(Payment will be upon voucher submitted from funded account) Ms. Acquisto moved for the adoption of the Curriculum recommendations, seconded by Ms. Hardiman. There were no comments or questions from the Board or public. With all Board members present voting in favor, the foregoing was adopted.

Ms. Rotella presented the NJASK scores for grades 5, 6, 7 and 8. Ms. Rotella explained the results came in very late this year. Ms. Rotella stated she has received several telephone calls from parents regarding the scores. She explained that after the test was given in May and graded in June, the Commissioner of Education decided to raise the bar, changing the scoring procedures. Ms. Rotella stated under normal circumstances she supports the change, however, she stated the issue is that the changes were made after the test was administered. She explained the students mastered what the administration felt would be tested. Ms. Rotella stated in some areas the bar was raised 26%. Ms. Rotella gave an overview of what the scores were prior to the change as well as the actual test scores reflecting the change in scoring procedures.

Mr. Yuhasz thanked Ms. Rotella for the extensive report. He asked Ms. Rotella to reiterate why the change in scoring was made and who is responsible for the change. Ms. Rotella stated the Commissioner of Education, after seeing the scores, felt it was the time to raise the passing score on the test. Ms. Rotella stated the Commissioner acknowledged that by raising the bar, there would be significantly more children who are not proficient this year as compared to last year. Mr. Yuhasz clarified that this change was made last minute. Ms. Rotella stated all the tests were scored in June, the information was sent to Dr. Crowe and then the change occurred in July.

Ms. Hardiman thanked Ms. Rotella and Ms. Miller for reporting the test scores. Ms. Hardiman stated although the State has implemented last minute changes to the scoring, she is confident that the students will continue to excel. Ms. Rotella stated the children worked very hard and it is important that the parents, although feeling frustration, need to understand that it was not necessarily the children but how the tests were scored. Mr. Miloscia asked if the AYP data on the web-site reflects the 2007 or 2008 data. Ms. Rotella responded 2007, stating the AYP scores are just beginning to come in. Dr. Crowe stated it is dubious to change the rules after the tests have been taken. Dr. Crowe stated there is no doubt that the scores presented do not accurately reflect the students’ achievement from last year. Dr. Crowe stated the scores are unfair, however, the district will make “no excuses” and will see significant achievement in the future.

September 18, 2008

Mr. Molnar thanked the Administration for all their hard work on the testing issue. Mr. Molnar reminded the public that a Town Hall style meeting is being held on October 2, 2008 and an invitation has been extended to Commissioner of Education, Lucille Davy. Mr. Molnar stated he is hopeful she can attend so the issue of changing the scoring of the tests can be addressed directly with her.

Board Attorney, Viola Lordi, had nothing to bring before the Board for open session. Under "Old Business," Ms. Hardiman thanked Dr, Crowe for keeping the Board abreast of issues through the e-mail system. Ms. Leidner asked how block scheduling is going at Avenel Middle School. Ms. Rotella stated the teachers love block scheduling. She stated Mr. Kuzniak and her are in contact with each other regularly to discuss how block scheduling is working out in his school. Dr. Crowe stated the most important aspect of block scheduling is it lends to much greater flexibility. He stated the Administration will be looking to see if that is being accomplished as the school year progresses. Ms. Hardiman stated she feels block scheduling at the middle school level is wonderful because at this age level it prepares them better for high school. Mr. Miloscia stated he and Ms. Leidner attended many Open Houses where there was standing room only which is a tribute to the PTO’s the parents and students. Mr. Miloscia commented on the Mayor’s race held on August 31st. Ms. Rotella stated she agrees with Mr. Miloscia that the Open Houses were excellent. Ms. Rotella further stated that the local YMCA is offering free membership for the district’s 7th grade students. She stated tables were set up at the Open Houses for registration. Ms. Rotella stated that Dr. Crowe, Ms, Korodan, Ms. Miller and she visited the YMCA which has tremendous application for the children and is a completely supervised and healthy environment for children to be in. Mr. Small asked for an update on the athletic trainer at Woodbridge High School. Ms. Rotella stated many parents have expressed concern that the district has not been able, to date, to contract a trainer at Woodbridge High School. She stated every effort has been made to employ a trainer for the high school. Ms. Korodan explained the procedure to procure an athletic trainer. She stated the position has been advertised for almost a year for a trainer at Woodbridge High School through the NATA web-site, through the district’s web-site, through the New Jersey Hire, which is a free web-site offered to DOE participants and through the Star Ledger. Ms. Korodan stated there have been several applicants who are interested with approximately ten interviews, however, after offering a promise of employment, no one accepted the position. Ms. Korodan stated the position continues to be advertised. Ms. Rotella stated every effort is being made to assure the safety of the students, noting that on the Athletic and Extracurricular agenda and item was approved to have EMT’s at every game. Ms. Rotella commended Mr. Small for finding additional people who will cover the varsity games and any other games deemed necessary. Mr. Molnar asked for an update on the acquisition of solar panels. Mr. DeMarino explained the Governor recently signed the law approving the extension of agreements from 5 years to 15 years. He stated the Board of Public Utilities need to set their rates so it appears to be a few more months before that is settled. Mr. DeMarino stated he is working with a company who is willing to do a few schools on a 5 year contract. He is awaiting Board Attorney review of that agreement. He stated the schools to be completed are Colonia High School, Iselin Middle School, Indiana Avenue and Menlo Park Terrace. Mr. DeMarino stated he is hoping to have something to bring forward to the Board by October or November. He stated the savings will be tremendous. Mr. Molnar stated many people are concerned that the solar panels will damage the schools’ roofs. Mr. DeMarino stated it is a weighted system with no penetration of the roof. Mr. Molnar asked how much the district budgets for electric. Mr. DeMarino stated roughly over $1,000,000.00 in utilities, a large portion of that being for electric. Mr. Molnar thanked Mr. DeMarino for his continued work on the project. Under “New Business," Mr. Yuhasz acknowledged several completed projects which were handled through the Buildings and Grounds department. Mr. Yuhasz thanked Mr. D’Orsi and all Buildings and Grounds staff members for their diligence in completing the projects.

September 18, 2008

Mr. Yuhasz announced on Saturday evening, September 20th, Principal, Arthur Lee Warren, of Woodbridge High School, will be honored by the NAACP with the Educator Leadership Award at the Woodbridge Community Center. Mr. Molnar congratulated Mr. Warren on his accomplishment. Mr. Molnar also commended the Buildings and Grounds staff. Ms. Leidner advised the public of a new program entitled New Horizons Band of Woodbridge. Ms. Leidner explained New Horizons is a nationwide program that provides musical training and opportunities for adults who would like to learn how to play an instrument. Mr. Small stated that during the athletics meeting there was concern over the hockey times with the Community Center. He asked if that issue has been resolved. Ms. Rotella stated a year ago the Mayor stated the district would be allowed ice time at the Community Center at no charge. Ms. Rotella stated this year, without the Mayor’s involvement, USA Skates has not delivered the same schedule. Ms. Rotella stated, under the direction of the Committee, she will reach out to the Mayor to seek resolve to the scheduling. Ms. Rotella explained that other districts are paying for ice time resulting in the Community Center moving the ice time for the district. Mr. Small asked Ms. Rotella to keep him advised of the outcome of her meeting with the Mayor. Mr. Miloscia announced on Sunday, October 5th Colonia will be holding their Colonia Day parade beginning at 1:00 p.m. at School #21. Mr. Molnar asked for an update on the new hot lunch program instituted at the elementary schools. Mr. DeMarino explained a new how lunch program through Preferred Meals was implemented at the 16 elementary schools. He further explained the meals are being heated and served at each location as compared to being prepared in the morning and driven to the elementary schools at 11:00 a.m. Mr. DeMarino stated the reviews have been excellent. He stressed the most important feature is the meals are heated and served on site. Mr. DeMarino commended the Board for implementation of this program. Mr. Molnar reiterated that the meals continue to be served by our district employees. Mr. DeMarino stated the district employees have been trained to use the convection ovens and continue to serve the meals as they did with the satellite program. Mr. Molnar stated he realizes it was a lot of work for the cafeteria staff and Buildings and Grounds staff to get the program started but the reward is seeing the children enjoy the meals. Ms. Rotella stated there are many children who qualify for free lunch but do not submit the paperwork. Ms. Rotella stated she hopes anyone listening who isn’t sure if they qualify for free lunch will contact the building principal for assistance in completing the form. Mr. Molnar announced that on October 18th from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 noon, the Mayor’s Health Expo will be held at the Club at Woodbridge. Mr. Molnar also announced the Town Hall-Style meeting will be held on Thursday, October 2nd at 7:00 p.m. at Matthew Jago School #28. The Board President opened the meeting to the public. During this portion, P. Ballotta, Woodbridge asked if any additional bond reimbursement money has been received. Mr. DeMarino advised that money should be wired tomorrow in an amount of approximately $1,000,000. Mr. DeMarino stated he is in constant contact with Senator Vitale for assistance in expediting reimbursement. Mr. Ballotta asked if any additional inspections were done. Mr. DeMarino stated the State waived some inspections because they were falling so far behind. He stated there are two inspectors for the entire state. Mr. DeMarino commended the Board and Spiezle on a job well done. Mr. Ballotta stated the test scoring is not only confusing and upsetting to the parents but also difficult because you need to work with two different books when comparing to previous years. Mr. Ballotta also stated that children, maybe 2 or 3 years apart, will now be dramatically different with their test scores. Mr. Ballotta agrees that the scoring probably should have been changed, however, feels there should have been a 9 month lead time. Dr. Crowe stated the comparison that the State has made in the past has never been with the same cohort. Dr. Crowe stated the comparison is with the same grade level the

73

September 18, 2008

following year. Dr. Crowe stated if the comparison was made between the 5th grade students in 2006 to the 6th grade students in 2007, the district would be able to monitor the improvement of the students. Mr. Miloscia thanked the technology crew for improving the sound system at the Board meeting. Mr. Small then presented to the Board for its consideration, a resolution for a Closed Session to discuss subjects exempted from the public portion of the meeting. The discussion to be held in Closed Session will be about personnel matters which include: resignations; retirements; leaves of absences; level movements; salary adjustments; approval of employee salaries paid from grant funds; transfer of certified and non-certified staff; appointments of certified and non-certified staff; appointments and changes for summer work, coaches, and home instructors; professional development and committee appointments for the 2008-2009 school year; appointments of Family Writing and Family Science Instructors; appointment of advisors which include Clubs, Extra-curricular, and After-School Activities; appointments of substitutes as follows: teachers, school aides, paraprofessionals, cafeteria, secretarial, bus attendants, bus drivers, custodians; and approval of employee agreements for Central Office Administrators: Lois Rotella, Angela Korodan, Dennis DeMarino, Rita Miller.
