Thank you. Superintendent's remarks. Just want to welcome everyone on this uh beautiful spring day. Uh, and uh we have a presentation this evening from the business administrator's office. I see
many of the team members here. I want to thank you all for your hard work. Uh and our director of uh buildings and grounds and uh probably enough so many people I would miss any but we know the work that goes into this not on our end but on
your end and we stay out of your way but we appreciate you getting it done. Uh thank you Jane uh for all the work that you do to see this come to fruition. And so we're excited tonight just to share that information with you. Uh but prior to our presentation, I just just want to
call our attention back to uh prior to spring break uh the losses that we had. I hope that we're all keeping those families and uh friends and people close to us and in our thoughts. And if you have an opportunity to connect with the
families, if it works for you, please don't hesitate to do so. Um, that being said, I am going to turn the program over, I think, to Mrs. Howard for presentation or to Mr. Dhart. Right back right to Miss No, I'll leave my remarks
for later. Right to the presentation. Thanks, Jane. Okay. What did you do? Drop it. Oh, it's in it. Good evening board members, President Truheart. Okay, board members,
superintendent, leadership team, and colleagues, it's a pleasure and an honor for us to present our 2526 budget for your approval today. It was approved at the county office on April 1st, April
Fool's Day, but um very early, a week after, no, two weeks after we submitted our budget. But we're very thankful and grateful for the amount of money that we received. And we also like the fact that we were able to keep all of our operations, all of our programs, all of
our staffing intact. So there were no layoffs 100%. If there was, it's not because of fiscal reasons, it's operational reasons. So as you see our mission statement which was read by our board president and our district priorities which the superintendent went
over in our April meeting in our March meeting and as you see the components student achievement parent and community partnership engagement developing the whole child staff development and well-being and facilities infrastructure.
So, as we're looking at our budget and we really look at it overall, I'd like you to take a look at our enrollment because it appears that we have about 20,000 students, but we only have on roll
13,000 13,000 because 5,000 is educated outside of the district, which is our out of district regular, our out of district special ed, our state facilities, and our preschool. school which we have 17
providers but 35 different sites one in Lawrence I believe one in Hamilton two in Euing and the other 17 are in Trenton we also have our charter schools that's 3,438 students we have reduced them out
of the mix so we still have about six charter schools that are operating in Trenton Our budget process is a long process and everyone is involved in the process starting with you, our board members who set the priorities and the parameters for the superintendent who then set the
parameters for leadership staff and we get everyone involved from leadership, leadership at the school level, our two teachers who are the closest with the students and everyone else who want to participate in our budget process. It's not done at the central office by us and
we just put everything together. It's a long process and we ensure that everyone is involved because it is a balancing act to ensure that we include all of our pillars which is classroom instruction, curricular and staff development which is goal one and four,
guidance, counseling and support which is goal three, athletics and clubs is goal three, parent community engagement goal two, access to technology and quality programs as you see the technology you have in front of our board members and also our
facilities management. Our budget goals is focused on ensuring every possible dollar is invested in our students. That's number one. We empower staff members to grow through focused professional development. We have thoughtful
realignment, reallocation of resources, continue focus on security building and infrastructure. and we continue identifying efficiency improvements throughout our budget process. I won't go through the whole budget calendar, but I want you to look
at where we start, which is October with our operations committee going over our budget calendar and then we end at the public hearing at the end of April. So, if you see between October and April, there's a lot of things that go on to
ensure that we have a student-based balanced budget. this year, which was a good thing, our district received $22 million. It seems like a lot of money, which it is, and we're very thankful for the 22 million that we received, but if you look at how
it was allocated to us over this year compared to our prior years, it was a little different. our equalization aid which is paid per enrollment and our residential enrollment is 17,000 students we received an additional $ 38
million. Our special aid aid was an additional $4 million. Transportation aid went down because transportation is all students is elementary beyond two miles secondary beyond 2.5 miles. So if we are
transporting other students, we will not receive the funding. It's courtesy busing for us, but if we feel like we can do that for our parents, we will. But our allocation went down. Our security aid went up 321,000 and our adjustment aid went down
by 20 million. And the reason why our adjustment aid went down, because I'm sure you're aware of this, Gerald, once this funding formula came in place, we received, and I say we, the former Abbott districts received an additional amount of money because we were held
harmless. We were at a negative 2%, two or 3%, which you can't start your budget in a negative deficit. So, with that being said, they gave all of us $20 million. Well, this year they took it away, but they did add it into our equalization aid. So, we pretty much
didn't miss not receiving that amount of money. So, our allocation came to 22,627 $105. So, that is a mouthful. But, um we think um now we think we know we put together a balanced budget which is
studentfriendly, parent friendly, and staff friendly. And at this time, I'm going to have Miss Mitchell come up and go over our grant funding, our two-year budget, and our expenditures. And then it'll be followed by Mr. Mosley, who will go over our
facilities improvements. I can. Thank you, Jane. Good evening, board members, superintendent, uh, board, board president, and community. I just want to start off, this is off script, but I I'm I want to
say it. I'm a former Trenton student and very proud of it. So, this is personal because the first time I ever uh graced the stage of the board meeting, I was a student at Junior 3, which we know now as Holland Middle School, on the debate
team. And back then, they were actually having layoffs. And I remember uh as a student we were really we were really disappointed because we had some great teachers that we were losing and as students we had no understanding of this process. So it's it's really nice to be
here today one as a former student here but uh serving this community but also to be in a space where we know there's no layoffs. So that's that's wonderful. So thank you for letting me go off script there. So, I'm going to start by going over uh the general review for the
two-year comparison. This page here is mostly our revenues. We're going to start off with excess fund balance and our excess fund balance for our 2526 budget at 15 million. You'll see that's a decrease of about 27 million over the
prior year here. And that number is basically our fund balance that ends from the previous budget year. So what you see for 25 that's funding 2526 that's the excess that was generated from our 2324 end of school year and 42
would have been the prior year from that. Um our maintenance reserve withdrawals for the current year are 5 a 12 and 4 million. We're clearly not in 2526 yet. So those withdrawals will be as targeted when 25 when we're in 2526.
adjustments for prior year expenditures. Again, we won't have those yet because we ended the 2023 24 school year with 11 million in purchase orders that rolled into our current year. And so, as we present next year, we'll know what
carryover what POS that roll into the subsequent year. Local tax levy is an increase of 2% about 500,000. uh the Medicaid reimbursement spent semi that is not something that we we budget for but we're actually giving that
number from the state. So that's a significant decrease. Um however there is some speculation that they may change but that number we had to go with the number that was provided to us by the state and so that's what you see there. Miscellaneous revenues about 828,000. There's a reduction there about
366,000. Most of that is uh attributable to our e- rate. um extraordinary aid is consistent. That application is due shortly and uh we're using basically a standard percentage because you don't actually know if that in that number is going to
increase. Uh our state aid as Jane just presented is a $22 million net increase and our grants are almost exactly 22 million as a decrease. Um, we'll go over that in the next page, but most of that is due to ESSER funding that ended
September 30th, 2024. So, here you'll see the breakdown for those two years. Um, for the two years, majority of it, uh, up here we have the preschool education aid. We actually had an increase half a percent almost 233,000.
uh our transfer from our operating budget. That's what the district supports within the preschool budget for our special needs students that attend our prek programs. Title one, you'll see a reduction of about 5 million. Most of that is because the 11 million that
we're budgeting for 2526 is our whole allocation. The 2425 school year actually has carryover included in that figure. So that 16 million includes the current year as well as carryover from the previous year. Whereas 2526 just has
the current year award. Title 2, three, four, and IDA exactly the same. You're seeing the current year allocation um without carryover restricted entitlements. Most of that is our school youthbased services program there and a
few other uh state grants. our local grants there. You'll see 68,000 that is our New Jersey SIG allocation. Um we don't have many of the things that are in 2425 because you don't know if you're going to get those. Those are a lot of
the local grants that you'll hear uh your uh our board member uh Buoie speaks about on each each one. So those you don't know if you're going to get them. We do anticipate getting some, but it's you don't want to budget something that's not guaranteed. So there we're
budgeting for New Jersey SIG uh non-public STEM grant student activities and uh scholarship fund reserve. Those are on average. This is the second page to our our grant revenue. As you can see, 22 million. Again, most of that is due to
our title one and our our ESSER awards. Most of that was at the end of the COVID relief and so you won't see it again and we're actually don't have it now to spend because those grant awards ended September 30th, 2024. This is a pie chart that just kind
of gives you a breakdown of where our funding primarily uh comes from. So to have a piece of the pie, who's contributing to this big portion of the buy is state aid. So state tax dollars are were funded 79%
uh of that 12% of it uh is our grants with our which are federal awards and some uh small state awards in there but most of that is federal. Our excess fund balance uh which is that 15 million we discussed is 3%.
um our local tax levy. So our city contributes 5% to our budget and uh extraordinary aid is almost 1%. The rest of them you can see they're 0%. They they is contributions there but not
significant enough to make it through a percent. And these are our expenditures. So, starting off with our school-based budgets, uh you will see that we have a increase about 10% which is equivalent to almost $17 million. Uh so, most of our funding is
going into our schools. Our charter school does show a decrease. Most of that is primarily due to STEM civics's closing. Our out of district tuition is increasing by 4.8 million. Um may seem
significant. There's about a $2 million adjustment from prior year. There's a a audited adjustment just like we have an audited adjustment at the end of the year some of our schools. So sometimes we're paying bills. We'll pay a a tuition bill in one
year. But after they have their audit if their expenditures are higher, then they go seek back to schools that are out of district. They seek for that difference. And we get state um audited student adjustments, tuition adjustments. And so we have about a $2 million adjustment
that's due back to Mercer County Special Services. And that's a big portion of that 4.8. Um the adult program, um very insignificant, uh increase there, about $3,000. Uh central office, you'll see it
looks significant at 42 million. The majority of that is within buildings and grounds. uh in the previous year we infuse quite a bit of funding in for uh construction services the program about 15 million in the project over at Tangga
and some other program Ziggler uh other construction projects I'm sorry I didn't mean to refer to them as programs um districtwide you'll see a very small um change there grants again 22 million and then our contribution to school-based
budgets that's our title one award 3.4 million of that is going into our schools to our school-based budgets. And this is our pie chart to show you where the expenditures are breaking down. So 37% of that pie is
directly at the school level, which is our teacher, principal salaries, and all of those individuals that are housed at schools. But you'll note down at the bottom where it says central office. We don't want it to look like central office is equal to our schools, but
there's a lot of things that are classified in the central office budget. However, there are supports at the school level which are our athletic program, our our medical program, BNG, transportation, um, bilingual and special
services, which pretty much 100% is supported uh, at the schools. Um so here we have your adult program is zero out of district tuition is 7% of those total expenditures. Charter schools 14%. So
total there is about 21% of that pie is students that are serviced outside the district meaning charters and our out of district tuition. Moving back up to the pie some of the smaller portions up there. We have 2% of that is into our school-based budget. So but it's grant
funded. So, we put that out separately, but technically you're talking about 39% school-based plus grant uh contribution to schoolbased budgets, 12% in grants, and 3% districtwide, which will be our health benefits, and so
forth. Now, I'm going to turn it over to my colleague, Mr. Musli. Thank you. down for us. Good evening. Uh Dwayne Mosley, facilities administrator. Uh I am going to pick up
from where my colleagues have left off. Um keeping in line with the district goals and priorities. Uh we're pretty much carrying over as uh Miss Mitchell just alluded to some of the expenditures that's carrying over from the previous year. uh a lot of our projects are
directly um I would say the carryover uh is really more so as a result of not being able to work in a school that's not occupied. So uh working in off hours you know weekends if necessary three months over the course of the well
actually it's not even a total three months two two months over the summer is really not enough to get a lot of the work done that we need to get done. So, a lot of the carrier is a result of that in excuse me, in addition to some of the uh delays that we get with some of the equipment deliveries and things of that
nature. But, as uh I was making mention to, we're we're moving forward with uh building shelves, which is really the the the main base for making sure that the buildings are secure and being able to provide indoor air quality and and
meet the standards for health and safety reasons that we are looking to go with. Um, we've been piss peace milling and I'm I'm excited to say we're probably about 85 about 85% of our school roof systems are are practically new and now under a full warranty. So, that's that's
something that, you know, definitely to to feel good about. Uh, we're moving forward uh with our capital city. We've been working on that over the course of the last year and a half. So, uh we probably about I'd say 65% right now with the building being complete for
100%. So we are looking to do the next stage of roofing for that particular facility. Uh the buildings and grounds and maintenance as well as the Gregory school is uh a new HV systems that's going to be installed in the buildings. Buildings and grounds are maintenance complex has been without a air
conditioning system now for about three years. Uh we've been pretty much dealing with it and just you know we wanted to make sure that all the schools were addressed prior to taking care of any of the non-educational facilities. uh Gregory School. We've been hacking away at that one. We've been having some
problems over the course of the last year or so. Uh we've gone in and we've addressed some of the VAVs, which is operations for the actual classrooms within the building. Over the the break just recently, we installed window units as a backup unit. Uh until the summer
comes where we're able to go in and attack the actual building system, which we're looking to to move forward with this process here. our Hedgep Williams again building shell. Uh we've addressed quite a few windows throughout the district. However, some of our our block
or glass block windows we've kind of left behind and and now we're going back and we're kind of making sure that we can address the rest of the facility. Uh Hedgep Williams is one of the schools that has a larger glass block which is certainly from a excuse me heating
perspective as well as uh from cold it's not really uh a conductor of heat or or keeping our warm air in the building. Uh districtwide control systems uh we've been at this now for somewhere over 20 years. So, it's now time where we're
starting to go back and we're revamping the systems and replacing some of the car parts and and systems within the system. But, uh, all of our buildings right now are 100% under our building management system, which certainly is more efficient over overall for the cost and also allows us to have a, uh,
computer controlled based system. Our capital city and junior one uh, will be getting the new boiler systems, install them. Uh, believe it or not, these buildings are now 20 years old and uh, you know, unfortunately, unlike some of our our past building construction, we
don't get the useful life that we used to from some of our building systems. So, our old cast iron boilers and things of that nature or things of the past. However, some of these new as much as you want to use the word high efficiency, it it's high efficiency for a se a period of time and then you start
having the high efficiency problems that comes with it. So, we are looking to uh, replace those systems. Uh total cost right now that's estimated is $10 million. And uh I'll just like to say first of all, thank you to the board for his commitment that uh has been put on
our facilities department. Uh certainly we're going to miss the grants overall. We've been living high off the hog with the grants and being able to do a lot of things that's much needed for our facilities. However, uh both the board and and and Miss Howard has uh been espe es especially gracious with the
facilities department and making sure that we have the funding we need to maintain our schools and keep them up and conducive for our students for learning. Thank you. Turn it off. Okay. the expense breakdown. As you heard from my colleagues, we really did
we believe that we put a lot of things and a lot of investments in our budget. Now, if we look at how we broke things down for a dollar standpoint, you will see where our priorities lie. If you look at classroom instruction, that's almost 30 cents, right? And that's
broken down to regular education, bilingual education, ESL, special ed, every student that's on roll. That's the breakdown for classroom instruction. Undistributed expenses is all out of district. Out of district
charter school, which is really close, that's 23 cents. It's out of district, charter schools, aids that are out of district and in district from Kelly Services. We also have OTP from one of our agencies. That's
almost 23 cents. Then we look at support services which is our central office our schoolbased services our school principles we're at 18 cents operational which is Mr. Mosley plant construction
buildings and grounds maintenance mechanic and labors special programs is grants capital outlay is equipment and co-curricular is athletics but if we look at that our main piece is classroom instruction
because we do understand that our number one priority is ensuring that our students are learning even though everything else is wonderful. We know all of our pillars are everything's important but we all know that our parents are come here because of our
instructional program. So if we look at that we can see that our priorities do go to classroom instruction even though 23 cent goes out of district but that still is instruction for us because there students being instructed out of district. In conclusion as Miss Mitchell
stated we received $22.6 6 million from the state. 15 million was excess surplus that we generated over the year. Now, we probably won't have that for 2627 because with the new governor coming in, they're going to look at
excess funding differently because it's not the mandated 2%. It's the percentage that we generate in our budget. So, we know we have 15 million this year. Academic investments was almost $10 million, which is excellent. We put
almost $10 million in our schools for the 2526 school year. We also had a lot of techn technology and facility upgrades and managing financial risks to ensure that we're not just throwing money out the window that everything we
do is deliberate and by design and that that our students are at the core. So at this time we will entertain your questions or comments on the budget from the facility standpoint, financial standpoint or just overall questions.
Uh if I can start um I want to say thank you to the three of you for this wonderful presentation. I just have two questions. Um, I passed by the building that's going up on Cal I believe Brunswick
Avenue, the new charter school. That's where where Bean was. Is that Roberson Roberson? No. Will will the will this the when that school starts when it's open and
operational will that impact um our budget in any way like or will we have students going to that school or Oh, absolutely. We'll have students. It's a charter school. So, they will be treating students. It's already established a charter school. They're
just moving into a new building. I understand. Okay. Okay. I thought it was already impacted in Okay. I didn't realize this. I I just thought it was I thought it was a new school. Okay. All right. Thank you. I had another question for um Mr. Mosley. Um Mr. Mosley, can you and you
already mentioned what capital system upgrades were generally? But what specifically are those? Control system. Control system. Sorry. Yes. So, uh, it's a building management system that allows all of our
plumbing and our mechanical systems to be placed into a computer, allows us to, uh, well, basically the computer actually functions as an operation system. So, our boiler systems, uh, as opposed to having someone to physically come in and shut down the boilers
because it's too hot in the building, once the that temperature is achieved, the system would recognize it and the system would shut the bowler down in a timely manner. So it's more efficient. So in the off hours and weekends when we're not utilizing the building, we can maintain a certain temperature in the
building that's a lot less than the 72 uh uh the 68 to 72 that's typically required. We can keep the building at uh maybe a 62 level which is certainly a lot lower. The building system is not running. Um if it does become occupied or or or even even if there's a
detection that the building is overheating, it automatically sends an alarm to our mechanic who has a laptop or on his phone. now and it'll send an alarm to let them know either the bowler shut down or the system shut down for whatever reason or another. So it's it's all computer based and it allows us uh
to be more efficient with with maintaining the system. Thank you. Certainly. So I don't have a question. I simply want to say um thank you to the financial team and certainly very happy to see that um our funding our financial position is great. Well, let's say very
good and that um we have no uh no layoffs that are related to funding because I I read a lot about other school districts and um you know and and certainly offer my concern and sympathy to them but then I'm also very happy that we don't have the same situation
here in terms of u funding. So I just want to say you know in terms of managing our funding and making sure that we are good uh financial team has done a great job with that and certainly um we look forward to that continuing and I also um you know very appreciative of the fact that uh schoolbased funding
has increased um because of course our needs are different and our needs are um uh it requires a little bit more to address our needs at the school level and so certainly glad to see that funding levels are increasing at the school level. So those are my comments. Thank you.
Thank you. Thank you team for that great presentation and our our budget superintendent. We appreciate uh the work that you're doing and your team with Jane Howard and her team. Um so thank you so much guys. Appreciate appreciate all you're doing.
Absolutely. I just I also wanted to just uh recognize the school leadership teams and the principles and administrators in buildings. I know that Miss Howard alluded to the input that they uh
provide, but it's a long process. We start at the school level. We kind of end with the schools talking about the budget uh and what we will add in terms of staffing and programming. And so uh that comes from the school leadership
teams which are comprised of teachers and and pair of professionals and different people in that building along with the principles. So we're very excited about uh when we create a budget that include is that's inclusive of so many of our staff members. It's really
exciting. Uh and so we really appreciate all the work of all of the people in the district. Thank you. We have no public participation. So, we'll move on to board discussion, action, and consent agenda. I do need to
I do need to to add in the addendum to the consent agenda. So, I'd like a motion to add in the consent the addendum for new hires.
We hired we had to we hired some new teachers. We wanted to have that on the agenda as an addendum to hire get the teachers hired. So moved. So we need we need a motion to to amend the agenda. So moved. Properly moved and seconded. Roll call.
Gerald Truhart. Yes. Denise Johnson. Yes. Jean Buouie absent. Addie Dames Lane. Yes. Austin Edwards. Yes. Yolanda Lopez absent. Larry Trailer absent. Jeannie Wickland. Yes. Motion passed.
And just a little bit of discussion on the addendum. We wanted to make sure as you recall not to have too many addendums present to the board at the last minute. However, uh when it's uh new hires and personnel related uh hires
that we have people have to hire into the district, we do uh make an exception to that. I have had a conversation with the superintendent. We have made this known, made this clear in terms of our protocol for anything when we do accept dendums and this is one of those
instances because we want to make sure uh that we get the folks hired on boarded right away. Uh but we will we will do a better job in getting this information out to the board uh earlier. Thank you. Any more discussion on the consent
agenda this time to discuss any any conversation on the consent agenda? Have a motion to approve the consent agenda. So moved. Second. Probably moved and seconded. Roll call. Gerald Truhart. Yes. Denise Johnson. Yes. Jean Buouie absent. Addie Daniels
Lane. Yes. Austin Edwards. Yes. Yolanda Lopez absent. Larry Driller absent. Jeannie Week. Yes. Motion passed. Board member comments. I do have a few housekeeping items. I'll go first. Um just wanted to make sure uh the board
starts the C CSA evaluation on online. Please um start start that process. We want to work to get that done or at least our part done um by Monday. So I appreciate if everyone would log in and and start that process. Very important.
Uh, also a reminder that May 12th, our board meeting is at 8:00 a.m. on May 12th. Uh, because of our Mercer County board meeting with um our excuse me, 8:30. 8:30. 8 I thought it was 8:00. 8:30.
I thought it was 8 on uh on that day. I thought the 8:30s were the June the June meetings. Yeah, I think it's it's 8 o'clock. It should be 8. Did you advertise for 8:30? you did. All right. All
right. So, we'll we'll rectify that. Uh May 12th is our early early meeting because uh Mercer County School Board meeting and recognizing one of our teachers as teacher of the year as well as some many of our board members will
be recognized as certified board members and master board members at that meeting. So, I would encourage everyone to sign up for that meeting. Um you can sign up online. You should re have received an email from the Mercer County uh president. Uh so you should be able
to sign up to attend that meeting to support um our team. We did receive uh two candidates for our board vacancy. I wanted all the board members to know. Uh Denelli Dillion and Corey McNair are the two names that we've received so far. U we
do need to put together questions. We did give an extended time frame for board members to present questions for the candidates. Um and we will continue to to look for more questions from our board members. Uh we will develop those board questions in our governance
committee. um as we meet uh over the next week or so and prayerfully over our ne over the next week or so, we may in fact receive some additional uh board candidates for the vacancy left by Asasa when she uh we
uh she resigned from the board. That's all I have for for tonight for up upkeep upkeep and some housekeeping items. Anyone else have any board comments? Uh just very briefly, uh wanted to uh I
said this uh behind the scenes, but I want to say it publicly as well. Uh salute the superintendent for your uh attendance uh for the immigrants rights conference that we had. I'm putting on my NAACP hat. Um I think it was very important um speaking about uh places
where um you know, you can be free from uh safety of the federal administration, ICE, Homeland Security, and all that. and he did an amazing job explaining to the community that um our schools are safe, right? That uh we want kids to
continue to attend. Um that and also teaching kids and parents also um you know uh what to do if you're threat of danger or anything like that, but really just highlighting the fact that uh the schools are a safe place to come. Uh we shouldn't be neglecting our kids uh from
coming in and feeling like this is a great place to learn. So, uh, thank you super, uh, for all your commitment, not just for this event, but for our community as a whole. Definitely appreciate that. Any new business? Seeing a motion to adjurnn.
