Comm. Mendez read the Open Public Meetings Act:

The New Jersey Open Public Meetings Act was enacted to insure the right of the public to have advance notice of, and to attend the meetings of the Paterson Public School District, as well as other public bodies at which any business affecting the interest of the public is discussed or acted upon.

In accordance with the provisions of this law, the Paterson Public School District has caused notice of this meeting:

Regular Meeting November 10, 2010 at 7:00 p.m. John F. Kennedy High School 61-127 Preakness Avenue Paterson, New Jersey

to be published by having the date, time and place posted in the office of the City Clerk of the City of Paterson, at the entrance of the Paterson Public School offices, and by sending notice of the meeting to the Arab Voice, El Diario, the Italian Voice, the North Jersey Herald & News, and The Record.

Comm. Best: Before we begin the meeting, I’m going to ask that everyone please silence their cell phones. Turn them off, if possible. It does interfere with the recording equipment.

Page 1 11/10/10 REPORT OF STATE DISTRICT SUPERINTENDENT

Dr. Evans: I have two items to update you on, and in fact I'm not sure if this is the opportune time, Mr. President, but last evening we began a discussion on the Board goals as the Board had requested. We also added or expanded the list of goals to include indicators of success and hopefully the Board has had a chance to take a look at them. We also determined targets - where do we want to go and where do we want to be by the end of this year, specific to the targets that are indicated there. It also gives you the current status as it relates to the indicators. For example, with New Jersey ASK proficiency for grades 3-8 we give you the current proficiency levels as a result of spring 2010 testing. But then we identify targets for this spring’s testing and we won't get the results, however, until late summer or early fall. I believe that's consistent with what the Board requested. We identified targets for each one of the goals and strategies. Again, I know that the Board at some point wants to have a follow-up discussion around them and if that's tonight I'm prepared to do that. If not, then whenever the Board desires to have that conversation then we’re prepared. I would pause to see what your desire is, Mr. President.

*Comm. Rodriguez enters the meeting at 7:19 p.m.

Comm. Best: I'm thinking that we probably want to do it at our next meeting because that way we can adopt the district goals as well as the Board goals. Right now we’re in the process of developing the Board goals. So at our next meeting we’ll adopt both the district and the Board goals together.

Dr. Evans: Okay. In the meantime, if there are Board members who would like for me to consider additional information to bring to you when we have that discussion so that I can have it integrated already then I'm happy to hear from you. The second item is QSAC. There have been questions and concerns that the Board has had with regards to receiving the QSAC information. I was in communication with the Commissioner’s office today and I was informed that the Commissioner now has the results. She is reviewing the results herself and will be getting to them very soon. It was noted, however, that everyone should be reminded that we have had a change in Commissioner. This process began under one Commissioner and now we have another Commissioner in place, but we should be hearing from them very soon. That's it, Mr. President.

PUBLIC COMMENTS

It was moved by Comm. Mendez, seconded by Comm. Rodriguez that the Public Comments portion of the meeting be opened. On roll call all members voted in the affirmative. The motion carried.

Ms. Vivian Gaines: Good evening Dr. Evans, Comm. Best, other members of the Board, and members of the Paterson community. I am Vivian Gaines, President of Paterson Alumni Chapter of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. I, along with my sorors, am here this evening to formally introduce our sorority and our services to the education community of Paterson. Our 97-year-old public service organization was founded on the campus of Howard University in Washington, D.C. by 22 women who were committed to public service. Our mission is to use our collective strength to provide academic excellence, to provide scholarships, to provide support to the underserved, to educate and stimulate participation in the establishment of positive public policy, and to highlight issues and provide solutions for problems in our communities. The Paterson Alumni Chapter has assessed the needs of this community and determined that

Page 2 11/10/10 educational development must be a primary focus for our Chapter. As a result, more than 10 years ago we implemented two of our national signature programs in this community. The Dr. Betty Shabazz Delta Academy was created out of an urgent sense that bold action was needed to save our young females ages 11-14 from the perils of academic failure, low self-esteem, and crippled futures. Delta Academy provides an opportunity for us to enrich and enhance the education of our teens in our public schools. Specifically, we augment their scholarship in math, science, and technology, while providing opportunities in the form of leadership through service opportunities. For ages 14-18, the Dr. Jeanne Noble Delta GEMS Program, which is an acronym for Growing and Empowering Myself Successfully, was created to catch the dreams of the at-risk adolescent girls. Our interactive lessons are centered around scholarship, sisterhood, finance, and service. They form a roadmap for college and career planning. Topics within the major components assist our participants in achieving a can-do attitude. During the 09-10 year, we embraced the vision of the Board of Education Parent Resource Center and became a participant in the Adopt-A-School Program. We began our partnership with School 10 by adopting the third grade classes with the goal of working with them through the eighth grade graduation to evaluate. At the end of their eighth grade, we will measure the impact we had on working with one group of children over a period of time. During 2009, we provided school supplies for each student and career-based speakers exposing students to technical and non-technical careers. The speakers included a dentist, lawyer, law enforcement officer, municipal administrator, and pharmaceutical sales representative. Our goal for the upcoming year is to promote financial literacy. In conclusion, the members of Paterson Alumni Chapter recognize that many of our programs could not have gone forth without the support of this Board. The Paterson Board of Education has consistently supported us by allowing our presence in the facilities. Just last month on your agenda A-11 we were granted an opportunity to serve and have the School of Performing Arts at School 6 as our home facility. Through support from entities such as yourselves, we have presented thousands of dollars in scholarships to graduates from Paterson Public Schools. As a non-profit organization no part of our net income comes from anything other than the community that we serve and those that make contributions. So on behalf of the 200,000 Deltas, some throughout the State of New Jersey, some across the nation, and some abroad, we thank you for your continued support of community service organizations, your continued support of this community, and foremost, your continued support of our youth. Have a good evening and may your efforts lead to success for our school district and greatness for our youth. Have a good night.

*Comm. Guzman enters the meeting at 7:25 p.m.

Dr. Randie O’Neil: Good evening Dr. Evans and members of the Board, my name is Dr. Randie O’Neil. I'm a Student Assistance Counselor at Riverdale Regional High School. I'm also the Vice President of the Association of Student Assistance Professionals. I'm also a resident of Paterson, so I'm pleased to speak here tonight. Last week, I had the pleasure of speaking at the teacher’s convention. I presented a program on the importance of intervention and prevention programs on the developing adolescent brain. We know as adults that our brains are different than adolescents and that we’re wired differently. Adolescents have not formed their prefrontal lobes. They’re thinking with the primitive part of their brains, their amygdala and their hippocampus. We know this. We also know that during adolescence there’s now a proliferation of white matter in the brain. This white matter is going to be pruned during adolescence. Parts of the brain that are being used are going to be reinforced and carried into adult life. If kids become involved with drugs, alcohol, they’re abused, or they’re depressed, when they go into adolescence those are the pathways that get solidified and strengthened. It's up to the interventions of schools to help carry out interventions and make appropriate referrals to

Page 3 11/10/10 make sure that each one of our students has the opportunities to develop as appropriately as possible. Adolescence is a time where you use your white brain matter or you lose it. This is a key opportunity for us to take advantage and do the best that we can. New Jersey has some of the best statutes on record, New Jersey Statute 18A:40A, to have one of the best prevention programs in schools. When it first started it was a substance abuse program. Our program has expanded because we know the importance of interventions to every individual. So the role of the SACs has really expanded. There is a concern here that the number of SACs over the years has been decreasing and with texting going on it's more interesting to text. Kids think with their amygdalas. So it's up to us to be able to intervene and develop programs to keep them on track. What we do now is going to pay off for our community down the road. Thank you for your time.

Mr. Corey Teague: Good evening, my name is Corey Teague. A couple of weeks ago, Dr. Evans, I presented some questions to you concerning my daughter’s IEP services. I wanted to know why those services were cut in the first place. I also asked you what could be done or what is being done to see that those services are reinstated and when will those services be reinstated. To this date, I haven't received an answer. So I'm here again tonight. I'm not trying to push anyone’s buttons, but I'm fighting for my daughter. I believe that she deserves an education just like anyone else. So if there's any way you can answer those questions for me, I would greatly appreciate it.

Dr. Evans: I would ask that one of our staff members get your phone number and if you’re available Friday morning, since we’re not in session tomorrow, then you and I will sit and talk and make sure that I get to you all of the answers that you've requested. One of my staff members is behind you, Ms. Riviello.

Ms. LaSanda Sheppy: Good afternoon Dr. Evans, my name is LaSanda Sheppy and my son Matthew Sheppy attends the Headstart school on 35th Street. For some strange reason we were never notified that service was either frozen or cancelled. We have had several phone calls and meetings. We were in the Record today and still we haven't gotten any answer as to when services will be reinstated, were there enough therapists hired to service the kids that are missing so many hours, or will services be extended into the summer. We have somewhat of a block in communication. No one’s returning our calls. No one is pretty much fighting for our kids in Paterson. We pay our taxes and we won't shut up. So I need for someone to tell me, will services be started in January? What teams will be assigned? How many people will be in those teams to go out and execute those hours that are missing? I hope that you can answer those within the next week.

Dr. Evans: Actually, we asked that staff contact parents one-on-one last week and earlier this week. I apologize that one of our staff members has not talked directly with you. I will also make an appointment and I’ll contact you directly to meet with you Friday morning as well.

Ms. Sheppy: Okay, my cell phone is on the sheet.

Dr. Evans: Okay. Good. Thank you.

Ms. Nakeima Monroe: My name is Nakeima Monroe. My son attends Concerned Parents for Headstart. I wanted to know what steps will be taken so this won't happen in the future.

Dr. Evans: Do we have your phone number as well?

Page 4 11/10/10

Ms. Monroe: Yes, it's on the paper.

Dr. Evans: We’re going to have a lot of conversations on Friday. I would rather do it one-on-one rather than in a group because your child’s IEP is an individual exercise between you and us. So I too will talk with you on Friday individually as well.

Ms. Monroe: Okay. Thank you.

Dr. Evans: For any of the parents who have not been contacted already by our staff, I will talk with you. If you can make sure we have your number we will contact you and I will meet with you on Friday before the end of the day. That means in some cases early in the morning and in other cases in the afternoon depending on your schedules.

Ms. Shiqira Dickerson: Good evening Mr. President, Mr. Superintendent, and all who serve on the Paterson Board of Education. My name is Shiqira Dickerson. I am a teacher at Concerned Parents for Headstart and my son also attends there. I am here on his behalf. He also has an IEP. He has just been diagnosed with pervasive disabilities disorder. Since September he has not received any of his speech therapy or his occupational therapy and I'm very concerned about this. We have been speaking to people in the Board of Education and we haven't gotten the proper answers. I would like to know when all of his services will be rendered and the back services that he has not received since September. We are now going into Thanksgiving and into December and these children are not being serviced. I just think it's an injustice because this is against the law for them not to have these services. I, too, am a product of the Paterson Public School District and so is my daughter. Now my son coming into this once he gets into kindergarten, what type of services will there be to help him along the way? I do understand we’re going to speak with some people on Friday. That may not be my best availability because of my work schedule, but I would like to speak with you as well.

Dr. Evans: You’ll be speaking directly with me and I'm flexible. I can accommodate your schedule whatever that might be.

Ms. Dickerson: Thank you, sir.

Ms. Irene Sterling: Good evening, my name is Irene Sterling and I'm President of the Paterson Education Fund. I have a couple of things I want to talk with you about tonight. First of all, I want to congratulate both the program of Headstart and the parents from Headstart who are here who are speaking up on behalf of their kids and making sure that they get the services that they need. They are doing exactly what they should be doing in order to get the kids the services they need and that's important. So if you are a parent feeling like your child is not getting what they need, if they’ve got an IEP and it's not being correctly addressed, if you’ve got a long-term substitute in your child’s classroom, you need to raise your voice and make sure that Dr. Evans and the Board knows about it so that they are able to take your voice to the people who can make a difference. We have been under a state mandated freeze from the beginning of school. That has meant that the personnel that we ought to have in our schools is not there and every single one of you up there knows it, Dr. Evans knows it, and those of us who have been attending the Board meetings knows it. We’ve been listening to this for six months. We need to be able to gather as a community to put pressure on the state to do the right thing. It is their responsibility to help us get every child in this district the education that they deserve and have their IEPs and the other services that they’re entitled to delivered. But let's not stand down. Let's not be afraid to speak up. I'm very

Page 5 11/10/10 proud of the folks from Headstart because they’re doing exactly what we need them to do in order for us to do the things that we need to do. None of us gets this done by ourselves. This is a work of people working together, raising their voices together, and paying attention to what is important. For that reason, I want to tell you how proud I am also tonight that I was able to sign the agreement for the Memorandum of Understanding for School 5 to become a community school in partnership with New Jersey Community Development Corporation. This has been a long time coming. I am delighted that I was able to put my signature on that document. I'm glad that you’re going to pass it tonight and that we are going to see the Community Schools initiative move forward as we are in a position right now to be choosing the lead agencies for the next two schools and in fact be choosing the third cohort schools. Thank you for your attention and please, Board members, feel the concern that we all have that you have this community’s support to ask for and to demand and to continue to pressure for the things that we need whether it's from the Commissioner’s office, the SDA, or the Governor’s office. All of these people have a responsibility to our kids and we will carry out our part. We need to be sure that they carry out their part. Thank you.

Ms. Joann Milton: Hi, my name is Joanne Milton.

Ms. Veronica Ramos: My name is Veronica Ramos and I'm the Home School Council President of JFK.

Ms. Leslie McCallum: My name is Leslie McCallum and I'm the Home School Council Secretary at JFK.

Ms. Milton: I'm the Home School Council from Frank Napier Academy. I have a child that attends John F. Kennedy High School and we just came out of a joint workshop held by John F. Kennedy High School and PANTHER Academy. It was called Right Question Project. It was great. It was very knowledgeable. I would like to encourage all parents to please get involved.

Ms. Ramos: I'd like to say thanks to all the parents that came out and supported and got some encouragement for the workshop. We had some great learning tools and whoever wasn’t there we really missed you. We made a lot of phone calls and a lot of people came out and we’re hoping more come out next time. We need to be behind our children in order for them to go forward. Let's do this for them.

Ms. McCallum: Again, the workshop was excellent. It gave us additional tools that we can use, especially now that report cards are coming out and back-to-school night is there again. We were hoping that we would have more parents out and we’re really trying our best with this committee that we have to reach out to the parents of the students here at JFK. We made a lot of phone calls, but we’re really happy to see faces that we had not seen at our meetings before. So we just want to thank the Board for doing all that they’re doing and we encourage you to keep the fight. We’re here to support you and whatever we can do in our community to encourage the other parents we will also be doing. Thank you.

It was moved by Comm. Taylor, seconded by Comm. Mendez that the Public Comments portion of the meeting be closed. On roll call all members voted in the affirmative. The motion carried.

Page 6 11/10/10 BOARD COMMENTS

Comm. Hodges: To the parents who have come down here concerned about your children’s special education needs, the law says that your children are supposed to have it, but the Governor has cut our budget and now frozen our budget. So your children’s needs and concerns are being sacrificed on the altar of ideology, not finance. The Supreme Court has said that we’re supposed to have funding that addresses the needs of these children. The last Governor took that funding away or froze that funding. This one is cutting that funding. The Supreme Court has said that we have severe building needs, new schools, and we put together a proposal where we should have 14 new schools. Well, this Governor has blocked that program under a proposed study and is now putting together a plan to determine whether you need those schools at all. Hazel/Marshall, which is under construction, was stopped. They pulled the trailers off the lot after designing and redesigning and now they’re going to decide whether or not you're going to get the schools. Mind you, you have severe overcrowding in your elementary classes. You have 1,000 new students coming into this district because of the economy. They are cutting their budgets so that now the tests scores, which were climbing, but secondary to their intervention, are beginning to drop. They are counting on you sitting here and being silent and accepting this nonsense. This is about ideology. This is not about finance. This is about ideology. This is about someone deciding that you and your children don't count, and I'm tired of sitting here and letting it happen. The question is whether you are. Ladies and gentlemen, this is within your hands. There are 59 projects throughout this state where the SDA is deciding, even though the money was put together, that they’re going to pull it and perhaps cancel it. Then they’re going to go to the Supreme Court and change the Supreme Court so that you can't go back there to get the same remedies. I'm sorry, Mr. President. I’m taking a personal privilege. If you sit in those chairs and you do nothing and continue to do nothing, they're going to keep their foot on your necks. I'm sorry. Let me calm down a little bit. Your children are going to continue to suffer because their children don't have 117-year-old schools. They don't have 108-year-old schools. You do. And if you want something done you can't come to this podium because he works for the state and unfortunately they control what he can and cannot do. You need to put pressure where pressure needs to go. That means people in your legislature, to your Governor, and to the Department of Education. You need to say you want what's coming to you now and you’re not going to stop until you get it. One rally is not going to do it. You must put constant pressure, phone calls, or whatever it takes until you get what your children need. Trust me, if you don't do it today you won't have any schools or any funding to do it tomorrow. Thank you, Mr. President.

Comm. Irving: Well. What I first want to do is just acknowledge the women of Delta Sigma Theta and in response to what you said, Ms. Gaines, recognize as a member of this community the ongoing continuing efforts that Delta has engaged itself in since I was a young man. I have had the pleasure and privilege of having actually some of the women who are in your chapter as my teacher, my principal, and as my friends and mentors, and I most certainly wish you continued success in your mission at making our community even better than what it is. With that said I want to jump to what Dr. Hodges was speaking of and take a different avenue, so to speak. I certainly encourage the parents who’ve come tonight and I encourage anyone in this community who is not getting the information, who is not getting the services for their children that they need, to reach out to this Board, the Superintendent’s office, to the State of New Jersey, and to the Governor’s office to make it happen. But this is part of a greater issue and a greater problem and that is this state-controlled district of the City of Paterson. I stress that we’re a state-controlled district. It is almost impossible to consider and to think that this Governor or anyone in his administration can quite possibly know what's better for

Page 7 11/10/10 this city and the children of this city and for them to not be here every day, for them to not live here every day, and for them to not shop here every day to know that. I, as a member of this Board, have been very vocal about my discontent with the 20-year state takeover for one particular reason – things haven't gotten any better. As a matter of fact, things have gotten even worse. So there has to be a growing conversation, and it is happening on this Board, about realistically where we’re moving to. I am not content with sitting here having no voting rights and no voting privileges while an entity that I have no control over continues to push our children further and further down the totem pole. This has nothing to do with us as a community. It has everything to do with the state and their inability to govern and to provide our children with the education they need and to provide the Board with the power to govern that we need in order to make things better. The state has given us superintendent upon superintendent and at the first whim that they don't like that person they’ll move him out. While, Dr. Evans, I think most members of this Board continue to support you and what you do, the truth of the matter is you work for the state. If I was back in the day I’d say you work for the man. You are the man. Until we have a man who reports to us and reports to this Board, it puts this Board in a very precarious situation. The question for our community is I am not willing to sit here for another meeting or two and do this anymore. I am making this very clear and very public. Unless things change on this Board and unless things change in this district, I will be one voice of discontent that will not just be a voice, but will be a person of action. Thank you, Mr. President.

Comm. Kerr: For some time now I've been the advocate for a partnership in this district. I realize that we cannot do much without full partnership of our community in Paterson. Tonight I'm very pleased of the Deltas coming here tonight and sharing with us what they’re doing in terms of partnering with us to make sure that our children get the best support and guidance possible in this district. I also want to congratulate the PEF for signing onto School 5 to come into the Community Schools initiative. I believe that we can create new models of learning in our district and I'm sure it will help in a great way to speed up the learning process of our children here. I, too, want to express my deep concern about the state of our district in terms of QSAC. As you well know, we are under state control for almost 20 years. They have devised a system. They call it QSAC. It was designed to create the pathway for us to get out of state control. Since I've been on the Board, we have worked very hard to adhere to the rules and comply with the regulations of QSAC. But the state keeps on moving the goal post. Every time we believe we have crossed the bar, they present a new argument and new reasons why we should remain where we are. I believe after 20 years we should be on our own. We are not running anything. There are certain things that we believe could be done better. But we do not have the control or the power to make the necessary changes that we believe are necessary. So I am one of the Commissioners, Comm. Irving, who will stand with any action that is determined by way of fighting against the injustices of the state. Dr. Evans has done a great job. We respect Dr. Evans. But as you said, Dr. Evans represents the state. He has demonstrated quality leadership and we love, like, and respect what he's doing. But we just need to be able to have the right to say something more. So, Mr. President, I thank you for the time and your kind indulgence.

Comm. Irving: Point of information. I just wanted to go on record by saying that the ladies of Delta Sigma Theta are indeed my sorority sisters as well. I just wanted to mention that. I'm so proud to have my sisters here. I forgot to say that as well. I just want to put that on record, Mr. Alpha President.

Comm. Mendez: First, I would like to take a moment to acknowledge the outstanding job that Kemper McDowell, his team, and also Comm. Irving have done at International High School at the last parent workshop. It was great to see so many parents receiving

Page 8 11/10/10 information to advocate for their children. When you have the right information as a parent you can be the best advocate for our children and we can't stop. I was there early in the morning providing transportation for those children and I was very happy. They can count on me. Any time they need me, I will definitely be there for them. I would also like to express my concern about the situation that we have with the state. It's very clear that we've been under state control for over 20 years and we've been failing and failing. Those children don't have a second chance. We almost lost two generations and we continue under state control. So what are we going to do? As a community, are we going to continue? This is the time to do something about it. The way the state is acting we’re waiting for over three weeks for a NJQSAC report, if I'm not mistaken. They continue postponing and it's very clear that they don't want us to regain local control. But as a parent this is the time to do something. As a Board we have to put ourselves together and make a move because if we don't do it now it's going to be very late for our children. The state has the money that we need to bring those teachers back, teachers that our children need, and they keep that money on hold. Like my colleague said, we have nothing against Dr. Evans. Dr. Evans has been a great Superintendent with a lot of ideas and he's a man of action. But he represents the state and this is the time that this Board takes action against the state. Thank you, Mr. President.

Comm. Guzman: I would like to first take this time to thank the Deltas for being here with us this evening. We welcome you and hope to see you with us at future meetings also. I also want to thank Ms. Irene Sterling for bringing us that information of the signing for our first Community School, School 5, which is the first Community School in the City of Paterson. I'm really looking forward to seeing the outcome that we’re going to have with that school. I want to commend Mr. Kemper McDowell for the wonderful job that he does with the Parent Resource Center and for the great turnout and outcome that they had this past weekend with the Parent Awareness Day. I was unable to attend due to personal reasons, but I did receive a very good feedback of that event. To our parents that are here today from Headstart, as a mother and having a daughter that attends Paterson Public Schools, I understand the need that you have for your children to receive the education and I commend you for taking the step of coming here to us to our meeting and expressing your concerns. More people like you is what we need in the city, people that actually come and are willing to do what needs to be done so that the state can hear us. Yes, we are here as a Board and we are here representing you, but everything right now is in the state’s hands. As my fellow colleagues have said, they control us. We are a state-operated district but they’re not here on a day-to-day basis to know that our children are suffering. We are the taxpayers. We are the ones that live here. Yet, they are the ones controlling everything from the state. So I encourage you to stay involved and to keep in connection with the Superintendent. Like he said, some of you guys are going to be meeting on Friday and those that cannot meet with him he's going to work it out so that you can have the possibility to meet with him. But also reach out to other parents and let them know that they are needed. I myself as a Commissioner am here for anything or any rallies that we need to go to. Anything that has to be done will get done, but it has to be done in Trenton. They need to hear us. They need to know that we here in Paterson care about our children and are willing to do the necessary steps that need to be done so that our children receive the education that they deserve. Thank you.

Comm. Rodriguez: I'm taking this a little bit with mixed emotions because this morning I was reading that article in the Herald News of some children that are underserved and today we see that some of the parents have showed up to talk about their particular issues with their children. More than a comment it's a request that I have for you, Dr. Evans. Even though it's a good step to meet them individually, we need to come out

Page 9 11/10/10 with a comprehensive plan to return those services immediately. The reason for that is we have to abide by the law. That's one. Second, we cannot wait on Trenton. They won't do it. We have to take this ourselves and find the money within the district to make it happen because every day that they lose without the services it represents a lot for them. So it is a request that I have for you and I know you are taking the necessary steps to return the services. But that needs to be done ASAP. We cannot wait on Trenton. Thank you. The second thing is tomorrow is Veteran’s Day and I want to take the opportunity to salute the men and women in uniform, especially those veterans that many of them have served this country with honor, many putting their lives at risk, many losing their lives for the freedom and the justice that we try to share across the world. My salute to you and thank you, Mr. President.

Comm. Taylor: I, too, am very happy to see the parents here. We knew that there were not services for the children at the early school. I thank the Deltas for being here. I know that I've been honored by you at times and I've worked with you for some projects. But I thank you for being here and letting the public know what you are doing throughout the community, the state, and national. It just doesn't stop here. You don't just stop here. I want to go into something about our code of ethics for the Board of Education. It says that I will uphold and enforce all laws, state Board rules and regulations, and court orders pertaining to schools. Desired changes should be brought about only through legal and ethical procedures. I take issue with the “through legal and ethical procedures” at the state level. Something is going on wrong at that level. I will make decisions in terms of the educational welfare of children and will seek to develop and maintain public schools which meet the individual needs of all children regardless of their ability, race, creed, sex, or social standing. There are 10 of them that we took as Commissioners and I take them very seriously. But I must remind all of us that we are the state and if we’re not pleased with something we have to stand up and speak against it or for it. We’ve got to come forward. That's why I think the parents are correct in coming to this forum. No one listens and no one hears you and only one at a time and they pick at you one at a time and knock you down. But if you stand as a united force it will work. There was a lady in our community that just passed away, Josephine Chambers-Betts. Josephine used to come to Board meetings and shout and point that one finger like that all the time, and another lady, Sophie Fitzgerald, for special education children. They used to come when we were at 33 Church Street and there wasn’t enough room. Mr. Riley knew there wasn’t enough room and there were people outside the building all around the streets. Joe, you remember that and a lot of people here remember that. Lynn, you remember that. We used to stand there and all the people used to come. When there was something wrong in this town in education we spoke about it. Ms. Chambers used to stand up there and talk about it on behalf of every child in this district. Every parent that can hear me… I know you don't all hear me and the teachers don't hear me at all because they don't live here. We have it on cable. This meeting is on cable. They don't know how upset we are with the State Department of Education and with what the Governor has done to us and with what other people continue to do to us politically. We are human beings in Paterson and we should not be treated the way we’re being treated. When they tell me that money is being held back because we have to get our books in order they’re just holding the money so it can gain some interest for them and then when they try to send it to us they don't have enough to send to us. So this community truly needs to do like Josephine Chambers. She got three or four buses together, went down to Trenton and said, “I'm not leaving Trenton until I get my money back in Paterson.” She stayed there and the people stayed there and they worked out a deal to have money back in Paterson for education of our children. That's what parents and people in this town have to do. Thank you.

Page 10 11/10/10 Comm. Best: I'm going to ditto the sentiments of my fellow Board members with both of the statements, first to the distinguished and devastating divas of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. Thank you for all of the hard work you do. Ms. Gaines got up here and mentioned that she was the President of the sorority, but she is also the principal of one of the schools at Eastside High School. As I look through the membership of Delta Sigma Theta, I notice that a majority of your members are in education here in the City of Paterson. You're sitting next to a former assistant superintendent in the city and I know Ms. Quince is a Principal at the Academy of Performing Arts at School 6. So thank you for all of the work you do within the school district as employees, but then on top of that to come back and put in the extra hours that you’re not getting paid for making sure that all of the kids have a high quality education. We really appreciate it and thank everything that you do. Second, as we all know the quality of education in the City of Paterson has been significantly impacted as a result of the funding freeze and the hiring freeze that the state has mandated on the district. As the paper said, there are about 100 teachers that the district is short in very key and crucial areas, not limited to the staff needed for IEPs at the early childhood education, but also in core subject areas that students need in order to graduate. When we think about the upcoming tests or the test that just passed as it relates to the NJASK and the HSPA, to think that students are going this long without having an algebra teacher when they have to take a state mandated test... So you experience that whole time of summer loss and we all know what that is. Over the course of the summer kids forget what they learned in the previous year. They come back to school and have to have a substitute until November, December, and January and we expect them to take a test in order for them to graduate school. When the test scores come back then the state points a finger at this body and says that we are responsible for that. I don't know how that's possible and I'm going to get into accountability in just a second, but thanks to parents involvement. I appreciate seeing you here today, but more importantly pressure on the state from the community is what forced the state to allow the district to hire 27 teachers and four IAs to make sure that we do exactly what we need to do to follow the code of the law. Again, you forced the state’s hand to follow the law. So thank you for helping us out in that situation. Again, I said the state allowed us to hire. You have to understand that the state allowed us to hire and that's where the accountable comes in place. There’s a cycle of accountability that has been broken in the City of Paterson for over 20 years. The parents have children in the schools and you elect a local body to represent your interests. In a normal school district 20 years ago we would hire the superintendent and hold the superintendent accountable for evaluating the principals and the teachers to make sure that your children are getting the quality education that you pay your taxes for and that you deserve. That cycle was broken 20 years ago when the state came in and appointed a superintendent to be in control of the direction of the educational future of the city. I'm thankful that we have a Superintendent of the quality and caliber of Dr. Evans, who’s more than competent to do the job. However, in many cases his hands are tied from doing things that we all know need to happen in order to ensure the high quality education that our students are entitled to by the state of the law and that is their god-given right. That being said, we’re working through this process as Comm. Kerr discussed called QSAC. It's been a long and drawn-out process and it hasn’t been perfect. In a lot of cases the state has missed several deadlines that they were responsible for following in the law. But I'm confident that we have done everything in our power as a locally elected School Board in governing ourselves to demonstrate to the state that we can run this district better than they ever can. We represent you. There are 170,000 people in this city. It's the third largest city in the State of New Jersey. Do you mean to tell me that we can't get nine people out of 170,000 that can make the decisions to control this district? So there are only three districts in the whole State of New Jersey, over 600 school districts, and 170,000 people. We can't get nine over the course of 20 years? A lot of us were in school when

Page 11 11/10/10 the state came to take over. But again, I want to assure the public that this body is doing everything that we possibly can do to make sure that we return the district to local control by following the rules and regulations put forth in the QSAC legislation even if the State of New Jersey doesn't follow those rules. When we look at accountability and where the fingers get pointed, understand that this body is only responsible for governance. We can only control how we govern ourselves as a body. So when the state comes in and they say that your budgets are wrong or you're messing up with the funding, we don't have any control over that. We don't control the hiring. We don't control the spending. The state appointed a Superintendent as well as a Fiscal Monitor to control the funding in the district over the course of the last 20 years. So everything that's happened even dating back to the $50 million misappropriation is a reflection of the State of New Jersey. So when the test scores come back and when the QSAC results come back, understand that if it's reflected negatively in any area besides governance, we’re going to take credit for governance. But in any other of the four areas that are negatively impacted, you need to understand that that's a reflection on the State of New Jersey and not a reflection on the locally elected school body or a reflection of the parents and the students within this district. We have to make sure that they're held accountable just the same way that you hold us accountable every three years when you reelect us. That being said, I want to thank all of the Board members for their comments. I want to thank the public for coming out and we encourage you to stay for the rest of our meeting if you would like to.

Resolution No. A-7

Service Learning Pilot Program: Project Supporting, Enlisting, Rebuilding, Views Into Community Engagement

Introduction: The Department of Academic Services strives to meet and exceed the standard instructional practices with meaningful experiences centered on community concerns and team building; facilitate experiences that empower students to recognize their own self-worth and promote self exploration and group cohesiveness. In an effort to further promote community collaborative initiatives amongst Paterson’s diverse ethnic population, a District-wide Service Learning Initiative is proposed. It is the vision of the Office of Academic Services in collaboration with the Social Studies Department, City

Page 16 11/10/10 Green Incorporated, and the United Way of Passaic to see every school engaged in at least one service learning project each school year; and

WHEREAS, service-learning is a teaching method that is curriculum based and combines service to the community. The most valuable component to service-learning is the connection between the community concerns and classroom studies. Through service learning students learn and grow as active participants in a thoughtfully organized service. This initiative will enhance the academic curriculum and provide a structured time for students to reflect on the service experience; and

WHEREAS, the data reflects the benefits on Service Learning:

California Service-Learning Programs (Ammon, Furco, Chi & Middaugh, 2001) Researchers found that academic impacts were related to clarity of academic goals and activities, scope, and support through focused reflection. Civic Engagement and High School Academic Progress: An analysis Using NELS Data (Davila & Mora, 2007) A review of data from the National Educational Longitudinal Study of 1988 (NELS) suggested that participation in civic engagement activities including voluntary community service, service-learning, and student government during high school years enhanced academic achievement. Philadelphia Need in Deed Initiative Study (Billig, 2003) Sixth-grade students who participated in the service-learning approach had statistically significantly higher scores on the Terra Nova, a standardized test, in the areas of science and language arts; however, the same effects were not found for other grade levels. Data analyses showed that the differences may be attributable to the content and quality of the service-learning experience. Role of Service-Learning in Enhancing Student Achievement (Furco, 2007) A review of research indicates that high quality service-learning, because of its utilization of effective, experiential learning strategies, can enhance academic outcomes in such content areas as reading, writing, mathematics, and science. A variety of studies have shown evidence of a range of achievement-related benefits from service-learning, including improved attendance, higher grade point averages, enhanced preparation for the workforce, enhanced awareness and understanding of social issues, greater motivation for learning, and heightened engagement in pro-social behaviors; and

WHEREAS, the New Jersey Core Curriculum Content Standards for Science – Earth Systems, Life, and Physical and Science Practices, Mathematics as well as Social Studies – Civics, United States History, World History, Economics, and Geography serves as the foundation for all service learning projects; and

WHEREAS, the Service Learning Program will be introduced during the 2010-2011 school year as a pilot program at International High School, Eastside High School, John F. Kennedy High School, Public School No. 2, Public School No. 3, Public School No. 5, Public School No. 7, Public School No. 9, and Public School No. 12 and phased in the remaining schools for the 2011-2012 school year; and

WHEREAS, service learning provides an opportunity for students to relate services directly to their academic subject matter with real life experience as it is a process of teaching and learning. Learning not only becomes important and increasingly engaging, it fosters a positive school environment as well as increase academic performance and parent/community engagement in schools; and

Page 17 11/10/10 WHEREAS, service learning consists of four components: First, preparation which will develop a sense of ownership of the project. Student involvement is essential to success as it provides the analysis of what the community needs. Second, it is the actual performance of service(s). These services can be direct (turnkey learning, visiting elderly, adopt-a-block, developing a school/community garden), indirect (fundraisers, toy drives, clean ups), or advocacy (petitioning, lobbying, supporting). The third component is reflection regarding what learning took place as a result of the service. The reaction to the program will be analyzed. The final stage is recognition of the contributions made by the student; and

WHEREAS, student benefits include self worth, independence, responsibility, tolerance and the acceptance of challenges. Character education occurs and children learn basic human values such as honesty, kindness, generosity, courage, freedom, equality and respect. School benefits include improved student-teacher relations, positive public relations, increased school pride, and an improved academic atmosphere. The community benefits as students live in harmony as they are increasingly culturally conscious; and

WHEREAS, Service Learning opportunities will be provided through collaboration with the Division of Curriculum and Instruction, City Green Incorporated, Passaic County’s United Way, and a host of community organizations and business; now

THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the Paterson Public School District approve the Service Learning Initiative to promote community service initiatives that empower students and families, promote self-exploration and group cohesiveness in a nurturing environment. The Service Learning Initiative will be introduced during the 2010-2011 school year as a pilot program in International High School, Eastside High School, John F. Kennedy High School, Public School No. 2, Public School No. 3, Public School No. 5, Public School No. 7, Public School No. 9, and Public School No. 12 and phased in the remaining schools for the 2011-2012 school year.

Mark Kramer NJASBO Board Secretary’s December 14, 2010 $15.50 Assistant Report and Duties of the (transportation) Superintendent for Board Secretary Business Services Rockaway, NJ

It was moved by Comm. Rodriguez, seconded by Comm. Mendez that Resolution Nos. A-1 through A-54 be adopted.

Comm. Hodges: As you know, Mr. President, I take the curriculum portion of this meeting very carefully, but there's $12 million that we can’t devote appropriately. Not money that we don't have, but money that we can't spend on the appropriate programming, on appropriate teachers, and to do the things that we need to do even in the face of declining test scores. That I find to be reprehensible, when you're going to put funding and funds, and quite frankly ideology, above the educational needs of children. We have $12 million from the federal government that we can't apply directly to the needs of children. Parents, I'm sorry that you're leaving and you're missing this important point. $12 million of your taxpayer’s money which we have we can't devote to education. Consequently, when we look at what's going to happen educationally and we look at these test scores where only 30% of our kids are reading on grade level and third grade and fourth grade and fifth grade and on and on, that to me is a disgrace. Rather than put the funds where they should be placed, we are forced to parcel them out on some of these after-school programs, which quite frankly in my opinion are merely taking advantage of our desperate educational situation as opposed to providing any real value. I can't in good conscience sit here and continue to say nothing about this nonsense. Mr. President, I can't vote for this tonight. I may vote for two, but for the rest of them I'm going to vote no.

Comm. Best: Thank you, Dr. Hodges. Any other questions?

On roll call all members voted as follows:

Comm. Guzman: Yes, but I abstain from anything that has to do with the City of Paterson.

Comm. Hodges: I'm going to vote yes for A-9 and A-11, no for everything else.

Comm. Irving: No.

Comm. Kerr: Absent.

Comm. Mendez: Yes.

Comm. Rodriguez: Yes.

Comm. Taylor: I'm going to vote yes because some of these we need to have them even though I'd like to vote no. You need them for us to keep on going and I would continue to help Dr. Evans continue with things going for the children. But I am not pleased with a lot of what's going on here because you need more staff. You need more people that can make all of this happen correctly for children. I am not pleased with that at all. But whatever we can get done let's do it. That’s all I'm saying. Yes.

Comm. Best: Yes, and I abstain from any issues dealing with NJCDC.

Page 48 11/10/10

The motion carried.

LEGAL COMMITTEE

Comm. Irving: Mr. President, the legal committee has not convened. But we are under a new process in which the Superintendent is going to be furnishing the legal committee with updates regarding district legal procedures. Those briefs will then drive the actual meetings of the legal committee.

Comm. Taylor: I would like to ask a question. There was mention of a MOU. Did that committee review it?

Comm. Irving: Memorandum of Understanding?

Comm. Taylor: Yes.

Comm. Irving: With School 5?

Comm. Taylor: Yes.

Comm. Irving: No. It was not forwarded to the committee for our review.

Comm. Taylor: We got into trouble a few years ago without reviewing MOUs, especially with the police department. So you need to know what the real agreement is all about. Legal needs to be aware of that. I know that, Dr. Evans, you have talked with the legal department on that agreement.

Dr. Evans: Yes.

Comm. Taylor: I think it should be shared with our legal committee.

Dr. Evans: Okay.

Comm. Taylor: Thank you.

FISCAL COMMITTEE

Comm. Kerr: The fiscal committee met on Thursday, November 4. We had Commissioners Guzman, Taylor, and myself. Absent was Comm. Mendez. From staff we had Ms. Frances Finkelstein, the B.A. We also had some guests, Mr. Jeff Bliss and Mr. Robert Haag from the district’s external auditing firm Lerch, Vinci & Higgins. Our meeting started with an audit overview by Mr. Jeff Bliss in which he said the district will receive two audit reports. First, a Comprehensive Annual Financial Report for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2010; and second, the Auditor’s Management Report on Administrative Findings, Financial Compliance, and Performance as of June 30, 2010. The Comprehensive Annual Financial Report contains three sets of financial statements. One on the budgetary basis, which is most important; the statistical section that is unaudited but which provides information to be given to external bodies for financial ratings and other purposes; and a single audit section that addresses compliance on general and specific rules and regulations as well as a report on internal controls. This year’s CAFR, Comprehensive Annual Financial Report, contains three sets of financials and is over 300 pages in length. That's a very large volume. Among the more important exhibits is Section C-1 found on page 54, which provides an overall

Page 49 11/10/10 budgetary comparison schedule of the general fund for the 2009-2010 fiscal year that includes the full balance position, which is listed on page 62 of the report. The fund balance includes $2.4 million in reserve for encumbrances for orders committed by a contract, purchase order, salary agreement, travel claims, etc. that will be paid within a defined period of time in the succeeding fiscal year. Also included is $1,000 capital reserve, a fairly long-standing deposit made years earlier to conform to the state recommendation enabling establishment of this account with minimum of administrative effort, $7 million in a newly-established maintenance reserve to cover required maintenance effort beyond the budgeted amount, $1 million in another newly-created account emergency reserve, the maximum allowed to cover unexpected increases in a limited number of areas such as health insurance and tuition costs. Reserve for excess surplus of $10 million is designated for use in the 2010-2011 budget. Unrestricted fund balance of $11.1 million is the district’s allowable surplus. Reserved for excess surplus of $2.3 million is the district’s true excess as of June 30, 2010. Mr. Bliss also made a point that the fiscal year ending June 30, 2010 was another year of audit improvements, both in the reduced number of recommendations and the reduced number of repeat recommendations. Last year there were 12 recommendations and 4 repeats. This year there are 10 recommendations and 3 repeats. Another important indicator of progress is the fact that although there are still some audit findings, there is significant improvement in the management of the accounting process because there were no material weaknesses found in the audit. Mr. Robert Haag then discussed the audit recommendations from the auditor’s management report starting from page two. The recommendations are summarized on page 18 and 19 of the report that we all will receive at a later date. Mr. Haag went through each item with us explaining the nature of the problems and what corrective action should be taken to correct each deficiency. While some areas still need improvement, the number and/or severity had improved over prior years. So that's a good thing. We are improving in our processes and we are doing much better. The audit also added suggestions to management that are not findings but that would improve the district’s operations, including the implementation of an automated point of sale report system for the food services now affordable since the operation has been making some money. So they can use that fund and invest into this new system. Our meeting was adjourned at about 9:15 p.m.

Comm. Kerr reported that the Fiscal Committee met, reviewed and recommends approval for Resolution Nos. C-1 through C-24:

FACILITIES COMMITTEE

Comm. Hodges: I met with the Superintendent at the request of one of the members of the facilities committee around the issue of green buildings and solar cells. It is the district’s intent to take a look at what our current energy usage is and then to consider bringing in some vendors to look at what the possibilities are out there in the area of solar cells and energy savings that we can realize. So we plan to bring these vendors in to speak to the facilities committee starting in December. Was that the idea?

Dr. Evans: Yes.

Comm. Hodges: There's a potential of great savings there, particularly if we can join with the city and/or the county to increase or enhance our bargaining position. We have not had a formal meeting. We need to schedule that either this week or next week. In

Page 66 11/10/10 addition to that, I think Monday I sat in a classroom at School 6. I walked into the classroom and there were several students with coats on shivering because of one of the windows that the state was supposed to repair a year ago but the project has been held up. Because the SDA is still reviewing the project that window was unable to be closed. So students were sitting in the classroom shivering because as you know Monday was a particularly chilly and windy day and the only thing that they could use to block the wind was the shade. So the wind was rustling the shade and the kids were sitting in the classroom shivering. I had a conversation today with Mr. Ballard, who is the Chief of Staff of the SDA, trying to ascertain what the situation was particularly regarding this project and that conversation led into this whole situation with our other construction with our schools. It was made very clear to me that Hazel/Marshall, even though the money was found, the money was designated, and the construction was under way, that project has been shut down, the trailers have been removed from the site, and the project itself has been placed back as part of a capital plan where they're determining whether or not we even need new buildings. So the children at School 14 in a 100+ year old building have to continue to wait. The children in School 17 in a 100+ year old building have to continue to eat their lunches down in the basement where they also have gym. The children in School 8 and School 3, 100+ year old buildings, have to continue to wait. The children in School 16 have to continue to wait. Those are not the state’s children. They're our children and if we don't care don't think that the state does, because they don't. They’re projects that have been going on and on, even though they acknowledge the condition that our children are languishing in, even though they acknowledge that we have the worst facilities in the State of New Jersey, they acknowledge that, these conditions continue. Now they plan to remove projects which already have money designated for them and possibly take them off the list altogether. If it's a 100-year-old building there's possibly asbestos. If it's a 100-year- old building the wiring isn't up to the current codes. If it's a 100-year-old building you don't have room for computers. If it's a 100-year-old building you don't have air conditioning, fans, or the power to power the fans when it gets hot in those buildings. If it's a 100-year-old building the pipes aren't what they should be, neither is the heat. We have at least I think seven to eleven of them in this district and many more that are pretty close. You can't run internet just like that. They can't be brought to a competitive level just like that. Those projects have been shut down since July. I thought it was March, but he told me it was July.

Dr. Evans: They actually pulled out in March and then officially shut it down in July.

Comm. Hodges: So we’re sitting here waiting. Meanwhile the kids in School 6 sit in their classroom and shiver while they’re trying to learn math. When you're sitting there watching little kids do their best with their coats on it's a disgrace. Then to have that conversation where you tell me we are going to pull your projects. I have not been this angry in a long time. When you shortchange kids with special needs, when you shortchange kids who are poor, not even to maintain, but they can't catch up, and you're taking from them so that millionaires don't pay a tax, this is a disgrace. This is just November. It's not December yet or February with the snow on the ground. If they're sitting in a classroom shivering now in November, what do you think is going to happen in February? And they don't care. So I'm sorry, Mr. President. I'm completely out of sorts tonight. This nonsense has to stop. We can't continue to be in this position where we can't move forward, where our kids are treated like so much chattel, where people play ideological games with them and their livelihood and their welfare and their well- being. That's what's happening here. I'm telling you, Paterson, if you sit back and you stay silent, if you stay in your homes, if you don't make phone calls, if you don't write letters, then your children’s future, their fate will be sealed, because that's what they're planning for you. I will entertain any questions about my facilities report.

Page 67 11/10/10

Comm. Kerr: My concern is in a situation like this, how is it treated? Does the teacher approach the principal of the building explaining to the principal that we have an issue here? We have a broken window and the kids are cold inside the classroom. How is this handled at that level?

Comm. Hodges: The work orders are all being placed in, but the window is stuck because it was the wrong window that was placed in by the SDA. So it's the wrong window. So that particular issue even if they get the window down the air leaks around the window because it was improperly placed there.

Comm. Kerr: So it was just a leakage that you're talking about?

Comm. Hodges: No. The window itself is improper. It doesn't belong there. So therefore, when they raised it up earlier during the summer they could not close it. So there was a project to replace all of those windows but it's being reviewed. It's been reviewed for almost a year now. It's gone back and forth. So, all those windows that were supposed to be done a long time ago haven’t been done. That classroom is only one classroom of many that have to be done. They put residential windows in a school building.

Comm. Kerr: Dr. Evans, were you aware of these kinds of situations?

Dr. Evans: Yes. I'm aware of actually several situations that are SDA projects that are problematic in some way or another for which we have requested their assistance in getting them repaired. But because of the status that we’re in with activity being stopped for the most part for many of the projects, except for those for which grants from SDA were given that we are moving on. We are moving on those for which they did that.

Comm. Kerr: The reason for the question is these are egregious problems and our kids can get ill and sick. I believe somebody should be held responsible. Do we have a list of all these things that we have submitted to the SDA?

Dr. Evans: Yes, we do.

Comm. Kerr: Because it could be grounds for a lawsuit. So it's important that we keep careful records of these things when we submit it to the SDA if problems are not corrected and our children happen to suffer from their negligence.

Dr. Evans: In that particular case while we were aware that there were window problems, I wasn’t aware of the temperature and the impact on the temperature in recent days. That is extremely problematic. As a result, we will follow up with the principal and see if we can work out some temporary arrangements for that class so that they won't be subjected to that.

Comm. Hodges: They’ve already moved to do that. Certainly, I tried to help facilitate that as soon as possible.

Comm. Mendez: I would like to make a comment about that. We have so many old buildings in the city that have a lot of electricity problems. A lot of those plugs are not working properly. What they’re doing is they’re using extensions and that's really dangerous. That's something that we have to address immediately. I've been in some of the buildings where just to continue working they use some extensions to plug other

Page 68 11/10/10 things in, in some of the rooms with the students and that's something that we need to put some type of comprehensive plan to address those issues immediately. I remember last summer I went to summer school and in order for them to plug some air conditioners they used those extensions in the classroom with the children. That's something that can’t happen and I don't know what we can do to start making a list and visiting those buildings that have those electrical problems. We have so many issues. When it comes to facilities there are a lot of issues. There are some issues where we can put it on side and let them wait, but this type of issue, electricity, it can't. We have to find a solution for that immediately.

Comm. Hodges: Mr. Mendez, you have to develop a comprehensive approach because if you address the extension cord problem then you lose the computers and you lose the fans and you lose the air conditioning. Now you’ve created a far more miserable environment. On the other hand, if you leave the extension cords there they're trip hazards and they're also fire hazards and, quite frankly, they happen to be a fire code violation. But if you remove all that stuff what happens is the kids lose computers. There are certain schools that I'm well aware of where the only way they can get their computers operational is to run extension cords. So they lose educational programming if you remove them. So there's an enforcement issue here that runs up against an educational issue. The older the school, obviously, the worse this kind of problem is. That’s why we were slated to have new schools to replace some of these old buildings that you can't just simply rewire. They need a brand new service. They need brand new electrical approaches and heating and air conditioning to come through. They’re aware of that, but because of their ideology they’ve decided or they're in the process of deciding that our children don't need those things.

Comm. Taylor: Dr. Hodges, I wanted to know are these the same windows that were not retrofitted before?

Comm. Hodges: Yes.

Comm. Taylor: It was before Dr. Evans came.

Comm. Hodges: They were actually put in.

Comm. Taylor: I remember when they were put in and I thought they straightened those windows out. I'm an asthmatic and if I'm extremely cold I can get deep bronchitis or pneumonia. I know that there are children in those buildings who suffer from asthma and this is a health issue. It's been a health issue. If a child is sitting with a coat on and shivering and the body has gotten too cold, that's a problem. That is a problem.

Comm. Hodges: Paterson and New York are in an asthma corridor.

Comm. Taylor: That's right.

Comm. Hodges: This is a significant issue. But forget about all that. Those children do not deserve to be sitting in that kind of so-called educational environment. This is just plain wrong.

Comm. Taylor: Can you recall when those windows were put in?

Comm. Hodges: I don't know the year, but they were at issue when the whole boiler with the asbestos was done back then. This is circa 2004, 2005, somewhere around

Page 69 11/10/10 there. They came in and replaced the windows, but they put residential windows as opposed to putting the proper ones.

Comm. Taylor: Which school is this?

Comm. Hodges: School 6.

Comm. Taylor: School 6? We have to do something. The community has to do something. We need to do something in that area.

Comm. Hodges: The community does not understand the power that they have as parents. As politicians, the people on the Board are supposed to yell and scream, and we do, but when they get that kind of input from parents they respond. When parents write letters to the newspaper, when they write letters to the legislators, when they write letters to the Governor, when they make phone calls, if 10 people call the State Senator or your Governor’s office you shut the phone lines down and that they pay attention to. But unfortunately parents don't or they just do it one time and if it happens once nobody cares. But if it continues to be done, then they know that a significant number of people are paying attention or are concerned and they respond to that. But that doesn't happen, so it will continue.

Comm. Taylor: Mr. Chair, you were saying the windows and then, Mr. Mendez, you acknowledged the extension cords. If you don't have the extension cord, you can't get your computers up and you can't get air conditioning and you can't get ventilation for the room. These are all health and safety issues. We’re going to have to do something as a community because you just can't let this go on. Remember the fire brouhaha and all the things that our former Mayor made us go through?

Comm. Hodges: That's right.

Comm. Taylor: So now are we back at that level again?

Comm. Hodges: These buildings are not getting any younger. So you can walk into a building and find a fire code violation. It's very easy to do. If the fire department really wanted to be vigilant they could shut down a number of our schools.

Comm. Taylor: When we talk like this the people in the community say, “They just want to make trouble.” Then politicians say the same thing. But we’re thinking about the welfare and the safety of the child in all these old buildings. We've got to do something. We must do something on behalf of the children. My conscience would not be clear if I didn't begin to do something.

Comm. Hodges: It has been the approach of this Board to try to be more cooperative with the state and I bought into that for a substantial period of time. I've not been yelling, screaming, and carrying on about a number of things. I wanted to give that approach an opportunity to work. But when I'm sitting there and watching kids sitting there in a classroom shivering and I get told that they’re going to possibly remove all of our construction and I know what's going on here in some of these classrooms, such as one bathroom for 200 kids, you can't do this. It is little children, not to mention the fact that we’re not in compliance with the state’s own laws in terms of class size. And they don't seem to care about that. So this bothers me, but the image of those kids sitting there in those coats, I can't let go of that.

Page 70 11/10/10 Comm. Irving: Mr. Chair, it's just a request. Can you please just keep this body abreast once the SDA has made any final determination or decision regarding our construction?

Comm. Hodges: I believe that they have said that they’re not going to make any determination until after January. So they’re not going to move on anything. The buildings that we need now, if we do happen to have any, won't start until the spring because the ground will be hard and they can't do anything. So they’re not going to do anything for quite some time.

Comm. Irving: Got it.

Comm. Guzman: My concern is definitely we know at School 6 that is very troubling having our students wearing coats in the middle of trying to concentrate in class session and in study you're just shivering with cold. My question is in regards to the lighting at the New Roberto Clemente. Remember that I brought it up at our workshop meeting?

Comm. Hodges: Do you mean with the floating lights, or the control problem?

Comm. Guzman: The light. I know we mentioned it...

Comm. Hodges: There's a transformer problem which caused those lights to catch fire. I think we’re going to be discussing that in the facilities meeting. But that's not new to them. They are aware that this problem is going on. They want to link it to the controls, which is an ongoing problem which I think we’re supposed to have funding for, fixing and replacing those controls. We’re supposed to have funding. So that may be addressed when that control problem gets taken care of.

Comm. Guzman: Thank you, because I just have the parents asking so I wanted to give them information.

Comm. Mendez: I just have one more question. I remember that we spoke about the amount of safety issues that we have in International. Have we done something with International? Or is it on hold?

Comm. Hodges: Everything is on hold. I believe they completed the control room, but the repairs on the atrium are on hold at least until the spring. Because that's a fire exhaust problem they still have to pay a security team to be in the building to monitor the building to make sure that the kids are safe under those conditions. So understand me now. They’re paying a security team every single day for 182 days while our children are in those buildings, but they don't have any money.

Comm. Mendez: I would just like to hear the amount of money that they pay everyday to that security.

Comm. Hodges: They were paying $1,400 a day, but they went and found a cheaper service.

Comm. Mendez: Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Comm. Hodges: Any further questions? That concludes my report, Mr. President.

Comm. Best: Thank you, Dr. Hodges, for that informative report. You did forget to talk about overcrowding. I was waiting for that. I just knew it was coming.

Page 71 11/10/10 POLICY COMMITTEE

Comm. Irving: Comm. Simmons is out ill and he has been ill for the last two weeks or so. The policy committee has not met. We will indeed be meeting within the next two weeks. There are I believe a series of policies that are up for second reading. Comm. Simmons and I, as well as Dr. Hodges, did have a brief conversation with some community members about the potential of uniforms and athletics in our district. It's just too preliminary of a conversation to even bring up, but those are just some of the initiatives the policy committee has been engaged in. This report is for information only, Mr. President.

Comm. Taylor: Last night we talked about two that were to be developed. Please make sure that your committee does work on that.

Comm. Irving: Got it.

Comm. Taylor: Thank you.

Comm. Irving: Anything else? That concludes my report, Mr. Chair.

Committee Reports

NJQSAC COMMITTEE

Comm. Best: I want to get into QSAC. We discussed it already at length. However, as Dr. Evans has told us, he's had communications with the Commissioner of Education and those scores are forthcoming. Did you say this month? I thought I heard you say this month.

Dr. Evans: I did say this month. I'm expecting them this month.

Comm. Best: Okay. Thank you. Additionally, we've requested from the administration to put together a comprehensive analysis of the QSAC process since the legislation was passed in 2006 as it relates to this school district. We’re asking for what the statue says. It's a three-column report. We’re asking for what the statute says. We’re asking for what the district did in terms of compliance with the statute. And we're also asking for what the state did or did not do in terms of compliance with the statute timelines and guidelines. So that should be coming next week.

Comm. Irving: I made this abundantly clear and I'll make it very clear again. Forthcoming does not sit well with me. I don't know how it sits with my colleagues. These results have been forthcoming for almost a month a half now and I am putting pressure on the Superintendent publicly and I will do it privately as well to get this Board

Page 129 11/10/10 a firm date from the DOE that says that this Board can expect either some resolution, some report, or some document in our hands that we can review in a timely fashion. I believe the state has dodged a bullet tonight in respect to this Board biting its tongue I believe for one final time. But I'll tell you after tonight I don't see this happening for me again unless we get those scores by the next Board meeting. I'm making this clear. I'm drawing my line in the sand now. So I need to know as a member of this Board, I'd like to know, and I'd love to hear my colleagues’ opinion on it, about getting a firm date. I think after waiting this long the minimum we deserve is getting a firm date on when we can get this information. Then we need to convene ourselves and have a conversation about what we get.

Comm. Hodges: I'm not so much concerned about the date that we receive the QSAC report. I'm concerned about how serious this QSAC process is taken by the State Department of Education at all. There's a law that prescribes a certain set of procedures and a certain set of dates that we're both held responsible for. They say that they're supposed to give you 30 days notice before they come in and do their assessment. We did not receive 30 days notice. We received two or three days notice on the assessment before last. On the one before that, the 2009 assessment, we have yet to receive the results yet. That's a year ago. We haven’t received those results. This past July they concluded their results. They have 30 days after they complete their investigation to produce a report. It was completed by the fifth of September and this now the 10th of November. We're supposed to issue a self-assessment on the 15th, five days from now. This Board is supposed to conduct a self-assessment taking into account the last evaluation of what we've done and making significant corrections and improvements based on that last assessment. Well, we have five days and we don't have the last assessment. So now it's incumbent upon us to either arbitrarily submit a self-assessment or like them do it late, which of course we will bear the brunt of those impending sanctions because we didn't comply with the law.

Comm. Best: Point of information. I just wanted to let you know that that November 15th date has been indefinitely suspended.

Comm. Hodges: Which then raises the question as to what the law…

Comm. Taylor: In writing, hard copy, or email?

Comm. Best: We got an email from Gilmartin. Am I correct?

Dr. Evans: I actually received the information in a conversation with the Assistant Commissioner on Monday. I have not received anything in writing yet, but I received it directly from the Assistant Commissioner.

Comm. Taylor: I know, but we need it in writing, Dr. Evans.

Comm. Irving: Once you get it in writing it needs to be shared with the Board of Education. It's five days from now and we're just hearing this.

Comm. Hodges: She was apprized that we needed it in writing. She’s a wonderful lady but what she says may not necessarily be what somebody else holds us accountable for. That's a problem. So it's this consistent indifference to the rules and regulations that they set up which causes us to wonder how seriously, Mr. President, they take this process. Obviously, since we're suffering from it we take this process very seriously. But these changing dates, changing implementations, failure to implement, changing goal posts, all lead us to wonder where this is headed. So I sincerely hope that Mr.

Page 130 11/10/10 Irving’s questions and his needs are addressed so that this district can move forward. Thank you, Mr. President.

Comm. Kerr: Dr. Evans, can you tell us where the results are? Is it at the county level? Or is it still at the state level?

Dr. Evans: It's in the hands of the Commissioner.

Comm. Kerr: It's still in the hands of the Commissioner?

Dr. Evans: Yes.

Comm. Kerr: Okay. Thank you.

Comm. Taylor: If it's in the hands of the Commissioner, we're in the electronic age. Monday she told you, Dr. Evans, about it and if there's a team of people at the State Department of Education they can review it in a couple of days and then send the information on the lines to us. What’s the problem? Do you know?

Dr. Evans: No, I don't. I was simply informed that the Commissioner now had it and was reviewing it. I was also reminded that we've changed Commissioners and that the change in Commissioners did impact on the timeline associated with getting it to us.

Comm. Taylor: But I must remind my Board members that even though we have a change in the command and everything, there are things that we must continue to do on time and that we have timelines and we’ve been trying to live with our timelines. Now, why can't the State Department live with their timelines and get things back to the community? We are like almost the last state-operated district because Jersey City has most of what they need back, Newark has almost everything they need back, but we have nothing and we can't get anything back from the county or from the state. Something is wrong here with this picture. We try to live by the code and the rules and regulations that they set out for us in NJQSAC so far. Mr. Best, you said it correctly. Now they’ve just extended that date. Now that may not happen for real. They said it, but do you have it in writing?

Comm. Best: I guess not.

Comm. Taylor: You don't have it in writing. So I'm telling you that they taught me how to have a paper trail. Do you understand me? That's when paper was in order. Now we have an email trail. You can put it out there and there's a lot of technical people that can pull it out of the air from anywhere down the line up to 10 to 15 years. Do you understand that? If you put it out there they can get it. We have some people that are that savvy on how to get it out of the air again and use it against you or whatever. But I'm telling you something is wrong with this picture.

Comm. Best: I agree with you, Comm. Taylor.

Comm. Mendez: I'm wondering about how responsible the state will be after we receive the QSAC report, if they’re going to come through with the district when it comes to giving us what we deserve after the results. I'm wondering about what's going to happen with us as a district. Thank you, Mr. President.

Comm. Best: Again, I said it at the beginning in my opening remarks. I think that we as a Board have done everything that we possibly can do following all of the guidelines and

Page 131 11/10/10 mandates applied by the state according to the statute. I think that we've governed ourselves extremely well. I think that we've upheld the duties of our office and we've done everything in our power to demonstrate that we've earned the right to again govern ourselves within the district. I'm sure that once those scores come back anything less than that is a conspiracy. That being said, I don't understand how we as a body can continue to conduct business without receiving the scores that we deserve in that timely fashion. If we don't have them by our next meeting, I don't know if there will be a next meeting. So I'm just going to put that out there and that concludes the QSAC report.

PARENT/COMMUNITY COMMITTEE

Comm. Kerr: The Parent/Community Committee did not meet. We will be setting a date for a meeting shortly. I just want to use this opportunity to remind Board members that we're running up against a timeline for your articles for the newsletter. I believe you have received numerous reminders concerning it and you all have been delinquent except a few. So we're asking that all the Board members submit their articles by Friday of this week. So you have a full day to have it prepared. Thank you, Mr. President.

GOVERNMENT JOINT EDUCATION COMMITTEE

Comm. Best: The Government Joint Education Committee didn’t have an official meeting, but there was a meeting held at 90 Delaware as it relates to a partnership with Sustaining New Jersey with the City of Paterson and the Paterson Public School System in which we examined partnerships around recycling within the district. We're continuing to look into that process to see ways that we can share services with the city around not just the recycling program but also other shared services. I am encouraged so far by conversations that we’re having and I'm looking forward to having more.

Comm. Hodges: Mr. President, do we have a policy regarding recycling?

Comm. Best: I don't think we do.

Comm. Taylor: No, we don't.

Comm. Hodges: They had another Sustaining New Jersey meeting today and they invited the district. We need to codify our intent to pursue this recycling. I don't mean just recycling, but also to in some way involve the students. There were discussions about the possibility of implementing an anti-litter program along with that so that it becomes a comprehensive approach. We encourage students to involve themselves in this recycling program, but at the same time keep the city clean. So at least we should have addressed the recycling approach in that policy statement.

Comm. Best: That was referred to the policy committee to develop and I think it’s on the agenda at their next meeting. We’ve all had conversations with the committee about that. I believe they’re working on it.

Comm. Taylor: Where’s Mr. Irving? He may need to refer that to him.

Comm. Best: I personally spoke to Comm. Simmons about it. He assured me that they're working on it.

Comm. Taylor: Because we have a lot of paper.

Page 132 11/10/10

Comm. Best: Yes.

It was moved by Comm. Irving, seconded by Comm. Mendez that the Board holds an executive session on Wednesday, December 1, 2010, immediately following the workshop meeting, to receive an update on negotiations.

Comm. Hodges: Are we going to have a negotiating team as we have in the past?

Dr. Evans: If the Board would like to do that, Dr. Hodges, we certainly would invite it.

Comm. Hodges: I hope that is the Board’s decision. I think it's prudent for the Board to do that.

Comm. Best: We can discuss that at the executive session.

Comm. Taylor: Yes.

Comm. Best: Any other questions?

On roll call all members voted in the affirmative. The motion carried.

It was moved by Comm. Mendez, seconded by Comm. Taylor that the meeting be adjourned. On roll call all members voted in the affirmative. The motion carried.

The meeting was adjourned at 9:10 p.m.
