it's not often that our young people are
getting not often enough that our young people are receiving accolades and recognition and early I'm gonna give him a shout out probably football
playoff games for us to university. Those are the type of young people that we all know attend our school and our superintendent cares about all of our children and there's no good reason why
contact and I've heard different reasons why we should wait till January for the reorder. New Jersey administrative code section 6A 23A 3.1 along with the notice provision of state
statute allow existing contracts to be negotiated or renegotiated or amended at any time anytime today any people that are elected that haven't been sworn in yet because we're
concerned about whether it willend And then I'm not concerned about I'm concerned about the young people in our school district. And right now we have a school district, a school board that can vote to extend her contract. They can gr
the post contract along with any of the statements that has required send it to the the county board executive uh superintendent and then bring it back and vote on it. That's why you have somebody me
That means that our kids are not getting all we should be able to do this for the sake of our children members as well and our We got to do this together. We got to come together. I don't always have to
make whatever idea you may have that make our community better, our kids better, our our test scores better, I'm have to fall with you. I'm have to go with you. And we need to learn how to get along and come together. I'm coming after
I'm coming after the system. We have to stop. We have to get along. is that we all live in the same community. We can't get along come together make a decision that's going to help our children which help our community. I don't understand
y'all but I will I will be addressing this. I won't let it I'm going to learn how to come together and put our put all the mess aside and let's be about our students. Let's be about our students. Let me say this. I don't mean
no harm. I am 100% going to college. Yes. Yes. $100,000. Not full. If we prepare them better for
they can get full scholarship. Next question. A parent has great child. One of the children from across country. mentioned today.
I had no mention at the next school board meeting. So good to hear that point. I know that you guys But we really as parents we really don't
get a lot of departments here as well. We don't know what's going on. We rely on younger children as far as
work. either on social media but my next meeting class and
I don't see that on the agenda my child is eighth grade student I know that it's been brought to um attention and I'm just wondering why it's not prioritized
at this time again by the time the next board meeting comes up and they still have not been approved for their eighth Mercy. out. I feel like language barrier. Everyone has everyone has been very
helpful. You can come here, you can talk to me. not waiting for student day. So I had to pull out of school Friday. I miss these are not missing work for
their children and I feel like down running out of love and my oldest child's one of those too. She's on her way of
me also she must help while she was being attacked. She goes out the door. Uh teacher, Mr. Turner, he runs to him for help now. And she's like, "Can you
help?" And he says, "No." He says no to my child. And he said, "Are you serious?" And he said, "Yes, I can't help you with that." And didn't even call for nothing. She had to run to another office. No one was there. Not their fault. probably transition, but
she's running around looking for help in school. I don't even feel comfortable going to work knowing that I get a call and something happened and nothing is happening or they're given the benefit of the doubt I
feel like because I don't I know it may sound weird, but I feel like it's the truth. And it's really really out of hand. They're ganging up on her. And I must say the staff is helpful, but I feel like they're telling me to hand a
police officer take your daughter out of school. Send her somewhere else. That's how bad the middle school is. I was so talking to everyone afterension afterension coming up there. I'm ready to pull her out
like her. I can't hear her. Okay. >> Hi, how are you? I believe that speak tomorrow. Thank you. You're welcome.
Next we have Mr. Page. May I have a motion to go into by second by Mr. M. Hello Mr. Willby the federal board of education may go

the importance of diagnosing our current state where we are to set goals and plan our district. Finally, I appreciate all the And I encourage you
to want to thank you for all you do. We want to wish you a happy Thanksgiving. Stay safe, stay, stay healthy, stay blessed. Um, we have two events that I
want to make of. Um, I mean, I'm sorry, Councilwoman here at our school on November 29th, right after Thanksgiving Thanksgiving, which is a little basketball tournament
that they'll be having here at Councilwoman also, which is Mrs. Her name is um she will be a place of love to community on November the 24th at the recreation
center from 2 to 5 at 400. So she'll be um seniors or anybody in the community that would like to have Thanksgiving dinner
on November 24th at the recreation center. And this is sponsored by Councilwoman. So if you know anyone that um probably want to come out or you know
Thanksgiving dinner or young until we meet again. Um and also um want to acknow our work staff members. You just have to give it
a chance. You can't their way. The way that we're trying to do things all the children not all the children we don't like behind
we want to make sure and whatever their needs are and you must understand the people. We are a group that we're not in a classroom.
We don't we're not scrubbing the floor. We're not doing the field. We approve things that come to us. We make sure that the district is run well. So sometimes up here for as
many years as I have been getting up here. You know, sometimes people come up and not run. We just ensure that our job
we're not in the That's why it maintain the board's fault. We're not we're not in the classroom teaching. We approve so
that people can teach these kids. So we're giving you custodians of material to work with. We approve that. Maybe security
Wheater, we send you on the superintendent. We're holding her accountable. So, I just thought that I hope I didn't offend nobody. I hope
nobody can't breathe. So with that, I just wanted to put that on the table. I didn't offend nobody. Um, I love once again. All in favor?
Good night.
