PRESENTATIONS AND COMMUNICATIONS

Status of Community Schools

Dr. Evans: As you know, our district currently operates three full-service community schools. The locations are School 5, School 4, or the Frank Napier Academy, and New Roberto Clemente Elementary School. Tonight what we are anticipating is an overview and update as to the status of these schools as they are currently operating. For those unaware of what a full-service community school is, it represents the collocation of essential community services on a traditional school campus. The idea is to make more

Page 1 10/19/11 convenient to families served by the school and the general community served by that school those services to be able to ensure that our kids are healthier and that their families have access to those services. With this update you will get a sense of what those services are and how we're doing. Tobi Knehr, our Supervisor of Full-Service Community Schools, will be making the report.

Ms. Tobi Knehr: Good evening. Thank you very much, Dr. Evans, and thank you very much Board of Education Commissioners.

Comm. Taylor: This is a slide presentation. If you'd like to take a better seat to see the presentation, please do Board.

Ms. Knehr: Thank you very much for this opportunity to bring you up to speed on how we‘re doing. If I can be biased, we're doing an amazing job, but I will let our results speak for themselves. To begin with, I'd like to show you what drives our services. We base everything on a comprehensive needs assessment that is done at the schools with the assistance of the community, the students themselves, and the staff members. Then we bring all that together and we produce what is called a Theory of Change document. This document allows us to identify our vision, our mission, and all of our measures that we're going to work to achieve that will demonstrate our successes. We are an outcomes-based process. We know what we want to accomplish and we work backwards to get them. The vision of the Paterson Public Schools Full-Service Community Schools Initiative is that every child is prepared and ready to learn when they enter school everyday, our young people are well-prepared for the workplace as parents and as citizens, our communities are safe, supportive and engaged, and our parents and community members are involved with the school and their own lifelong learning. That is crucial. Our mission is to ensure that 100% of Paterson Public School District students graduate high school prepared for college and are career ready. What does that look like? There are a lot of components that go into that and some of our ideas based on our needs assessment we‘ll know that we're heading in the right direction when each student has a goal that's based on their own interests, that each student has high-quality guidance, both as case management, guidance counselors, and mentors, that each student is knowledgeable about the steps needed to reach their goals, that each student knows how to work in teams, communicate well, and is multilingual, that each student reads and writes at their highest potential and at a level that will allow them to gain a job at a living wage, that each student will be an independent thinker who is flexible and can see other points of view, that each student will be self-reliant, has a multicultural competency, and knows how to create support networks for themselves. Additionally, we need that each student will know how to write a resume. The essence of the Community Schools Initiative is the connection between home and school. That is, family support, family and community engagement activities that bring us closer to one another, it‘s quality education, and it's youth development and community development. All of those pieces go into the whole child, which then develops our communities. What makes us a Full Service Community Schools Initiative is that we include heath services that are available to not only our students, but to the community and their families. Families are defined as who is living in your home today. Before and after school programming really becomes an extended day program. Everything ties in to one another and is based and driven by the core curriculum content standards. The ultimate goal is academic achievement. Last year we began our initiative with Phase I, which is Paterson Public School Number 5. Our lead agency partner there is New Jersey Community Development Corporation and our Site Director is Mr. Ronald Cope. Under Mr. Ronald Cope‘s leadership he developed a program for communication. This is the crux of how we succeed. By developing dynamic relationships with the administration and staff, by having effective communication with

Page 2 10/19/11 the school community, by developing and maintaining strong partnerships between the lead agency and the school, and maintaining community relations with the Fellows who are AmeriCorps volunteers that worked specifically this year in grades k-2. Ultimately it's the school community needs assessment that drives the initiatives. The program culture is the Effective Schools Model. By improving academic performance and providing enrichment programming, developing and maintaining partnerships, providing a safe environment for students during and out-of-school time, and working to ensure that each student reaches their maximum potential. Some of our highlights from last year include 125 students that were enrolled and actively participated and completed the k-8 extended day program. We had family engagement activities that corresponded to school activities. So no time was wasted. We also have the KaBOOM! Playground Project, which if you haven‘t seen is just down the road and we encourage everyone to go. It's open to the community. It's a beautiful playground. We also had several Make a Difference days, including the fall festival a year ago. We have a new one coming up at the end of this month. We also were able to include school performances and activities from other students throughout the district, such as Rosa Parks. One of our greatest successes, not to discount the others, was our adult ESL classes. We served 125 adults at School 5 by making available three separate classes that ran for 16 weeks. The classes met Monday through Thursday and Monday through Friday, depending on whether it was the morning, afternoon, or evening. We were able to complete a 16-week program and now we're going to start the second process where those students will be going onto Level II. It's an amazing accomplishment. I'm very proud of everybody. Looking back at the 2010-2011 school year at School 5 one of the cruxes that really made an impact was the NJCDC AmeriCorps Fellows program. They worked extensively with classroom teachers as well as for after-school programming as an extended day. We also provided homework assistance and we had some really wonderful partnerships with William Paterson University. The cultural activities and enrichments, these are taken exactly from the needs assessments and the students themselves. The students said, ―We want performing arts,‖ so we‘ve been working with a dance troupe to provide that. We've been working with Bergen PAC to carry on several of those opportunities, and also the STEM, nutrition, and Culinary Arts. If you go to School 5 even today everything is running so smoothly it's amazing. I want to highlight here that last year we had 125 students. We had to stop at 125 because that's all the funding I have. But the amazing thing is that a year before, there were only 35 students enrolled in the extended day activities. So we quadrupled that. We went from 35 students to 125 students and it pained us to cut us off at 125, but we will change that. Also, we provided activities for families and community members. With a wonderful partnership with Bergen PAC we were able to take two separate trips to Bergen PAC where families were able to enjoy a performance as well as take classes from the theater performers themselves. We also had separate field trips for families to go to the Liberty Science Center. I also want to point out that last year‘s parent workshops received an award from the NJAfter3 Program. They were featured in their Promising Practices Showcase. So we have some amazing things. People from the state are looking to us to replicate our best practices. It's really a job well done. Moving forward, it's hard to see out here, but the changes are in red. I apologize for that not showing up. To highlight the things that are moving forward, at School 5 we've taken AmeriCorps volunteers, the Fellows, and this year we have strategically placed one Fellow in each classroom from grades k-2. Those Fellows have been trained by the content supervisor and literacy coaches in reading intervention skills. They're working with the teachers to do the DIBELS testing, to do guided reading, and really help to build those early literacy skills strategically. Also, we‘ve partnered with Hofstra University to create a WISEngineering program for grade 7. We have a fulltime social worker at School 5 that works with parents, community members, and students. This is probably the most crucial piece that we've been able to accomplish. She‘s amazing.

Page 3 10/19/11 Moving into the family and community side, we have a partnership with TD Bank and also will be featuring the Strengthening Families Program that will be at all three of our sites, which is a 7-week family mentoring program that works with students and parents simultaneously. So you're really building those families. We're going to be continuing with ESL classes. They are already underway at School 5 and we'll be expanding that to various job readiness programs. Looking over at the School Based Health Center, that whole piece is in red because it's one of our newest accomplishments. It is currently being run temporarily out of the school nurse‘s office, but as we develop with the site at School 5 it will have its own permanent home. At the School Based Health Center there will be pediatric services. There will be primary medical services for adults. There will also be vision services through a partnership with Optical Academy. We currently have asthma services with Respira. And we also have a mobile dentistry. That will also be changing as our permanent site opens up because we will have dentistry on staff. Now, I'd like to shift gears a bit to New Roberto Clemente. This is a bit of what we're going to do this year. Many of our partners are the same. Many of the headers, shall I say, are the same. But what's going to look different is how they are carried out at New Roberto Clemente. They will reflect the spirit of that community and they will reflect the needs of that community, again, tied directly to our needs assessments. Again, our focus is family, academics, and enrichment, all of those pieces. We'll be able to have health services there as well as we grow. I want to go back. I apologize. Looking back at New Roberto Clemente I do want to point out that our lead agency partner is St. Paul‘s Community Development Corporation and also our Site Director is Sally Ortega. Moving on to Reverend Dr. Frank Napier Jr. Academy, we are sponsored there with our lead agency partner, which is the Boys and Girls Club of Paterson and Passaic, and our Site Director is Kelly Makino. This year we started off obviously trying to recover and live through and survive Hurricane Irene. We weren‘t prepared for what our director was going to be doing because none of that is on a needs assessment. None of the things that Ms. Makino had to do in her first month were on here job description. Yet she stepped up, she formed new alliances, and found new partners. She was able to work with Jones New York, The United Way, Paterson Alliance, the Paterson Free and Public Library and many more to come to the aid of the students, families, and teachers as they were relocated to three different sites. She worked to help ease that transition and then she said, ―Okay, now what?‖ Looking at what we want to do for that community and what the community wants to do for themselves, we are going to be temporarily housed out of School 28. The principal and his staff and their community has opened their arms and their doors to give us a site so that we can build that community that will ultimately grow School 28 and Dr. Frank Napier and be able to leverage everything that each of those brings so that we can expand our services. I'm very excited about that. Kelly, thank you. Job we'll done. I want to point out things that we've been able to do, our accomplishments district-wide, because technically we have three schools, but we touch so many more and so much more than just those three. We are based out of School 5, but in everything we do we incorporate Don Bosco and I've started working with JFK. At New Roberto Clemente we incorporate School 5 and we've started working with Eastside High School. At Dr. Frank Napier the obvious was School 28, but we also talked about how we could reach out to the families around ULA. In addition to that, we've been able to partner with the Alliance for a Healthier Generation for the Healthy Schools Initiative. By expanding beyond us we've been able to work with the district‘s physical education department to bring this initiative to the schools throughout the district, and also our Adult Education program. By working with our supporters, first and foremost I would say is the Family & Community Engagement Department, we are able to strengthen each other and leverage what we do. So it might be at one school, but it's open and available to all. If you can get there we will serve you. Health and Wellness, the vision, dental, and medical services, it's housed in a school but it is open to all. That is our goal. I'm very

Page 4 10/19/11 excited that other schools and other principals have asked are we ready to share our best practices. They want to do needs assessments. They want to tie their school improvement plans to needs assessments, which is ultimate. We very excited about that. Also, the WISEngineering Hofstra University program will be working with schools to help carry out that as well, and as I mentioned before, our partnership with the Family & Community Engagement Department. Our short-term goal is really to see that academic improvement. It's working with the assessment department so that we can identify the students. We can tag them in our data processing systems. We can track them. We can assess them. And we can make real time changes as we need and also include the community with us as we move forward. Our long-term results are that our students attend and graduate college and that they emerge from college ready for their careers and their citizenship. Our desired impact is that we increase college graduates, that we have healthy families and communities, that we decrease the use of emergency rooms for non-emergency situations. Our goals are to lower our rates of truancy and our dropouts. We also hope to reduce vandalism and petty crimes. We also hope to decrease drug abuse. The financing of our initiative is many-fold. We've been wonderfully blessed with philanthropic support. Most notable is JP Morgan Chase. They've generously donated funds to both us and our partners so that we can leverage each other and propel this initiative. We have been very successful with our federal grant programs. We've received $2.8 million from the US Department of Education and we've also received $500,000 as a capital grant from Health and Human Services. Looking at the state, the state has recognized Dr. Frank Napier as a Full Service Community School and they've been a SIG recipient. Also, by looking at the local government as well as our school based, looking how we can leverage everybody‘s budgets is about streamlining and developing what you do best and what I do best and partnering to go forward. These are most of our partners. I hope I didn‘t forget anybody. If I did, I really beg your pardon. As far as the district goes, there are so many ins and outs and caveats that I really must thank these particular departments. It‘s not one person because it takes a village. The school security department - without school security we wouldn‘t have safe places for children and families to be after hours. Facilities and maintenance – again without safe buildings open and usable we would not have a home. The academic services, our assessments, planning and evaluation, our communications department, our accounts payable, our business services, our technology department, family and community engagement, which I thank them a lot. I think they know how special they are. The Paterson Adult School, which is an amazing place with wonderful people, ultimately the Superintendent‘s office, because without his vision I would not have a job, and the Board of Education, because without you're approval of his vision we wouldn‘t have a job. So most graciously I thank you. If you have any questions, please feel free.

Dr. Evans: If I may, Madam President, I'd like to summarize very briefly. This is in a real sense service to our community. It's taking a school that provides traditional educational services, but going beyond that. Many of our children come to school hungry. Many of our children come to school with health issues. Their families have health issues. Many of them don‘t have meaningful activities to participate in after school. The purpose of this concept is to close those gaps, to not only help children succeed by addressing health issues and by addressing meaningful play issues, by providing supplemental educational services in the truest sense, but also expanding that to the families and the community that immediately encircles that particular school. The result will be higher performing kids, healthier kids, healthier families, and in the truest sense helping all our children and our families to ultimately benefit from what others may think of as simply a place for education. It's going far beyond that. I want to thank Ms. Knehr for her leadership for making this a reality. I also want to thank the many partners. You saw a long list of partners in the community that helped. As she said, in

Page 5 10/19/11 this particular case it does take a village and a village is helping us to make this a reality.

Comm. Taylor: Are there any questions, Board members?

Comm. Mendez: I also would like to acknowledge and congratulate you for the outstanding job that you've been doing in our community. I have to say I'm extremely impressed with the effective communication that you have created at School 5 with the community. Also the after-school homework assistance is extremely helping our children. We know that we have a hard-working community that works sometimes one or two jobs and by the time they get home the children have their homework done. So I think we're moving in the right direction. So, thank you so much and I expect the same result with the New Roberto Clemente, with School 5, and one and on. I believe that we're going to get it done. Thank you.

Comm. Hodges: As usual I have a mixed message. I am pleased that there are so many programs in place there. I, of course, am very anxious to see that translated into improved, not just test performance, but student performance. There is a difference as you know that others may not know. We struggle with our children and their ability to analyze problems and other areas which aren‘t always captured on our tests. So I'm hoping that the focus of these programs will address those issues that we have so much trouble with. I hope that we are able to expand this project substantially so we can be of service to all the students in our district. So good luck, thank you very much, and I'll be watching.

Ms. Knehr: You were easy on me, Dr. Hodges.

Comm. Hodges: Tonight, because there are witnesses around.

Ms. Knehr: Thank you for being here.

Comm. Hodges: Next time.

Comm. Rodriguez: I also want to congratulate you and the team that is behind you in this initiative. It is extremely important for our community to have a lot more community schools. But I have a question. I don't know how many people in the public or those that are watching us on TV understand or know the advantage or the benefits that playing chess bring to the table. I see that you have it in some of the schools, but why don‘t we have it at Dr. Frank Napier School?

Ms. Knehr: The needs assessment didn‘t point that one out as strongly so it didn‘t make it to the top list. But that doesn‘t mean it's not on the list. It's there. It's just not one of the top.

Comm. Rodriguez: But it's going to be there. I live around that school and I know how beneficial such programs as chess could be, how much our kids in that particular community can develop their brains rather than their physical abilities and the advantages that playing chess brings to the table and brings to our kids. It's a muscle that we haven't worked a lot in Paterson that we need to start working a lot more. It's the muscle that we have here in our head. But I want to acknowledge your hard work and thank you for everything that you've been doing.

Comm. Irving: Tobi, I echo everybody. Wow. Good job. I have two questions for you and one just has to do with ensuring that people are aware. When I say aware, it's not

Page 6 10/19/11 just that this is here. They really should be affected to the point where they recognize that this service becomes a service they can depend on. Have we done any open house events at any of the community schools where we have literally opened the doors and allowed people to see firsthand some of the services? If we have, can you tell me about the success?

Ms. Knehr: Absolutely. At the Fall Festival there were over 500 participants from the community, as well as students and their parents. We've been working very successfully at School 5 with the local synagogues to reach out to their congregations. Also, we've earned great support of the business owners surrounding School 5. We've recently expanded ourselves to include Kennedy High School. We realized that was a shortcoming from last year and we started to work to bridge that. Also looking at moving forward we've had several different types of community fair events. We recently had a medical fair at School 5 where we had relatively about 500 outpouring and we had representatives from the medical field including social work. We had different social service agencies that were there. We also worked with the fire department and the police department talking about community organizing.

Comm. Irving: Is the same type of energy going to be waved when we're talking about New Roberto Clemente and especially for Napier since the change in location?

*Comm. Simmons enters the meeting at 7:45 p.m.

Ms. Knehr: Correct. As we move forward you'll begin to see those develop also. I know New Roberto Clemente has their Fall Festival and ribbon-cutting that's going to be coming up. I believe it's on the website. It should be out very shortly, but it is the weekend of October 29. Also, that‘s like the grand opening, shall we say, of the community school. Dr. Frank Napier the school leadership and the community collectively have decided not to have a grand opening at School 28, to wait until the building is reopened. But we will begin to have community festivals and health and wellness fairs. All of those components will be there. There‘s a literacy campaign that‘s underway and as they develop you'll start to see more of those. But because I don't do it, it's dependent on the community and the school, is why it is a development. If I did it I could just say next week we're going to have this and this and this, but it wouldn‘t mean anything. So, because those are our two new schools, that's why they haven't had anything yet. But they will be, and once they're out and open, absolutely.

Comm. Irving: But you can still encourage folks to use that model as a successful model that we use at School 5.

Ms. Knehr: Absolutely. The site directors meet weekly to share best practices and help develop each other‘s program outlook. Absolutely! We're resourcing each other all the time. Also the lead agencies I meet with them every other week to talk about plans moving forward as the big picture and what types of events can we have at every site that would make it available to the mass community. We know that each site will have, for instance, a family literacy program. If I cannot go to the one at School 5 but I can make it to New Roberto Clemente, I'm going to New Roberto Clemente. The same program, the same curriculum, and that will be travelled throughout the schools. Our goal is that we are able to take this beyond our three schools and to implement these at every school.

Comm. Taylor: That's three questions?

Comm. Irving: It was a two-part.

Page 7 10/19/11

Comm. Taylor: That‘s three. Okay, quickly.

Comm. Irving: Yes, ma‘am. It has to do with just moving forward and more specifically School 6. We have so many of these initiatives that are happening at schools that have a great deal of resources. We have community schools which involve three very dynamic schools. Napier clearly is a school on the rise, which is great. We have the Innovation Zone that includes some of these schools, but not School 6. If we're talking about moving forward, if there was ever a community that I believe is in need of those services from a community standpoint, it's the community surrounding School 6. My question is, what is our plan for the next phase to incorporate another round of schools into this? We can have a conversation about and debate whether or not School 6 should be in it, but you know what my answer will be. But what is this process going to look like let's say two or three years from now?

Comm. Taylor: Mr. Irving, that‘s part of our planning situation and when we do workshop we‘ll have her come in and work with us on that. Dr. Hodges, you had another breath you wanted to take?

Comm. Hodges: Very briefly, I wanted to support Comm. Rodriguez‘ concerns about the chess. This has been an issue that we have raised before. For a simple matter of maybe $50 you could have five chess boards set up per school. I think in the elementary level it would be great to have an intramural chess league which could then develop into an interscholastic chess program throughout the county. I'm going to be pushing to have that done, I just don‘t know who to annoy with that.

Comm. Guzman: I'm going to be very brief. I just want to once again echo my colleagues and commend you and thank you very much for bringing this presentation forward. I have received very positive results from the parents of School 5 and how they feel the engagement and the relationship that they have between parents, teachers, and administrators. Everything that's going on in that school is actually very productive. So I'm looking forward to bringing this model into other schools and I commend you and thank you once again for bringing this forward.

Comm. Mendez: I have a question about School 5. When are we planning to have a full kitchen at School 5?

Comm. Taylor: What kind of a kitchen?

Comm. Mendez: I understand it's a plate cooking kitchen at School 5. We don‘t have a full kitchen or a cooking kitchen for fresh food. I understand the importance of having a full kitchen, especially at School 5 as a community school.

Ms. Knehr: That is something that‘s under development.

Comm. Taylor: Thank you. That's enough right now. What I need to know from you is in each one of these schools you have a principal and in all your reports you do not mention the principal. The principal is a partner. We have provided the leader of the building for you. I would like to know the principal of School 5, the principal of New Roberto Clemente, the principal of Dr. Napier, and the principal of School 28.

Ms. Knehr: School 28 is Mr. Marc Medley, Dr. Frank Napier is Ms. Rosalie Bespalko, New Roberto Clemente is Ms. Madeline Roman, and School 5 is Ms. Maria Santa.

Page 8 10/19/11 Comm. Taylor: Thank you very much. I know the leaders of the building and I think you need to know that they are the leader of the buildings and they are the people that bring all of you together and organize you. If they aren‘t, then Dr. Evans will have something to say about that. You may have a person that is your site director. They get to talk with and do face-to-face with our other partners an everything else, but the people in the building have to do the academics. Our principals are in charge of making sure that the academics are taken care of. This program was in last year. I don‘t recall receiving the assessment. I do have the assessment that the state sent us about how well you did. Dr. Evans says he has something else on his mind besides just doing the testing, but part of the testing and assessment is very important because that‘s what the public sees. That's what the public grades us on. So I need to know where you placed on the AYP. They're all very important on these because you have after-school programs and you have your chess that he asked for, for the brain activity. But there is more and there are other things for the brain activity happening, also. Chess is not the only thing. Dominoes are not bad either if you get to know how to play it. You can use words in the dominoes. Anyway, you learn vocabulary that way. I love dominoes. I play chess also, but right now those are brain activities. There are other things too that we have that children can play in their recreation time and it can become a life activity when we teach it to children at a young age and keep it going. I thank you very much for your services. Keep up the good work and get some more grants in here.

Ms. Knehr: Thank you very much. Have a great night.

Comm. Taylor: You've done pretty good so far.

Results of New Jersey Quality Single Accountability Continuum (QSAC) Scores

Comm. Taylor: Dr. Evans, I'm going to give the results of the New Jersey Quality Single Accountability Continuum scores. That‘s QSAC. When you hear the word QSAC it stands for the New Jersey Quality Single Accountability Continuum. I don‘t like to say all those words. But parents understand that every year they tell the Board how to act and they assess us. We get marked. So tonight I have something that I'd like to report out to you because we were sent a letter on September 21, 2011 and it says, ―The district QSAC placement results will be provided to the State Board at an upcoming meeting. Please advise the QSAC regulations require your district advisory board to report these results at the next regularly scheduled Board meeting.‖ That is what I'm doing now. It's taken from the New Jersey State law 18A:7A-15D and also NJAC6A:30- 71B. It is very pertinent to us and it gives a lot of authority to the State Commissioner of Education. He is Mr. Cerf at this time and he determines whether to recommend to the State Board of Education that the process for partial withdrawal for intervention be initiated shall consider the district sufficiently demonstrates and it lists a few things that he says that we need to have done. I'm going to talk about the scoring that had been done in previous years. We had the first round of NJQSAC in 2007. We were scored in instruction and program. We were scored in fiscal management, that‘s how we take care of the money. We were scored in operations, that's how we take care of the building and whether we got new buildings or whether we maintained the buildings we had. Then the next one was personnel and the last one was governance. What I'm going to do particularly with you tonight, because I want to present a resolution to this Board so we can go forward with it. I have been in communication by written hard copy and also e-mail with the State Commissioner about the status of governance for the Board of Education. Does everyone understand me at this time, Board? Thank you. In 2007 our initial placement was 11%. That was our score out of 100. Is that correct? It was 11 out of 100 - 11%. The next year in an interim review our placement in January

Page 9 10/19/11 2010 was 44%. Hey, we're getting a little closer. To pass we had to reach 80%. So in December 2010 we reached 88%. Then they came back in to see us again and the last assessment was done in the early part of 2011. Then we got another 88%. At that time we felt as a Board that the last assessment after having two grades of 88%, and I'm dealing with numbers just like the state, now we sent communication to the State Commissioner to ask him what was he going to do with giving us our share of sharing in local control. I have not heard back from him. I began writing him at the beginning of September. I wrote in the middle of September. I believe this is in the middle of October and I have not heard back from the State Commissioner. So at this time I'd like to read the resolution to appeal failure to receive return to local control via QSAC. It's their instrument that they use for us as a Board of Education and we need to talk to this. I'm going to read it to you at this time:

RESOLUTION TO APPEAL FAILURE TO RECEIVE RETURN TO PARTIAL LOCAL CONTROL VIA NJQSAC

Whereas, the Paterson Board of Education via the New Jersey Quality Single Accountability Continuum (QSAC) process was duly evaluated and found to have demonstrated a high level of performance by achieving a QSAC score of 88 points in the quality performance indicator of governance in two consecutive reviews.

Whereas, NJSA18A:7A states that if you reach the requisite threshold at least 80 points in a particular quality performance indicator the Board of Education may be restored to local control in that quality performance indicator.

Whereas, the Commissioner of Education has determined that the Paterson Board of Education has in fact surpassed in the quality performance indicator of governance the requisite threshold of high performance needed to qualify for return to local control in that quality performance indicator, but declined to permit the Paterson Board of Education to return to local control in the performance indicator of governance.

Now, therefore be it resolved, that the Paterson Board of Education elects to appeal the decision of the Commissioner of Education not to grant local control to the Paterson Board of Education despite the state’s own evaluation via the QSAC process which determined that the Paterson Board of Education had surpassed the requisite 80-point threshold in the quality performance indicator of governance in two consecutive reviews.

Be it further resolved, that the Paterson Board of Education commits to take all action necessary for the successful pursuit of this end.

Be it finally resolved, that the Paterson Board of Education will be engaging an attorney at no cost to the Paterson Public School District to assist the advisory board in filing the legal brief for the appeal.

It was moved by Comm. Mendez, seconded by Comm. Guzman that the Board adopts the resolution.

Comm. Rodriguez: Just as a point of clarification, I believe you explained it well, but in the resolution my suggestion is that rather than say ―resolution to appeal the failure to receive return to local control via QSAC‖ that we can incorporate the word ―partial‖ to

Page 10 10/19/11 make clear and not to bring any confusion to the public and that we are looking for our piece of the pie, that is the governance only.

Comm. Taylor: We were the only section that cleared the hurdle of 80 points. Do you understand what I'm saying? That's the part I'm asking for at this time. Without any kind of impediments from the Commissioner we should be able to act like a Board of Education.

Comm. Rodriguez: Exactly. But that would give us partial control. It's just a piece of the pie, which is just the governance part. It's just a point to clarify so the public doesn‘t…

Comm. Taylor: I have to return to local control in the performance indicator of governance.

Comm. Rodriguez: Exactly. I'm talking about in the fourth paragraph.

Comm. Taylor: The top part?

Comm. Rodriguez: Exactly, in the title of the resolution and in the fourth paragraph in the first sentence, second line that says ―grant partial local control.‖ It's just to avoid any confusion with the public.

Comm. Kerr: I think what Comm. Rodriguez is talking about is the header right here.

Comm. Taylor: I understand.

Comm. Kerr: I'm in support of his amendment to insert ―partial‖ in the header.

Comm. Hodges: I agree that it should appear in the heading and I think there's a growing consensus that the word ―partial‖ should appear in the heading. I don‘t think it should appear in the body because the body is specifically talking about a performance indicator and therefore I don‘t want partial return. But clearly it clarifies the title and…

Comm. Taylor: At this time would we consider putting the word ―partial‖ in the title?

Comm. Hodges: We can amend the motion, Madam Chair.

Comm. Taylor: Will you take a friendly amendment?

Comm. Hodges: I have no problem with that at all.

It was moved by Comm. Rodriguez, seconded by Comm. Mendez that the resolution be amended to reflect the word “partial” in the header. On roll call all members voted in the affirmative on the amendment. The motion carried.

Comm. Hodges: I just wanted to point out a couple of things. There are some court costs. Now there is a total of $300 which we're going to have to work out as a Board. Regarding filing fees, there will be an accounting. I'm being sent that from the lawyer. The lawyer is doing this pro bono at this particular point in time. He's not paying for our fees, though. We need to understand that this is not just Paterson. Newark has found itself in the same position. It has been awarded 80 points in four of the five categories and was told, ―No. You must stay in your 15th or 16th year of local control.‖ We've been

Page 11 10/19/11 in it for 20. So this is a significant step. I think it's long overdue and I look forward to moving forward with this appeal.

Comm. Irving: One thing I want to make clear to the public and folks who are here in the audience and people who are watching on TV, and my colleagues alluded to it, is there are five indictors, one of which is governance, which is what we are contesting. Of the five indicators the only one that this Board of Education is responsible for solely is governance. All the other indicators the State of New Jersey via their Superintendent and the staff who works for the State of New Jersey is responsible for. So when we talk about the district has not met the proficiency necessary to justify return to local control, that equals the state has not done their job to reach the standards that they set for themselves. But this Board has and has continued to do so for the last three years. We are tired of sitting here and taking it and this step is a first step for us fighting back. I do believe that we will receive local control much sooner than later. I believe that the law is on our side, momentum is on our side and this Board is united to make that push.

Comm. Mendez: I believe that, speaking on Comm. Hodges‘ comment, it's extremely important that the community understands what we're looking for. For the past 20 years the state has been here in Paterson and they‘ve been running our district. In the last two assessments we scored over 80% as a Board and like my colleague said, that is our responsible as a Board. So I believe that it's time now that the state gives us the control that we need to run the district to make sure that we make the changes that we need in the community. I believe that they have failed in how to run our district. Thank you, Madam Chair.

Comm. Taylor: For myself, I don‘t want to beat a dead horse here because I think parents understand that we need to do our own business and we feel this Board has caused a lot of the things to be done that the state has required of us and we bend over backwards. The superintendents that we have had have tried to do the same thing but they can't seem to get it just right for state. Now we have a new Superintendent and he's in his second year and he's trying to get it right, but they don‘t even want to give him a chance either. I know in education you need to give a person at least five years to get something going. If you are honest with yourself you need to have that much time to really work it when you have more than 30,000, more than 3,000 faculty members, and also parents and community. So you need to know that this is not just a baby game. This is a very complex business that we're in to make sure every child is touched and reach our goal of making sure every child graduates from elementary and high school and graduates from college. We have to make that preparation and we have a Superintendent now that we think will get the job done if we all rally around and gather and do it.

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

REPORT OF STATE DISTRICT SUPERINTENDENT

Dr. Evans: I have three items for you this evening. First, some of you have questioned where we are with School 4, particularly with the building that flooded out and where we are with its preparation to either re-inhabit or look at some other alternatives. I‘ve asked our Executive Director for Facilities, Chris Sapara-Grant, to come and to give us an update tonight.

Mr. Chris Sapara-Grant: Good evening, Madam President, Commissioners, Dr. Evans, and everybody. This is a brief report on the status of the Napier School. Since the last meeting a month ago the facilities department, risk management, and the business

Page 12 10/19/11 office have been working together vigorously to try and get the building opened. We've been working with insurance carriers for flood damage and our regular insurance carrier. We've been working with FEMA and we've been trying to get everything in place. My report is that currently we seem to be on track in terms of getting everything done before the end of the annual year as we had indicated. We've gotten today approvals from the insurance company to proceed with the replacement of the switchgear that was totally immersed in the flood. One of the things we're going to do with the switchgear is to raise it two feet above the current elevation so that under a normal flood we might be able to prevent damage. The key word here is under a normal flood. What we had this year was not normal at all. We are also replacing the splice box, which is the box that takes the main power and distributes it within the building. We are also replacing the fire alarm panel and the emergency generator. These items have already been approved by the insurance company based on quotes we received already. The work with the switchgear will take about five weeks from now once we issue the PO and with the generator about three weeks, also with the fire alarm panel. We are working with the insurance company to get the boiler replaced. Yesterday they sent in their engineers to review the scope of work as developed by our contractor and we're waiting for final approval. Once that is done it's going to take about eight weeks to have the boiler going. If for some reason they are not able to get everything in place we might have a temporary boiler just to be able to get our systems going. Currently we‘ve drained all the systems in the building so that with the freezing temperatures we do not have any additional breakage. Once we have stabilized our temperature then we‘ll go ahead and replace floors and the other systems that are…(end of tape) (Beginning of new tape)…we met with PSE&G regarding the transformer. Right on Clinton Street there is a PSE&G transformer. PSE&G would not activate the transformer until all the electrical work in the building has been done. However, they are going to go in and review and make sure that once we are ready, the transformer is ready to go. We are also working with KI, the company that installed the auditorium seats two years ago. They need to come in and evaluate the auditorium seats to determine whether they are salvageable or whether we need to replace them. If we need to replace them, then it becomes an insurance claim. Just from a visual we seem to be in good shape, expect for some panels. We'll leave that to KI to determine because the seats were under warranty. Regarding the floors, the existing floors that were damaged were mostly wood floors and with the exception of the auditorium that we feel the wood floor gave it some element of quality, we are going to go away from replacing wooden floors and we're going to use vinyl floors, VCT, that would be able to handle water in the short-term and a quick cleanup. So once we have a settlement from the insurance company we‘re going to proceed with those floors.

Comm. Taylor: Vinyl that‘s okay by OSHA?

Mr. Sapara-Grant: Yes, it is. In most locations you see the 12 by 12 vinyl floors. In some locations at Napier we had the 9 by 9 floors which have asbestos materials in them, so in order to do that we'll have to do some abatement so that at least we're able to handle the classrooms. Napier has terrazzo in its corridors so luckily with the terrazzo and the regular concrete we did not get a lot of damage. We were able to clean up. We also have a clinical hygienist on contract reviewing the work that has to be done in terms of any possible mold and lead paint in what I call flood cutting. Where we have plaster or gypsum board damage we need to cut about four feet off. But because of the years of painting it's necessary that we do not expose the occupants when they come back to any environmental issues. That is my brief report in case there are any questions.

Comm. Taylor: You'll be available to the Board in case they have other questions?

Page 13 10/19/11

Ms. Sapara-Grant: Yes, I will.

Comm. Taylor: This is ongoing and there are a lot of problems with roofs all throughout the district. It's been raining some more, two and a half inches I understand, will end for this period right now that we just had. So we'll be in touch with you.

Mr. Sapara-Grant: I'll be available.

Comm. Taylor: Thank you.

Dr. Evans: Next, Madam President, I'd like to recognize and commend one of our School Board officers for his heroism. It is with great pleasure and honor that I report to you the heroic actions of Board Officer Lenny Vega. On October 19, 2011 at approximately 1:50 a.m. while on his way to conduct property checks at School 4 and School 28, Officer Vega encountered a young female juvenile woman trying to wave down cars for help while she was standing in the roadway on North Straight Street Bridge near Haledon Avenue. He stopped his vehicle and the woman stated a man was after her and that he showed her a knife. He then called the Paterson Police Department to ask for assistance. While Officer Vega was on the phone the man then suddenly threw the knife at him but did not injure him. The man then lunged at him with another knife and tried to attack him. Officer Vega was able to disarm the man and then secure him until police arrived moments later. The tremendous courage displayed by Officer Vega, who was unarmed, to save the life of an unknown female juvenile must not go unrecognized. Officer Vega could very easily have been hurt, but acting on instinct he prevented what could easily have been a tragedy on the streets of Paterson. Officer Vega is in the audience. That's him standing in the back. Once again, we commend and thank him for his heroism. Lastly, Madam President, I'd like to…

Capt. James Smith: Dr. Evans, I'd just like to tell you – I hate to interrupt you – but the parent of the victim girl showed up tonight to thank Officer Vega for saving his daughter‘s life and I'd like to acknowledge the parent.

Dr. Evans: Sure.

Mr. Darren Jones: My name is Darren Jones and my daughter is Mary Casper. She said nobody else would stop for her and he did. I just want to say thank you for it and I appreciate it. You saved her life because the guy was out to really do some harm to her, real damage. So I just want to say thank you.

Dr. Evans: Lastly, I want to commend our Family & Community Engagement staff under the leadership of Mr. Kemper McDowell for a successful Family & Community Conference this weekend. There were some problems but they were the kinds of problems you want to have, meaning there were more parents and more participants than were anticipated. We love to have those kinds of problems and because of that problem obviously we're going to have to find a bigger space next year to be able to account for them. The numbers that I received were that there were upwards of 600 people. I think there were probably more when I was there serving that conference. But again, I want to thank Mr. McDowell and his staff and thank the parents who came out to participate. Thank you to the community partners and staff who participated as well. That concludes my report, Madam President.

REPORT OF BOARD PRESIDENT

Page 14 10/19/11 Comm. Taylor: I was at the parent conference for a small amount of time. I addressed the parents and I was so glad to see so many. I was so happy because my faith is in my parents to send the children to school and get them there and charge them up before they go. Learn everything you can and pay attention to your teachers. That what my parents told me and I'm so happy that you have done that. Parents - magnifico. I have asked Mr. McDowell to speak with our parent liaison staff and also anyone else connected with the parent communication group. I want Mr. McDowell to keep in contact with Ms. Corallo because she can give out pieces of information to the community through the Superintendent about our parents and what they're doing. People think our parents don‘t care about our children, but that's a lie. That‘s not the truth. Paterson parents care and I've been in here with our parents for over 50 years now and I know you care. I taught your children. We don‘t want to go any further because I know you have children with you and I want to get to this right away. I am a little disappointed that we don‘t have our full complement of parent leaders and parent groups already organized. But I'm going to call off the names of the places of the schools that do have it and when I call can your representatives please come forward and come over here by the microphone area. JFK Academies, your representatives. PANTHER Academy, your representatives. Great Falls Academy, your representatives. Go on. See they're coming and they keep coming. School 20. Is School 20 here? Say yes. Alright. Rosa Parks High School, say yes if you're here. Alright. School 6. This is the one that Irving loves. I love it too. I used to work around there all the time. School 6, are you here? Alright. Destiny Academy, alright. Destiny Academy, where are you? Say yes. STARS Academy, I know you're here. STARS Academy, come on. Eastside Academies, alright. Preschool Michael‘s Energy Factory, you‘re here? Alright. School 1. Look at these parents coming. School 9. I saw you. School 9, you're here. I know. School 15, alright. Good. I saw you earlier. School 10, the school that I taught at. You're here. School 21. Alright. You're coming. I know. New Roberto Clemente, where are you? Alright. International High School. There you go. Two hands. Gilmore Preschool. Alright. Sports Business Academy, where are you? Alright. Urban Leadership Academy. There you go. Preschool has an initiative helping to establish parent organizations in those schools that don‘t already have therm. They're working on getting some more because sometimes you have to do some more contact with preschoolers. These leaders will participate in our district leadership training. All of us are going to be participating in our district leadership training along with our elementary and high school parent leaders. Our liaison people, where are you? Liaisons, where are you? Raise your hands. Nobody is here? Come over here too. Come on down. I'm not going to give any prizes. Come on down. Liaisons play a very important part in encouraging parents to come to do the right thing for their children. Do you see this? I want the parents in the audience to see this group. Every school will receive a certificate to hang in their building. Every school is going to get this. Everybody will get this. If you have a parent organization you're going to get it. I appreciate you so much. I may cry but I'll hold it. Paterson Daycare 100, you're here? Come on. Let me here it. Is HeadStart here? Did we miss anyone? And you're here. I don't want to miss anyone. Paterson Public School District certificate of recognition presented to the parent organization public school number, or academy, or high school, or preschool will be on that line. In recognition of successful establishment of a school based parent organization and the fair and open election of leadership toward building the capacity of families to support their children and ensure student achievement. I know that's what you're headed for because I've had some of you in my class. I know you're headed for achievement and I want our children in school every day on time. You tell them to get in there and learn everything they have to learn, be good to their teachers, and be good to themselves. We have that bullying thing going on. I know you're children are not involved. Make sure the school is friendly and I charge you to create the friendliest schools in the district and in Passaic County. I charge you to do that, the best schools

Page 15 10/19/11 in achievement and getting along with each other. I do charge you. Raise your right hand and say, ―I swear I will help my child learn everything and other children in the building as well and be as friendly as possible to the children and to my other parents.‖ Thank you so much. I was so glad to see you. Amen. Yes, parent strength. Parents got it going on.

Comm. Irving: Madam President, you're fired up tonight.

Comm. Hodges: Ms. Taylor, you miss the classroom?

Comm. Taylor: Mr. McDowell, make sure every school gets one now. You promised me everybody was here tonight and all the new ones as they come on. I thank you for coming.

Comm. Guzman: I know the parents are walking out. I just want to take a minute to congratulate those parents. I did get a moment to speak to some of them while they were at the reception.

Comm. Mendez: I also want to congratulate those leaders that we have over here, those parents. You have a very big job in our community and your job is getting parents back to school and inform them. When the parents are well informed they will be the best advocate for the children.

Comm. Taylor: What I want to tell you is to not just come to one night. I want you to send a representative back here every time we meet so they can come back to the school and let you know what kind of business we took care of. You saw a little piece of our business tonight. Bring back World Language. I understand. I got it going. Alright. Thank you. Do the wave.

PUBLIC COMMENTS

Comm. Taylor: Our public can speak now. Turn off your cell phones. You have three minutes to say what you want to say.

Comm. Kerr: If they need to talk just tell them to go outside because it's disturbing.

Comm. Taylor: If you need to have a conversation please go out in the hallway because I've got to keep a schedule going.

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

Comm. Taylor: Please turn off your cell phones or whatever technology you have in your pocket on your person and let's quiet down. I would like to have the first public speaker. Andre Sayegh, didn‘t I see you Saturday?

Councilman Andre Sayegh: Good evening, Andre Sayegh, 384 Trenton Avenue. Comm. Taylor, I have to commend you on your Spanish. It was muy bueno. I see you've gained some skills throughout the years. Nevertheless, I also want to thank the Board of Education because you've called for a Special Joint Meeting between the City Council and the Board of Education. I feel that type of communication is critical. There are many areas that we can find common ground on, or we can identify common goals. So I'm looking forward to next week‘s meeting so we can outline our objectives, whether

Page 16 10/19/11 it's the World Language and if it's also just getting all of our children the opportunity that they deserve. Ultimately, we're here to ensure that they get to college. You said we want to graduate them from grammar school, high school, and college and we want to make sure that they‘re competitive in today‘s workforce and tomorrow‘s workforce as well. We thank Dr. Hodges who repeatedly comes to Council meetings to update us on issues that pertain to the Board of Education, but issues that pertain to the Board of Education also relate to us as well. So we have to have that constant line of communication. It shouldn‘t just be myself coming to a Board of Education meeting or Comm. Hodges or any of the other Commissioners coming to School Board meetings. Let‘s sit down and identify areas where we have common interests and that we can drive this forward as well. For example, last Tuesday the City Council unanimously adopted an ordinance calling for Delaware Avenue near the Paterson Board of Education headquarters to become a two-way street again so that we can alleviate some of the traffic on West Railway. Some of the Commissioners actually came to our City Council meeting and addressed that issue. So I do want to let you know that the Council unanimously adopted that ordinance to make Delaware Avenue a two-way street. So that's just one example where we can work together. Comm. Kerr and I on Sunday while watching his grandson play with the Cardinals and with other Paterson youngsters took a tour of Bauerle Field and I have to admit it's a marked improvement over what it once was. I thank the members of the facility committee because that‘s what our children deserve and we can identify other areas. Once I saw Bauerle Field I said we need to do something about that other stadium on the other side of town. So let‘s put our minds together. We have a collection of talented individuals on this Board of Education. We have a collection of talented individuals in the City Council. I'm looking forward to rolling up the sleeves and getting to work with you. Thank you very much.

Dr. Hani Awadallah: He told me to be shy. I don't know how difficult that is going to be. Good evening. First of all, I really came here to ask that the Board adjust the holiday for our Eid al-Adha and I found out that already Dr. Evans with your leadership – thank you very much – you are aware of the fact that Eid al-Adha is going to fall on November 7 and that will be a Monday. Otherwise it would have been on Sunday and most of our students who are Muslims, and definitely we have more than 4,000 students, would be deprived from their education that day. So thank you very much. As I understood from Ms. Berrios, you have already adopted that as the Muslim holiday on Monday, November 7. Is that correct?

Dr. Evans: Yes.

Dr. Awadallah: Thank you. Secondly, I would like to discuss what happened yesterday at Eastside High School. There was a meeting which was called on an emergency basis I must admit by Mr. McDowell regarding some of the events which are taking place at Eastside High School and outside Eastside High School. There were not very many people from the Board, but I can understand the fact that it was called in a hurry and I acknowledge Dr. Hodges and Pedro Rodriguez were there. I really hope that most of you or all of you will try to be there in our next meeting which will take place on Thursday, not this Thursday, but next Thursday on the 27th. The events taking place in there are definitely very unbecoming and what took place about two years ago is taking place again. There are some thugs from Eastside High School, from the Alternative School, and some other people from the community who are really terrorizing the community in that area around Eastside High and that definitely should not be the case. I think all of us together, the community. I've seen the community here and it was so beautiful to have all of these parents right here. I'm sure if the parents were to be aware of what is going on in there they would be joining us. Community leadership, the Board,

Page 17 10/19/11 the administration and the police, all of us should be standing together against these thugs. We cannot let them hijack the educational system and the education for the kids in Paterson. Especially around 3:00 p.m. when the dismissal of students takes place that should not be the case. We should all stand together against that. We cannot allow a few apples with all that is happening in Eastside High School and the improvement which is taking place in there. For them to hijack the education of other kids in the system is absolutely unacceptable. All of us should be standing against that. All of us should be meeting in there and our meeting as a community - Latinos, African Americans, and Arab Americans - all of us together standing in there in our meeting as ethnic groups. We should be celebrating our diversity. It should not be the case what is going on. African Americans are attacking Latinos, Dominicans or vice versa, so on and so forth.

Comm. Taylor: We'll be there.

Dr. Awadallah: We should be all there I think next Thursday around 5:00 p.m. at Eastside High School and our meeting should not be a reaction to events. This should be an ongoing thing. All the time we should be meeting periodically. We should take this not only to the high school. We should be taking it to eighth graders who are the major trouble in these high schools when they move to the high school because they think as if they are in college or whatever when they go to these high schools. So this is going to be our job. This should not be a reactionary thing. It should be an ongoing thing and we should always be ready for it.

Comm. Taylor: Thank you, Dr. Awadallah. We're going to get on that and thank you for letting us know. We don‘t want it to get out of hand, so we're going to work with you.

Dr. Awadallah: Thank you so much.

Comm. Taylor: Next Thursday at 5:00 at Eastside High School dealing with terrorism.

Comm. Cleaves: That‘s the same day as the Joint Meeting.

Comm. Taylor: I know. The Joint Meeting is at 6:30. I think I can make it there and then leave. We can show our face or we can get some more parents since it is public and they know what's happening. They can come too. But when they come you have to come in a way that‘s going to bring peace to it and not inflame it. We need to bring peace to it because something is causing the young people to do what they're doing. We need to find out what it is that's causing them to just disturb everything so children are frightened and parents are frightened. The students can't think because they‘re saying, ―I wonder if they're going to meet me outside.‖ So we need to stand together. Parents need to come out. This is a partnership we have with the city anyway, to get police officers there on the path where kids are going to school and from school. They're supposed to be around at that time. We're going to try and get more connected and more organized as far as causing a better environment for the children around there. It's not just Eastside. There are other places. So at this point we're talking about Eastside at 5:00 on October 27. There's another meeting in my other area. I'm trying to take care of the problem.

Ms. Janet Caldero: Good evening, Dr. Evans. We've met before in our private president meetings. My name is Janet Caldero and I am the PTO President of PANTHER Academy. This evening we stand before you as concerned parents. PANTHER Academy is in great need of a cafeteria. Currently the lunches are being delivered from Alexander Hamilton Academy via a rolling cart. I don't know if you know

Page 18 10/19/11 this. The process can take up to 20 minutes. Food temperatures are not being maintained to health standards. During the inclement weather, such as snowstorms, the process is even later and the food is further compromised. Pickle King, a company right behind our school, is leasing part of their building that can be used for a cafeteria. We also need office space and parking. The walls would align to the rear of our building, which makes it easier to not go over the wall. I'm requesting and we're asking that you please consider allocating funds for the leasing of this facility for a cafetorium and more office space. Having a health lunchroom and lunch environment is a bare essential for our children‘s health and nutrition and promotes academic growth, obviously. PANTHER should not do without their bare essential, which is our lunchroom and our healthy place where they can eat their food. Personally speaking, my son has come home with stomach aches and I think it has to do with the lunch. Right after lunch he has to go to the bathroom. I don't think that transporting of food from another academy, which can take 20 minutes and during inclement weather it can take longer, is a healthy thing and promotes education or a healthy environment for our children as you would agree. So we've been asking for this for a while. I've been a PTO President since the latter part of last year and I did speak to Dr. Evans regarding this issue. We would like a resolve to this as quickly as possible.

Comm. Taylor: We will look into that for you with Mr. Sapara-Grant. I understand, Ms. Caldero, that when you do a building you have to go in and inspect it and see if it meets all the requirements and whether or not it's contaminated or whatever. You're saying part of the building and we're not sure we can do part of the building. So I'm going to have Mr. Sapara-Grant work with you on this. He's the one who spoke before. It‘s through Dr. Evans because he has to give him direction. I'm not sure about the funding for it. That's something that we have to look at. Will you speak to it, please?

Dr. Evans: Actually, I've been in the building that you're referring to and it's not as simple as it sounds, but we have not finished analyzing it. Mr. Sapara-Grant will need to go in and take a look for us to make some determinations. That‘s at the beginning, but I have to tell you, and I hate to put it this way, there is a higher priority that we're focusing on right now and that's School 4 that you just heard about. We need to get them back in their building and Mr. Sapara-Grant is spending most of his time these days trying to get our kids from Dr. Frank Napier Academy back into School 4. In the meantime, this project, meaning the issues you're raising about PANTHER, is on our radar. We are planning to look at it, but I apologize. We've got to get our kids back into School 4 as a first priority before we do anything else. The conditions that they're in are far less than what we want. I recognize the food issue is a problem. We actually were talking with PCCC about some possibilities using their cafeteria again because that was the main source at one point and that door has not been closed. So we can continue to explore that as an interim measure to address the concern.

Ms. Caldero: However, the PCCC cafeteria became costly to the district. As you know, they do not give the school a discount for feeding our children. They're paying higher prices than what they would pay in regular school lunches.

Comm. Taylor: I think that we can begin to work out some kind of partnership. Let us do some more thinking about this because we're in a district where we have children that are under the radar for at-risk and their lunches are sponsored. So we need to know that kind of population. I think we need to do more exploring of this. Even though they were charging us too much the last time, they're claiming to want to have a partnership with us. Let‘s see. Put your money where your mouth is or put your mouth where your money is.

Page 19 10/19/11 Ms. Caldero: I have a rebuttal statement for that.

Dr. Evans: Before you make your rebuttal statement, let me just make it clear it is a priority, but we have lots of priorities. So we can't run out and do it tomorrow in terms of the building you're talking about. But tomorrow we can have a conversation with PCCC. We are going to address it.

Ms. Caldero: My rebuttal statement to you was we were supposed to have a partnership with PCCC whereas they were using our facilities for their classes in the evenings in exchange for their cafeteria and reasonable lunches. We kept our bargain and they have not.

Comm. Taylor: Are they still there?

Ms. Caldero: Yes, they are.

Comm. Taylor: Alright. We'll do this. Thank you. We'll do this and we‘re going to take care of this.

Ms. Caldero: In closing, this problem has been well before the flooding. Not to downplay School 4, it's very important, but so are we.

Comm. Taylor: That was my question. Thank you very much.

Ms. Rosalie Bespalko: Good evening everybody. I just want to say thank you to many people who have been donating to Napier Academy. The unselfishness that these groups have demonstrated to us is just heartwarming. I'd like to thank Irene Sterling and the Paterson Education Fund for without her we would not have all of these wonderful donations. The United Way, the Paterson Rotary, St. Luke‘s Baptist Church, CUMAC-ECHO, Hurricane Relief Fund, Eastside High School, Norman S. Weir, the Boys and Girls Club, School 10, Washington School from Chatham, New Jersey, New Roberto Clemente, the science department, the literacy department, the math department, and many other people down at 90 Delaware, the Paterson Public Library, School 28 for sharing their space with us for our PTA meetings and our after school program, and Passaic County Community College for letting us use their facility for movies once a month. We also got a grant from Lowe‘s for $51,000 and we're also going to have a playground that School 28 and School 4 are going to utilize and share. So that‘s a wonderful thing. Also, there‘s First AME Zion Church and Taub Foundation, the ministers of the city and, of course, PEF. Kelly Makino, my Full Service Community School Director, has been instrumental in obtaining these donations with Irene and I want to say thank you to them. Good night.

Ms. Tomicka McMillian: Good evening. We stand on behalf of the SET, School of Education and Training. We are the President and Vice President of the PTO. This is Ms. Alice Green.

Ms. Alice Green: Hi. Good afternoon. The reason why I'm up here is I would like to know when our PTA and STEM are going to get a bus. They get 10 tickets a month. Now it's getting cold and they promised a bid was supposed to go in November for a bus for them.

Dr. Evans: I don't recall committing a bus. I'm not sure who may have. Are you referring to purchasing a bus? I'm not sure of the context in which we're talking.

Page 20 10/19/11 Ms. Green: Transportation for the other kids coming from the other side of town. Everybody else has a bus but they don‘t have a bus. You took them from downtown so my daughter has to come from Hamilton Avenue and come all the way up here in the morning. Now it's getting cold and she has to walk to either all the way to Park Avenue to get the 712, or she has to get two buses to get here. If they're late it's a cut.

Dr. Evans: Now I understand your request. You want transportation for you child to school.

Ms. Green: Yes.

Dr. Evans: Okay. Ms. Shafer will be happy to talk with you. She‘ll work with you on that. Ms. Shafer will be happy to talk with you.

Comm. Taylor: She‘s right there.

Ms. Green: Thank you.

Comm. Taylor: You're welcome.

Ms. Erana Brewington: Hello, my name is Erana Brewington. I‘m the Treasurer for Culinary Arts. I have a concern because my daughter is in special education. This is her first year in Eastside and she‘s a little afraid because kids have been coming over there hitting on people, boys and girls. She‘s afraid. You excuse me because I'm kind of nervous. I'm about to cry at the same time. I live all the way up by Eastside Park and she walks all the way to Eastside High School. She used to take the bus when she was in grammar school and she‘s doing better than she was. She came a long way and now she‘s afraid. I don't want her to quit school or anything like that, so I was concerned about that. I'm also upset because the same people that I came here to stand up for and just to have their back they left me hanging. They didn‘t even stay here to hear us speak or anything. Another thing I was concerned about is because in the meetings they would talk about how things would go on outside the school and how the kids would hang around and cut class to go smoke a blunt or go smoke a Black and Mild or whatever. When I first joined they asked me how I could help them and I said I'm willing to help you however I can help you. I know you probably don‘t care to hear this, but I'm going to share it anyway. I'm a recovering addict, so I said maybe these kids need some counseling in school and I'm willing to help them. You're telling me that there are kids outside by the school smoking weed, cutting class, and stuff like that. That could have been my child out there. So I'm willing to help these kids if they allow me to because that could‘ve been my daughter. But thank god that she‘s not using and she‘s not one of those kids out there. But I'm concerned about her going to school and coming from school because they don't share this in the meetings how these kids come over here hitting on boys and girls after school. These teachers or nobody is going to take my child, walk her out of the school, put them in their car, and make sure she gets to my doorstep safe. Like I said, she‘s special education but she‘s doing better and I don't want her to get discouraged or get scared to go to school. It's not fair. Thank you.

Dr. Evans: I'm going to ask Dr. James and Ms. Peron to talk with you, particularly about your special education problem and the problem you're mentioning after school. Of course, they will be happy to work with you tonight, but then it sounds as if some follow- up is also necessary that they will also be arranging.

Ms. Wanda Gardner: Hi, my name is Wanda Gardner. I'm the President at Eastside and I'm at Culinary Arts. I'm just standing with her. Yesterday I had to go get my

Page 21 10/19/11 daughter because on Monday she was coming out of the door and she saw a guy with a machete in his hand, so this morning she didn‘t want to go to school. My thing is if the teachers know all the stuff that's going on, why aren‘t they letting the parents know what's going on instead of your kid coming home telling you, ―Mom, this is going on. I don't want to go back to school.‖ I'm a mother. I care and I'm going to say this as well. It takes parents to get involved to see what's going on in school. We have to. We need the Board. If you have to go out there are 2:30 to see what's going on, you look at all these kids are dying now. Eastside is one of the baddest schools there is and school hasn‘t been going on a year yet. Something has got to be done.

Comm. Taylor: You heard the speaker earlier say to come with her on Thursday for the meeting. But you're asking that parents be alerted to be around all the time so the children can have a safer way to go through.

Ms. Gardner: Yes.

Comm. Taylor: I thank you for the information and I think the teachers and staff and Dr. Evans will be together with the people there. It's as if someone in the school has passed away. Their spirit has died and we need counseling. You might have to have a whole group of people come in and talk to the whole school.

Ms. Gardner: Excuse me, Ms. Taylor. This is way before the kid passed away.

Comm. Taylor: I don‘t mean a real death. I mean a spiritual death of the kids in the school. They're alive, but they're not well and somebody has to counsel them. But Dr. Evans I think will try and take care of this.

Dr. Evans: Yes.

Ms. Gardner: Thank you.

Comm. Taylor: We have your name from the Eastside Culinary Arts. Mr. McDowell should make sure that your concerns are taken care of.

Ms. Waheedah Muhammad: With god‘s name, good evening.

Comm. Hodges: We're letting her speak, Madam Chair?

Ms. Muhammad: I came by today for two reasons. One is that I think last week in the paper it was talking about the Gear-Up Program here in the City of Paterson. I said to my granddaughter, who is one of those students in the Gear-Up Program, ―What would you say to the Board of Education if you had the opportunity to tell them about the Gear- Up Program?‖ She really does seem to love it, so I'm giving you her words because she wrote out two paragraphs to let you know how she feels about the Gear-UP program. It says: ―I know you have heard about our amazing program called Gear-Up. For you to be in Gear-Up you have to start from the sixth grade and work your way up to high school. I am a member of the Gear-Up program. I have great fun there. The days I go to Gear-Up are on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 3:00 p.m. to 5:15. During these hours and days we do homework. Then we do math, reading, and writing, and keep up with our school. Gear-Up is not a program to go to if you want to fool around. We enjoy learning many things and at the end we get a little rest. As for me, Gear-Up is a very educational an interesting program. If you attend the program from sixth grade to your senior year in high school Gear-Up will pay for your college education if it's in New Jersey. They also have a summer program you can go to in the summer. I attended it

Page 22 10/19/11 this summer. We had a ball. Towards the end of the program we got to go to Dorney Park and we got a check. Hopefully a lot more students will join this program. If they do, they will have a wonderful time. I hope you enjoyed my brief message about the Gear-Up program.‖ This is Ms. Renaya Shipley from School 2. Her great Principal Ms. Van Liew is such a sweetheart and we love her dearly. My second mission for being here this evening is to really thank the Board of Education on behalf of the Grandparent‘s Relative Care Resource Center, Dr. Jessie Dixon who couldn‘t be here this evening, to say to you what a tremendous time we had at our Grandparents Empowerment Conference held at International High School. We want to give special thanks to Mr. Kemper McDowell, the guidance department, Mr. Smith, a special thanks to Ms. Joanne Williams who worked so hard and took all of our pain and our frustrations at times with a smile. We thank you so much Joanne and for all of your help. The grandparents really enjoyed this conference tremendously and we learned so much. So I just want you to know when you're doing conferences please continue to involve the grandparents who have now found ourselves being parents all over again. Thank you and god bless.

Ms. Irene Sterling: Good evening. Two things I want to talk about tonight. As a member of the Advisory Board of the Community Schools Initiative, I've had a wonderful time working with Tobi and all of the people involved and I want to second Ms. Taylor‘s holding up of the principals as key roles in this initiative. In fact, as we did the assessment of which schools would be chosen in the two cohorts, the role of the principal, who that principal was, and their willingness to taken on this job in this new way of operating was absolutely critical. It is in fact one of the reasons why some schools that I know many of you would like to have be Community Schools have a barrier. If the principal is not demonstrating high-quality leadership and isn't willing to make the shift, we can‘t afford to put resources in that place. So I encourage you to keep looking at the role of the principal in our Full Service Community Schools because that is probably the most important person in the team. Secondly, I want to commend you for pursuing the Commissioner with regard to the QSAC scores. It is unconscionable that we have a law which lays out how we are to get back to local control, it was passed by the legislature, the State Board passed 6A regulations that also have the effect of law, and now the Commissioner is saying, ―I don't care what the law is. You're not getting you schools back.‖ So to that point, if you need help with the court filing costs, please see the Education Fund. We have filed amicus before in your behalf when the Board could not do that around the facilities issues and we would be more than happy to work with you on the filing costs for this. Don‘t let that stand in your way or give you a moment‘s worry.

Comm. Taylor: Thank you.

Comm. Hodges: We‘ll be there tomorrow.

Ms. Sterling: You know where to find me.

Mr. Bilal Hakeem Kemp: Good evening. I only heard Dr. Hodges. I think I'll repeat it again. Good evening. That‘s much better. My name is Bilal Hakeem Kemp. The Department of Education, that is the United States Department of Education, gave me a call yesterday, to my surprise, thanking me for a letter that I sent to them regarding some educational concerns and assured me that if I could not get timely answers that they would see to it. I just wanted to put that on the record. The issue of community liaisons, this is a message to them. Most of them have left. They have a mandate and we expect all of them to step up in ways that they haven't to get parents involved. The reason why I mention that is because I was curious to know whether or not we have

Page 23 10/19/11 established a Title I District-Wide Advisory Council. That's a question I would like to know. If so, who is the chairperson and who are the members because it's the responsibility of the Parent Liaisons to organize the parents. I am in 100% agreement with Comm. Hodges as he continues to clamor for the need for parental involvement. Those Parent Community Liaisons who are paid out of that Title I budget have to perform. For too long many of them have been half-stepping and I'm just here to say as a parent and as an advocate in education in working with some educational groups here in the district, we're going to be monitoring their activity and making sure that they're not just being errand boys and errand girls but doing their job. So we praise those that go beyond the call of duty. I'd just like to digress a minute and ask Ms. Zakia Harrison. She didn't even know, but I would like for her to come here one minute because I want to just thank her, not for doing her job, but for going beyond. I'm almost ready to cry. She‘s gone beyond the call of duty in terms of her commitment at School 21, not only to meet past tests scores. Dr. Hodges, I'm with you so much on these things that you talk about. Ms. Harrison, I thank her for her leadership there and we're there to work and help her. We‘ll be here involved at these meetings. I want to just thank you publicly because some people didn‘t find a need to appreciate her goodness and her commitment.

Ms. Zakia Harrison: I'm honored. I do it because I love the children. You know that already.

Mr. Hakeem Kemp: Yes. The other thing I wanted to just say briefly is that someone mentioned about the violence. Yesterday at School 21, I stop over at the school on a regular basis because I have four of my siblings and 10 of my nieces and nephews there. The children were inside a pizzeria across the street standing on top of the chairs and just carrying on. So as an adult I told them, ―What are you doing? Calm down. Sit down.‖ They sat down and one began to curse. So I asked, ―Who cursed?‖ I walked around and they all ran out. This is after school had been out. It's maybe 3:15 or 3:20. I was in there having a conversation with Ms. Harrison and she observed this as well. When I finished my conversation with her I walked towards Madison Avenue to catch a bus and someone threw a bottle. They threw a bottle in the presence of adults, right outside the school. When I turned and asked a coach that was there who did it, he was gesturing to a student who had threw the bottle. I mention that to say in the context of security, and please forgive me for indulging you here, I do think that the security people need a better understanding of what their role is in the district outside of the abstract definition that many of them function from. Even going back to the question that was asked earlier regarding supporting our State Appointed Superintendent, we need a yardstick so that parents can evaluate correctly so they can be there for them. But I did want that issue looked into because if I had found that child, I told the security guard that I wanted to find out who this child‘s parent was that cursed. I do have his picture because I would like to meet with the parents. And yes, parents must be involved and I commission those Parent Liaisons if they're not going to do their job in terms of organizing parents, get out of the way. There are a plethora of things that I‘d like to say, but I want to give this to you. I'll put it in writing because we don‘t have the time. There are many educational issues I'd like to bring, but I'd like to give this to each and every one of you. Next Saturday a Nationally Certified School Psychologist will be here in the district. As I mentioned to someone before, often we come out to the events that you sponsor, but you don‘t come to the ones that we sponsor. We hope that you can come out and engage Dr. Johnson, a direct descendant of Fredrick Douglas.

Ms. Magda Ludena: Good evening, my name is Magda Ludena. As we prepare our students to compete in an increasingly global economy foreign language programs are an important key that open the door to opportunities never before imagined.

Page 24 10/19/11 Additionally, many studies have shown that children are more receptive to learning a foreign language at a younger age rather than older ones. That's why it's so important to ensure that these programs are established at the elementary educational levels. The World Language teachers want to express our sincere appreciation to the Commissioners who are supporting the highest education to our students. Thank you, Mr. Simmons. Thank you, Mr. Rodriguez. Thank you, Mr. Kerr. Thank you, Mr. Mendez. Thank you, Mr. Irving. Thank you, Ms. Guzman. Thank you very much because the benefit is for our students. Thank you so much.

Mr. Charles Ferrer: Good evening, Charles Ferrer. I'm going to start off with this question. I'd like to know the overall cost of this Innovation Zone program that‘s coming into this district. If someone could get those figures to me as soon as possible I'd appreciate that. I'm going to say this in reference. I was a little disappointed when I found out that the Board voted not to venture into this program, but Dr. Evans you chose to veto. I'm going to say this. Many of the Board members that sit up on this Board know the lay of the land, know the games that the state plays, and you're new, Dr. Evans. The state is playing games. They're putting you into a predicament to pilot a program that's probably not going to be very good for Paterson. But that's their way of throwing weight around. They're ignoring giving this Board back the power that they're entitled to by law because that would put them into a position I believe to have some say-so in the position of the Superintendent, of which since they changed certain guidelines they probably have somebody in mind that they want to bring in that probably just has a B.A. and a business degree. They don‘t want the Board to be able to stop that. Now, the law says that you're entitled, but they're not giving. So what would happen if this district didn‘t send the pension money that was just increased by law…(end of tape) (Beginning of new tape)…by law if you ignore the law I guarantee you they would cut all the health benefits of all the people that are covered under it, if you broke that law. Isn't it funny that the state can continually break laws that they put into place? But when we try to do it they‘ll slap us in the face with it. I'd also like to know, because I heard at the NJQSAC meeting that there's a group of jobs that are supposed to come out of this Innovation Zone program, if those job descriptions have been posted on the district website yet. I commend the Board for putting together this resolution. As I said, document, put it in writing. Maybe you need to send a copy of that resolution to the Federal Department of Education so that maybe they can ask the state why they are reneging on your own laws. Enough is enough. We know the games that they're playing. Dr. Evans, you want the Board to go on some retreat or some workshop to Texas where you become a cohesive unit. This was a way of showing a tight unit. Nine members said no, nine heads. They say two heads are better than one. So what's the position of nine? The only reason why you probably vetoed it is because of the pressures that you're probably going to get from the state. Let us worry about those pressures. We dealt with the state before. There are some minds up here that know these games. Respect those minds. They‘ll benefit you in the long run. Thank you.

Mr. Muhammad Abdullah: Good evening. I came tonight particularly because my daughter is one of those who were elected to be a home school council person. That was my primary reason for coming. Years ago I attended quite a few Board of Education meetings and it seems as though it doesn‘t do much good because as was mentioned there are a lot of games played. I didn‘t have this in mind when I came here, but I think I'll take this opportunity now. There are a lot of games played and the games are not played fair. The state, the Board, and those in authority hold all the control. Parents have no control. Children have no control. All we have is please. My second concern is that I was involved as a PTA or home school council at School 13 which eight of my children attended. Mr. Gibson was the principal at that time. It was

Page 25 10/19/11 mentioned here about supporting your principals. For many years I wondered why the Board hadn‘t considered naming School 13 after Mr. Gibson because he certainly lifted that school up and held it up all the years he was there and the year he passed I believe it was in first place. So I wanted to ask if the Board could consider giving School 13 the name to honor Mr. Gibson and what is the process. There was a question asked by Mr. Hakeem regarding the district council. I was hoping we would get a response. I didn‘t hear a response on that, the Title I Advisory Council. The thought came to my mind regarding the district being turned over to local control and I remember when it went to state control too long ago. So I thought what would happen if the parents, who we always talk about parental involvement, would request to turn the control back over to the district and if they would take their children out of school and keep them out of school to demonstrate their concern. I know there is a lot of game playing that goes on. I don‘t play games. I like to be straight. But I definitely would become active in seeing that those things come about. So on that question of the advisory council, could that be answered?

Comm. Taylor: Thank you. We will.

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

Dr. Evans: I want to respond to two of the questions. First, I‘d like to call Ms. Brenda Patterson to respond to the question associated with the Title I Advisory Council.

Ms. Brenda Patterson: Good evening, Commissioners and parents. One of the things that we did as we thought about how to best focus our efforts around Title I, all schools now are Title I funded and they are completely school-wide. So what we've done to support this effort is to make sure that the parents that you saw here this evening are indeed the advisors that will be considered the Title I Advisory Council. Mr. McDowell is working with them. Last year the Superintendent met with all of the PTA/PTO members monthly and we gave them specific trainings. They actually went to Washington, DC and to Trenton. They actually had opportunities to meet with Board members in terms of how to conduct their roles and responsibilities. We also talked about fiscal training and how they needed to develop plans at the school level which we could then monitor and assist with. So that all of us are clear about that we also made sure that the Title I funding has been distributed to each school that would assist the parents. So the parents actually have a segment of Title I funds that they every year can plan their activities around so that they can have not only school-based functions, they also meet as cohorts and they decide which particular trainings they want. They think about the things that best affect the academics in their schools as well as the things the parents need in their schools.

Comm. Taylor: Ms. Patterson, could you make a folder of all the listings that you say are involved with the Title I Advisory group?

Ms. Patterson: Absolutely.

Comm. Taylor: You're saying that it's the parent organizations along with their liaison persons and Mr. McDowell?

Dr. Evans: It's actually the presidents of each of the Council that I've met with monthly and reviewed various pieces of information and have heard from them. The group did meet every month. We have yet to get into a cycle with me meeting with them because

Page 26 10/19/11 of startup issues associated with the flood and a number of other things, but we're going to engage in that same cycle this year. Each school was represented in that group.

Comm. Taylor: I would like that because you're meeting with the president that that kind of information be put together so it's available to all parents. The president, the executive body, and also all the members of every parent organization have that information. They don‘t know that they have a budget. Only the presidents know.

Ms. Patterson: It was our empowerment of them and that's why we trained them last year.

Comm. Taylor: I understand what you're saying, Ms. Patterson. But if I'm trying to work out parent organizations and trying to keep the bodies flowing year after year after year I think more than just the executive group needs to know how it is put together, what is required, is there a budget, who gives you the mandates to have this in the first place, how did it come to be, and all that historical information. But other parents need to know it, a handbook or a handout or whatever to just list the components of it.

Ms. Patterson: We can clearly do that. The principals do work also with the parents to have meetings at the sites.

Comm. Taylor: A lot of my parents when I talk to them have no idea. They don‘t have a clue. Do you understand what I'm saying? I'd like that out. Is Ms. Corallo still here? This is the kind of thing and I think I needed to send that out to the bulletin that the Board is making, some information about Title I. I think that we can work on that for parents. That is the question. I think Dr. Evans has gotten you to tell us a little bit more about it, so we can get that and get it to every school organization and get them. I know the principal has so much to do. They're burdened. So I think with the parents now the parents can spread the word. If you want to become involved in this, this is what you have to do. Do you want to go to Trenton? This is what you have to do. Do you want to talk to the state and federal government? This is what you have to do. That‘s how we teach people so they can do it. If somebody doesn‘t want to be president anymore or their term has run out, a new person can take over and then they know how to do it and what they're responsible for. They don‘t have to start from scratch. It's like a tool of encouragement. That's all I'm asking for.

Ms. Patterson: Okay. Are there any other questions?

Dr. Evans: The second item I wanted to briefly respond to was to the request to rename School 13. There is a process that we need to engage in to consider renaming a school. We will go and reactivate that process and make a determination. I have not been afforded the luxury yet of being a part of naming a new school in the district since the two new schools that we were supposed to get we still don‘t have and at some point hopefully we will. But we will go back and engage that process and give you some feedback once we get that going.

BOARD COMMENTS

Comm. Cleaves: I'd like to say to Mr. McDowell and the Family Community Engagement Committee and his team that the function last Saturday was awesome. I was very honored to be there in the midst of the students and the parents. Parents, thank you for coming out. It was a wonderful turnout. Mr. McDowell, you and your team did a yeoman‘s job and I commend you for it. There was supposed to be an attendance taken for each school that participated. We need to get that information, Comm.

Page 27 10/19/11 Guzman and myself, as to who had the highest number of participants so that Comm. Cleaves, Comm. Guzman, Comm. Irving, and Comm. Mendez can get the awards.

Comm. Taylor: School 12.

Comm. Cleaves: So congratulations to School 12. Mr. McDowell said it wasn‘t. Get us the information as soon as you can so that the awardees can get what's due to them. Don‘t forget the preschool information as well for Comm. Guzman and myself. I'd like to say last Thursday and Friday and this past Monday Comm. Mendez and myself visited all of the high schools here in the district and we did a voter registration talk. We went in and we talked to the seniors of every high school regarding the importance of registering to vote. We'd like to say to those students thank you for your participation. Thank you for the questions. Thank you for registering to vote. We appreciate your efforts. As I stated to the seniors that I spoke to, if there's anything that you need from Comm. Cleaves, please let me know. I left my business cards with them. They were excited. I was excited. This was my first venture out as a Commissioner. So I was very excited and I'm very pleased to say that between Comm. Mendez and myself, we registered approximately 300 students here in the district.

Comm. Taylor: Now we have to get them out to vote.

Comm. Cleaves: So students, it's time to rock the vote. Get out and vote. It is your right. As I said to you, it is your right. Also I'd like to say that on November 12th Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority Incorporated, Pi Psi Omega Chapter, which is based out of here in Passaic County out of Paterson, will be having a harvest of hope honoring men in education. The honorees that they have chosen from the Paterson district are Shelton Prescott, Clifton Jerry Thompson III, Stanley Sumter, David Kozart, Marc Medley, Gerald Gleason, Dale Brown, and Nigel Campbell. Again, that is on November 12th from 1:00 to 5:00 at the Brownstone. They will be honoring men in education and if you would like tickets please contact Shakira Dickerson at 973-460-5212.

Comm. Irving: Who's your MC for that event?

Comm. Cleaves: Excuse me. The MC for the afternoon is none other than Comm. Irving. Thank you, Madam Chair.

Comm. Kerr: Is he a frat brother?

Comm. Hodges: That‘s shameless, absolutely shameless.

Comm. Guzman: At this time, I'm going to be a little brief. There are a lot of topics of discussion, but I want to first congratulate all the parent leaders that were here this evening and that were sworn in by Comm. Taylor with such enthusiasm bringing in friendship and friendly environment to our schools. I want to comment all those parents for taking up the task and I look forward to seeing many more parents because we have a lot of schools that were not in attendance today that should be involved. I'm glad to see that we have some of our preschools as an initiative that‘s being started with Mr. Kemper McDowell. It's something new to the district. Our preschools are not involved as they should and we say that education begins at home. Early childhood education is the importance so we need to start with our preschools and those parents to start getting involved at an early stage so that they can be accustomed throughout the child‘s school years to actually be participating in their children‘s education. So I commend each and every one of them. Mr. McDowell, I saw pictures of the events and they looked awesome. Unfortunately, I couldn‘t attend. I did the call the Board of Education

Page 28 10/19/11 of Thursday that I was not feeling well. I was hospitalized Friday through Sunday so I couldn‘t attend the conference. But I look forward to seeing much more pictures. I did see a few and Comm. Cleaves and myself have committed ourselves to providing a pizza party to the preschool with the most parents involved. Our word still stands. The $500 taken in another direction to Comm. Mendez and Comm. Irving will be handling that. We‘re just making sure that they keep their word. It‘s $500, no less. They can do more, but no less. To our World Language teachers, you‘re always here and always showing the interest and the importance to have you in our schools. I mentioned once before and many times before the importance of our students learning many different languages whether it be Spanish, French, Portuguese, or Italian. It's important because it serves as a double engineer for each student. Myself being bilingual with English and Spanish I know I have many advantages to provide services and to be of help to many people who speak English and to those people who speak Spanish. So I commend you and I'm here to support you in anything that I can possible. In closing, to Eastside High School, this is actually an issue that‘s getting under my skin. Dr. Awadallah came here and he spoke about the violence that's occurring. It's not happening inside the school. I want to make that clear. It is happening outside your school. I had three days in a row last week where I had students and people from the community get injured right in front of my house. I live one block away from Eastside High School and the fights just end up right in front of my house. I tell you, they're bringing out knives, machetes, and they're going through the backyards of people looking into the garbage cans finding bottles and actually going after our children. It happened three days in a row last week and this has been happening since the first day of school. The very first day of school I made a call to the district office and the Superintendent‘s office to let them know about a fight and when they tried contacting the school the school had absolutely no idea what was going on. They weren‘t aware of what was happening. But I was telling them it was happening right in front of my face because I saw it with these two eyes and I live in the area. So it is an issue that we need to address.

Comm. Taylor: Did you call the police?

Comm. Guzman: Yes.

Comm. Taylor: Did they come?

Comm. Guzman: Yes, they did. The police did come. They dispersed everybody. Of course, the kids started running like always. Last week, three days in a row I had to actually call the police because they were getting into people‘s homes trying to run. They were actually getting into people‘s porches trying not to get hurt.

Comm. Taylor: Alright. I think that deserves a workshop of some kind, Ms. Guzman, and more discussion. You should be with Dr. Awadallah next week and everyday. You are very near the area so you do see a lot of things going on. I live near the 10th Avenue section, so I know what you're talking about, the streaming of children coming. They leave the building and then they decide to fight a block away. Or somebody on the street will see them, they don‘t go to school, and they get entangled with those particular people, people that are dropped out.

Comm. Guzman: Then the issue is we have children from all the other surrounding schools walking at the same exact time. So that's the problem.

Comm. Taylor: Yes, but you never know who it is.

Page 29 10/19/11 Comm. Hodges: Actually, I have a number of issues. I'm going to try to go through them rather quickly. The food issue at PANTHER, this has been discussed a number of times and I really want to make it very clear there are a number of issues that are wrapped up in this problem. The cost of the food was one issue. There's a price differential with the college. But there's also the issue of the behavior of the students on the campus. We don‘t want to gloss over that. Our students have not been at their best and neither has the staff that‘s supposed to monitor them while they're over there. So we need to address that.

Comm. Taylor: The whole picture.

Comm. Hodges: Yes, the entire picture, so that we can move forward on that issue. The original premise, as you know, was to acclimatize students to the college environment. That was the premise of the building, to have them access the gym, the library, and the cafeteria so they would be in a college environment. But the college won't tolerate the behaviors that our children unfortunately have exhibited in the past. So we need to address that. Yesterday at Eastside High School there were hearings from the Joint Committee on Public Schools on the QSAC assessment process. This is a state legislature. They were looking to discuss potential changes in the QSAC law and what could be done to make this a more effective and more efficient and more reflective process. I guess I gave the last testimony and unfortunately the only testimony from Paterson. They brought in people from across the state and this unfortunately was not publicized locally.

Comm. Taylor: It never is.

Comm. Hodges: They put it at Eastside High School so the community could come in and participate, but unfortunately because of the Joint Committee‘s decision there was not the kind of publicity that we would have hoped on the parts of the parents. It's not the school district, but the Joint Committee. But some of the suggestions we discussed was the Board being charged or blamed for failures in the district that we are expressly prohibited from involving ourselves in, but we still get the responsibility. So if there is a low test score, for instance, in personnel we are expressly prohibited from being involved in personnel. But when you have personnel problems we still get the points taken away from us. The state takes no responsibility for its supervisory failures. They admit that there are problems that they‘re in charge of directly, but by statute the responsibility or the blame goes to the Board of Education. In fact, there are no remedies that this Board can implement that are superior to what the Department of Education and its Commissioner can impose. We cannot impose. We can complain, carp, yell, scream, and beg, but they at the Department of Education can impose remedies. In 20 years that has not happened. We asked for the sporadic changes in the requirements to stop the unequal imposition of the law. There are other school districts that are performing lower than we are in many categories. They are not in state takeover conditions. There are people who will have lower test scores than Newark in curriculum. They're not in state takeover. Why? We don‘t know. But the large urban centers, of course, remain under state control. Start all districts at ground zero. If you're going to change QSAC, start all districts at ground zero, which means nobody‘s in state takeover. We're all back where we were and we go from there once you develop an adequate assessment instrument. I'll go through the rest of them, World Languages. Dr. Evans, is that a QSAC measured program?

Dr. Evans: It's a T&E, Thorough & Efficient, issue, which is associated with QSAC.

Page 30 10/19/11 Comm. Hodges: So in other words, when we fail to provide World Language we are not living up to our Thorough & Efficient responsibilities.

Dr. Evans: Correct.

Comm. Hodges: As I'm sure you know, that has to be addressed.

Dr. Evans: It is being addressed.

Comm. Hodges: Okay. We need to have some sort of timetable established. I guess the curriculum committee, through the chair, would like to see that timetable rolled out, when it's going to happen, what's going to be taking place, and where in the future, at you're leisure. I know you have nothing else to do. Next to last, the violence at Eastside High School. This is not new, sadly. This has been going on for 40 years in this community off and on. I'm being told it's prominent in the beginning just about every school year. About three or four years ago we developed the multicultural ethnic task force just because we had this kind of problem over at Eastside. I don't remember who the combatants were. It was at Kennedy. We actually had a day off when we went and spoke to the students at Kennedy. We brought in people from the community to talk to them and things actually began to subside after that. So this is not a new situation, but I am very concerned about the use of weaponry, which is new. This is carried out on the streets very close to the school. You must understand there are elementary school students in the area. You have Old Roberto Clemente, New Roberto Clemente is in the area, School 15, and School 11. This is a potentially dangerous situation, particularly if they graduate from machete and knives to guns. So we're going to have to get on top of this issue as soon as we possibly can. Lastly, I want to thank Bilal Hakeem for his comments and I also want to thank Irene Sterling and the PEF for their gracious contributions to this Board‘s efforts to regain local control. We will be reaching out to you with all due speed. Thank you very much, Madam President.

Comm. Irving: What I first want to do is start with one of the comments Dr. Hodges concluded with and it has to do with World Language. I just want to echo what Dr. Hodges said, that the Board in the interest of making sure we're compliant with providing a Thorough & Efficient education receive some type of game plan that we can share with the folks who have been here for the last four meetings or so. I don't know if anybody else noticed, but I believe you folks aren‘t going anywhere until you get an answer, and rightfully so. So I think that the members of our community who have been here at every single meeting and the members of the Board deserve a report and a plan for how we will phase back World Language. Dr. Evans, I know you support World Language. Your administration does. The situation you were put into you had to make some tough choices. But now we have a lot more resources and a lot more support. New initiatives are popping up left and right and there is no reason why the recreation of our World Language programs in our schools can't be one of them. I think it's absolutely important that all children in our city recognize and understand that we are not the only one of our kind in the world. One of the best ways to explore cultures is to learn the language of different cultures. Not just languages that we may know here, maybe languages that are based in Africa or germane to Africa, or languages that are based and germane to Asia, etc, really looking at World Language for what it is. With that said, I want to commend Kemper McDowell and the Parent Resource Center for the job they did last week at the Parent Engagement Conference. ―Wow‖ is probably the best word to use. I don't think quite honestly that I personally expected that many folks and I'm sure that there were folks who even worked the event that didn‘t expect that. But I think that's the by-product of putting a lot of energy and making people aware. Now we have to figure out how best we fine-tune that program so that people really do

Page 31 10/19/11 get served at the optimal level that we want. But I want to just make sure that we truly acknowledge the fact that parents, as Ms. Taylor said, showed up. They came out and they‘re willing to. Clearly that process worked. I want to make sure that we don't distract or take away from the process it took to get there because that is the most I've ever seen parents at any venue that we've ever invited them to in my life. I went to the Paterson Public School System and as an adult now I can tell you I've never seen anything like that. So how do we continue to bring those folks in but make sure we captivate that audience so that we can give them the information that we'd like them to have and we continue to serve them, and most importantly give their children the experience that really matters? With that said, just with regard to NJQSAC, I am absolutely very proud of this Board for the stance that collectively we‘ve all taken. I've been clamoring since the day I got on this Board about using legal action to take back local control. I have not shied away from it since the day I got here and I will not because I believe that if we're going to get local control back, it's not going to come willingly. We've got to be willing to fight and get down and dirty and put ourselves out here and put some people on the front street to get what we need. Let me just say this and I'll conclude, Madam Chair. These are the easy times. The tough times are coming. There will be points and times for many of us as elected officials who may want to move on and do other things. I absolutely acknowledge that, but we've got to do what we have to do for our kids. I hope that we keep that foremost and cardinal as we move ourselves forward. We are a great city. We have a great future. But that can only happen if the nine of us stay committed and connected to seeing this process through. I know we talked about partial local control, but to me partial is not good enough. The state has no right to be here. They have no ground to be here. They have failed to do their job for the last 20 years. I don't understand how we can even request or ask somebody for a partial anything. They can't do a good full job. How can we expect them to get back a partial piece of something they don't have? With that said, that concludes my comments.

Comm. Mendez: I would like to start with the registration campaign that we had conducted last week. Comm. Cleaves and myself had the opportunity to visit some of the high schools in the area and as you just heard we registered over 300 new young students that are over 18 and now they are involved in the process on how to elect our elected officials. I'm extremely happy because of that. Also, I would like to congratulate Kemper and the Parent Resource Center for that great event that they conducted last week at Center City Mall. I was extremely impressed to see over 500 parents with their children. I had the opportunity to meet a lot of the parents and to talk to therm. I saw Comm. Rodriguez and Comm. Irving as well there. It was a great day but we have to continue doing this. We have to bring parents into the school system. We need to let them know that we cannot do it alone. We need them helping us in order to move our education forward to the next level. That‘s extremely important. The next topic that I would like to talk about is Eastside High School. I'm very upset with what happened at Eastside High School and I believe that problem has to be corrected immediately. We have to start talking about that. Yesterday I received a call from one of the residents from Eastside because all the students that he saw around 10:00 outside, all the young folks from the area were sitting on top of the cars and making noise. It's a disaster and you don't see one police officer outside Eastside High School. That's unacceptable for our residents and for our kids. Safety has to be the number one priority for our children. I have to acknowledge the outstanding job that the staff from Eastside High School and Mr. Moody are doing inside. We're making so much progress. But guess what? When the kids go outside at 3:00 there are no police officers or anybody who can help the children or protect the children. There is a fight everyday at Eastside High School and now it's totally different. As you hear Comm. Guzman, we're talking about weapons. We see our children with weapons fighting. We have to stop this now. I know that

Page 32 10/19/11 we're going to have a meeting with the city next week and safety in our schools has to be one of the number one topics, especially at Eastside High School and Kennedy High School. With that being said, I would like to inform my community that next month I'm going to start a campaign. The name of the campaign is Stop the Violence. Every year I do a gang awareness forum in the community, but I'm planning to do a whole campaign across the district. I'm putting this together in November. It's going to be my first forum. I will let the community know where we're going to have the first event. Nevertheless, World Language, I congratulate your team for your great effort that you guys are doing. Keep pushing hard. We support you. We need you back in the classroom. We are getting the results. There's no excuse in order for you not to be back in classroom. Keep fighting.

Comm. Kerr: Sitting here listening to my fellow Commissioners I'm reminded of where we were just a couple of years ago. I've seen the growth and maturity of this Board and I'm so pleased. Madam Chair, I just need to extend a particular congratulation to you and the members of this Board for passing the resolution tonight regarding our intent as a Board to pursue legal remedies to the QSAC situation that we have faced over these many years. I believe this is vitally important to show the State Department that it's not just giving us what we deserve, but giving us the right to administer the affairs of this district. We have met all the criteria in governance. That's the only area that this Board has a say-so in. We have demonstrated credibility test after test. Therefore, I believe we should have the right to govern ourselves in that area. Madam Chair, I was at the Community and Family Engagement Conference this past Saturday. I must say it was a very active and energetic event. It was energetic to the point that maybe there was just too much energy in the room. At one point we were at the anti-bullying workshop conducted by Mr. Andre McCollum and he had to be shouting just to get the message out. I think the conference was great, but I believe the workshops are very important and therefore we should always seek to have the conference in a location where the workshops are not interfered with because of the noise and distraction. Regarding the presentation tonight, I must say I'm very pleased. I hate to say Tobi, but your last name gives me a problem and I don't want to carve it up tonight. So forgive me for calling you Tobi. But the information that you presented to us tonight is fantastic. However, the problem that this district faces is not one of lack of information. The problem that we have is the follow-through. We've always presented nice programs, but we do not follow through to make sure that the programs materialize in the way that they should. But I'm confident in you and I trust that we will tie all the ends up and make sure that this becomes real because it's truly an important thing. I'm a proponent of Full Community Schools and this happens probably about 10 years ago when I was invited by the PEF to visit a community school in the Bronx. I saw the operation there. They had clinics inside the school. It blew my mind. It was such a fantastic experience. I'm sure that it's your mission to bring that sort of thing here in Paterson. I also had a discussion last Thursday with Dr. Carol Fredericks and she outlined for me and Comm. Mendez what the medical component of that will be at School 25. I tell you, if all of that works well, we will be really doing something fantastic in this district. So I want to commend you on what you're doing. Also, I want to commend Comm. Simmons. About two weeks ago he had a response to the Girls Leadership Summit at International High School. I could not make it, but it was said back to me that it was a very wonderful conference. So I want to commend my fellow Board member, Comm. Simmons, for his work in this area. I also want to commend these wonderful people who come here meeting after meeting supporting World Language. I believe World Language is positive, but more so I believe your commitment to coming here month after month to make the point that this is important, that is what is more important to me than just coming here and making one statement and you're lost after that. You are here every month and truly I believe it's important. I would like to speak two languages just like

Page 33 10/19/11 Comm. Mendez. I want to speak more than two. So it's important. It makes us all more marketable and we are more enriched when we are able to communicate in more than one language. So I want to thank you for coming and please don‘t stop coming. This is a part of the democratic process and this is part of the way in which you are able to get some of the things done that you want to get done. So I thank you very much. Lastly, Dr. Evans, regarding the PANTHER Academy, I'm only learning tonight that the agreement that we had with Passaic County Community College to use their cafeteria is not active. I knew that was part of the arrangement. So when did this break down? You can talk to me after, but I just need to know when it got broken. Madam President, thank you very much.

Comm. Rodriguez: I first want to start by congratulating the Community and Family Engagement event, actually congratulating Kemper McDowell, the whole department, and volunteers and employees that participated in this event. I just have one complaint to Kemper. There was an adult playing in the race car and he never gave it away. I didn‘t get an opportunity to play and I had a written complaint by Pedrito that he didn‘t get an opportunity to play. So the adults should move on and let the kids play when they have that type of event in that mall. Now, talking about security issues on a more serious note, people should realize what is going on. Recently, 125 police officers were laid off from the administration of the city. The crossing guards are a responsibility of the City of Paterson, not of the Board of Education. But what happened was that the administration of the city decided to cut many of the crossing guards, people that make $36 a day, and put police officers as crossing guards, people that make $100,000 a year, something that just doesn‘t make sense. Many of them make $100,000 or more. So they prefer to cut the little guy and put to cross our kids those that make a lot of money and it results in a problem. At 3:00 p.m. when everybody is going out and you try to call the police, the police cannot respond because they are crossing the kids. It's a royal rumble out there and there's nobody to protect the streets of Paterson. That is part of the problem that we currently have in the City of Paterson. So you cut the little guy and let the people that are supposed to be preventing the crimes crossing kids at a much higher price. It doesn‘t make sense. That is part of the problem. The second part of this, and I want to talk to the parents and adults out there…(end of tape) (Beginning of new tape)…the language, especially when we are talking in front of our children and other children. Some people speak in a manner that the children listen to that and start repeating the same things that you are saying. I know another one of my colleagues will talk about how parents should moderate their language to avoid the conflicts that are happening between different races in the City of Paterson. We should get to the point where the different races that we have and ethnic groups, we're different, but we should start embracing our differences, learn from each other‘s cultures, and work together. That is the diversity that we have in Paterson. It‘s not something that we are taking advantage of and it is a shame. On a totally different subject, there's a resolution today to vote on a revised budget. With that, I want to refer to the World Language. One of the things that I would like to see when we have this discussion, Dr. Evans, is how much we are allocating at least to return World Language to our middle school. It is a revised budget that we can start reallocating some money in different areas. That's one part of it and one of the things that I would like to see. The other is for the Gifted & Talented programs. I want to see if we are allocating monies to train teachers on how to be Gifted & Talented teachers so we can train them this year and next year we can roll the program in every single one of our schools. Those are two things that I would like to discuss. Finally, I'm working with the young leaders of Paterson and several community organizations on an initiative that is called Count on Me. We're going to be launching this initiative on October 29th in the Paterson Museum at 6:30 p.m. Basically, what we're going to be doing is we're going to be going out to the community and asking them what their needs are. For example, how many of

Page 34 10/19/11 our community members are lacking health insurance? How many of our community members would like to be proficient in computers? How many of our community members would like to learn English? Then we're going to gather all that information and put it in different categories and serve as a bridge between sources of those programs and the people that are in need. That‘s a part of that Count on Me. The second one is we're going to roll a series of videos in which we're going to try to put a positive spin on the image that we are projecting of Paterson. It's not a secret that when you say outside of Paterson that you're from Paterson people look at you in a different way and that's something that needs to change. When I go to New York and other cities of New Jersey and they see that I'm from Paterson people look at me in a different way. Many of the media when they show some of the things that are real, that are happening in Paterson, it doesn‘t paint the whole picture. There are many things that are happening in Paterson that don‘t make the paper. We want to show some of those things.

Comm. Taylor: Good things.

Comm. Rodriguez: Good things, yes. So we want to paint that part of the picture and show the rest of the world, if not to the rest of New Jersey and the United States that the best resource that we have in Paterson is not the Great Falls, but it's the people. So with that said, thank you, Madam Chair.

Comm. Simmons: First, with regard to World Language, I just wanted to thank this group for being consistent and coming to these meetings. World Language is important. Just to give you an example, at about 2:00 a.m. tomorrow morning I have a conference call that I have on a regular basis with India.

Comm. Taylor: They speak English.

Comm. Simmons: Well, barely. At the tender age of 25, I find myself with Rosetta Stone for the Hindi language because that would make it easier. These meetings are not just with India, but with Japan. So World Language is extreme important because we have to prepare our students to become global citizens. Secondly, I wanted to congratulate Mr. McDowell on the conference that was held on Saturday. Unfortunately, I couldn‘t attend as I was out of town. But I was receiving text messages from family members that did attend and the overwhelming response was that it was something that was needed and something that parents had been waiting for. So again, congratulations to him. I wanted to point out and acknowledge Alan Knight for his dedication this Board. He was hurt yesterday at an event at Eastside High School. I believe he has nine stitches in his head and he is still here tonight.

Mr. Alan Knight: Thank you, Commissioner. Would you say that now in Hindi for me?

Comm. Simmons: With regard to the issues at Eastside High School, as several of the Commissioners have alluded to, this is not a new issue. This issue is not just at Eastside. It's a city-wide issue where we have this Black and Brown issue. As Dr. Awadallah alluded to earlier, we need to figure out where this stems from. I'm going to dare to take this a step further and say that it stems from the adult population. We have a lot of elected officials in this city who make reckless comments that allude to race and the youth are acting on it. So we know where it comes from and we have to be careful who we elect. We are a city of ‗we‘ - to borrow that phrase from Councilman Wimberly. At the end of the day we're all Patersonians and if we can‘t get this together we will end up like Camden. Camden is under state control, the entire city. So we have to get it together because we have to live together, work together, and go to school together.

Page 35 10/19/11 So the adults need to be more responsible. I have witnessed some of this violence. I have had to step outside of a business near Eastside High School because students were being chased by adults. That disturbed me. Some of the owners of the business had to step outside with me and that's a problem. It is students acting on adult issues. So again, the adults in this city and the elected officials in this city need to be careful what they say because they are making reckless comments which allude to race. So we have to be extremely careful. Onto better things, as Comm. Kerr mentioned, the Girls Leadership Summit took place on October 8th. We had a tremendous turnout and I can't take credit for its success. Comm. Taylor served on the committee that put it together. I did put together a committee of women who were involved in the organizations that Ms. Valerie Dade, a former teacher of this district, was involved in. I believe it was about 13 women. It was a journey, but they got it done. I wanted to thank Comm. Taylor for her commitment to the process and to making sure that the day turned out well. Thank you. That ends my comments.

Dr. Evans: I want to reiterate something that Board members have said over and over again. I don‘t want people to get the wrong impression about Eastside High School. Eastside is a safe school. There's no safer place to be in the City of Paterson than inside Eastside High School. When you put Eastside and violence together people think about the history of the school, but I want to assure parents that the school is safe. The challenges that you hear occur when youngsters leave the school. Recall that in years past, at least last year, there has been a safe corridor established once you leave Eastside and travel either east or west on Market or east or west on Park. There was clearly a police presence that was there that was established as a result of some violent acts that occurred. This year, as has already been said, this presence is not that great. There are policemen in the area, but not as many. But my main point is to reiterate to the parents as Board members have said there is no safer place that one can be than inside Eastside High School. But there is a problem outside the school that we collectively have to address. I would suggest as, one Board member already has, I think it was Comm. Mendez, that in the upcoming Joint Meeting with the School Board, the City Council, the Mayor, and the Superintendent that that be on our agenda. Thank you.

Comm. Simmons: Just a point of clarification, Mr. Alan Knight was not attacked by any students. He was attacked by an air conditioner.

Comm. Taylor: He's a little tall. Mr. Sapara-Grant is going to watch and take care of that problem.

Comm. Rodriguez: It‘s an air conditioner from Eastside.

Comm. Taylor: We're sorry that it happened to you. He was busy looking at something else and not remembering his environment and walking. The edge of the air conditioner hit him in the scalp and he thanked Dr. Hodges for helping him out at the time. That's a lot of stitches, nine in the head. Thank you. I'd like to say that I was at the morning for the Parent Awareness Day and it was a joy. I've already said that for me whenever the parents are involved. The staff and everyone was just so wanting to be there. Yes, Dr. Evans, we need a larger place, one that lends itself to easy in and out and also where children will be able to go to and for parents to be at the same time for their workshops and things like that. I also participated in the Girls Summit and that was grand. Over 255 girls showed up from grades 5-12 and I still have my bracelet on. I'm still in the fever of it. Over 100 parents were there and they attended their workshops. I was one of the mentors and I followed a group around to every one of their workshops. They did ask me to speak on behalf of the Board. I did acknowledge you, Comm. Simmons. But

Page 36 10/19/11 the women worked very hard, more than 13, by the way. Ms. Dade‘s daughter worked, she was a chairperson, and Mr. Simmons‘ wife was the co-chair. They worked very hard. I never saw so much texting, e-mailing, and telephoning in my life, especially the using the technology. But I said don‘t text me, call me. The e-mails came. I could read some of those, but the hard copies and a lot of the other things. We coordinated everything from the floor to the ceiling for the girls that day. I met some girls in the shopping center in another place on the street and when we were there the girls said, ―Ms. Taylor, are we going to have this next week?‖ I said, ―No, sweetheart. We cannot have it another week. Not now. Maybe next year we'll try and do it.‖ But it was a good affair with motivational speakers in every room. We had mostly women and then sometimes the associate might be male. It was not just one. We had a few in there, you just didn‘t see them. They were there. We may have been running a workshop, but there were some other people that were associates in each room and they spoke. But it was a very good day and I think it's something that our girls really needed. You're talking about bullying, domestic violence, and saying the right thing at the right time, knowing the right talk to talk in order to do the walk. This is the kind of thing that we were trying to work with the young ladies. You could tell some of them really needed some help. I also would like us to remember that on October 24-28 we have the Substance Awareness Department Red Ribbon Week. It's a whole week of assembly programs, class discussions and lessons in core content standards, drug education, guest speakers, and drug information materials. Go visit the schools and find out if they're having it at your particular school. Please do try to go to it and make sure that it happens. We will be in Atlantic City for the Board conference for Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday. I hope to see you all there. Wear your badges. And yes, we need to talk in positive way about Paterson. It's what we've done on this Board for quite a number of years now and that's why we're moving up with our scoring as far as being a cohesive and an understanding Board of the parents and the children and the programs that Dr. Evans has brought forth and the other superintends that were here and had programs. It's just that it was a shame that they cut the money out each time and flattened us out all the time and we had to start from scratch again. It just kept happening over and over again. But I think we may have an idea of how this is being done now and we may be well into the game. I did used to play football. I'd like to get a touchdown right now with the State Department of Education. I'm a little weary of 20 years of this. I was in the district working at the time when the district took us over. I think it's about time that they released us from the bondage. I don‘t want to go to scriptures or the Talmud or the Koran. I don‘t want to go to the Hindi papers, diversity and all that. But I'll just tell you that they need to be more understanding of urban education. It's a different way of doing education. There are so many complex issues when you're in a city. I abhor the violence. I do not want violence. I'm always asking for peace no matter where we are and I try to talk children into understanding how you get peace and gain resolution when you‘re arguing and not working something out with each other. You've got to ask the right questions. You've got to say the right thing. You've got to use the right words. And you are right. Parents need to talk properly in their homes and on the sidewalks. There are any numbers of times you can hear people cursing all over the place and the child is walking behind them. Or they're saying I'm going to bash this one or bash that one. Language like that is not peaceful and it's not teaching a child how to be a peaceful person. So it's all out there for us to see. We need to calm it down. That's my comments for right now. I think I've talked enough. I didn‘t cheer enough, but I am wanting our parents to really stay involved in the right away. I just saw a little paper, Dr. Evans, that you sent to the principals on school improvement efforts and how visits impact the school. I know that when I had to assess teachers to find out if they were teaching the right materials and teaching it in the right manner, I had to go in and observe and make an assessment of teachers and all the staff. In fact, all the staff, custodian on up we had to evaluate and then asses

Page 37 10/19/11 their quality of service. This says that if the parents want to come in you should make an appointment with the principal. But I'll tell you sometimes the secretary will say the principal is not available. Don‘t stop there if you can‘t get them on the telephone. I hear the parents come here and say, ―I call that school and I can't get the principal. I go to that school and I can‘t get the principal.‖ I'll give you one better. A lot of times parents write us and then we give the letter or the information to the Superintendent. Then they say, ―Why didn't they call us?‖ But here in his letter he's telling the principal to be available to the parent and the parent is to make an appointment in advance so that you can be sure that they can dedicate their full attention to you as a parent and your information needs during the visit. To assist in scheduling your appointment, please contact our office and my staff will be happy to help you. If you can't get through to that school that you're wanting to, call the Superintendent‘s office. He has a very good staff that can help you get to what you want to have happen for your appointment. If you can't get it through, you call the Superintendent‘s office. I'm asking the Superintendent to make sure the principals dedicate some parent time. If they want to say there's a scheduled time for parents to come and see us, they need to send that out with the school organization. Let them know that the principal is available between a certain block of time in the building. Then the secretary will know, the liaison will know, and the parents will know. I will try to make my appointment either in the morning, the afternoon, and whenever there is a parent/teacher meeting. Please make that available to the parents.

Comm. Mendez: Can you allow me to just make a comment on the letter? You just mentioned that the principals need to be available, but not only available, but friendly also. They have to be friendly and make sure that the parents feel welcome because that‘s one of the biggest issues that we've been having lately. As a Commissioner, I believe that it's not only me that receives those calls. When the parents go to the school and they stay for half an hour or twenty five minutes and nobody asks them, ―Can I help you with something?‖

Comm. Taylor: Alright. Those are the ways to approach the schools. I understand what you're saying and it's on both sides. There is a way the parents enter and get their services. We should be school friendly and everybody who works in that building should be friendly, from the custodians, the security, the teachers, any aides, anybody. You need to be friendly no matter who you are. I don‘t care what kind of day you're having. I don‘t care what kind of day you're having. Don‘t let me find out what kind of day you're having by the attitude that you take with me as a person that comes to visit your school or to see your school in body language and facial language. Your face tells a lot. Your body tells a lot, how you hold your arms and how you turn your head or don‘t want to look. There are a lot of things. People from different racial ethnic groups have all kinds of clues on how they can tell that a person is engaging them or is engaged with them. Believe me. People from all over the world have a way to know whether you are receptive or not. So all our people in our schools better get down and understand. Parents come in and I‘m telling parents to watch your attitude too. When you come in, you come in with a happy feeling. I know you might be upset, but then have all your stuff listed that you need to have answered and have to ready so the person if they can't answer it go to the next one. Then you know the next step you have to take. Mr. McDowell and all the people that teach you, they tell you what the next step shall be. That's how it is in the district.

Dr. Evans: I just want to add to the comments that you're making. The memo that you're alluding to actually addresses two various perspectives as it relates to principals. We've changed the playing field for principals. We've changed it significantly. We've increased expectations and we're holding them accountable for performance. In fact,

Page 38 10/19/11 starting with my position and on down throughout the organization, everybody is being held accountable for performance. If we don't get the outcomes that we need, particularly the academic outcomes, then none of us, including myself and the principals, will be here. We're saying because of that and because we are expecting principals to be in classrooms observing teachers, giving them feedback, guiding instruction, we expect them to engage parents. We expect them to do a lot more than they used to do. Management, making sure the lights work and the building is heated, is now lower on their list of things to do because there are other people who can make sure that there is heat in the building and that the lights work. I want them to make sure that teachers are teaching what they're supposed to teach. To that end, what I need for folk to do when they engage principals is to be mindful of the fact that I have placed very high demands on their time and activities, and be considerate of that and make appointments. If we have an emergency, obviously we have to stop what we're doing and deal with emergencies. No question about that. But short of an emergency, please make appointments with them going in and they will accommodate you, but appointments will be made. I hear occasionally from parents where that does not happen and we deal with that. I continue to invite people who are having problems getting their problems heard and addressed in schools to do what they're doing, contact the assistants for administration, contact my office, and we will work with them and we will help them. But if it's not an emergency then work with the principal. Give the principal the opportunity to do their job in terms of instruction and they‘ll set an appointment with you at a time that‘s convenient for you and them that day or no later than the next day. Within the 24 hours they‘ll meet with them and they‘ll address them, but please consider the fact that we have placed very high demands on them and their time.

Comm. Taylor: Thank you. At this time we're going to do General Business and I'm going to ask the Board members to make sure that you keep your comments brief because most of our work should have been done during workshop. If it has not been done just have this understanding, next time you have workshop if it takes you to 12:00 or 1:00, go there. Thank you.

GENERAL BUSINESS

Items Requiring a Vote

PRESENTATION OF MINUTES

Comm. Taylor presented the minutes of the August 24, 2011 Special Meeting, the September 7, 2011 Workshop Meeting, the September 21, 2011 Regular Meeting- Transcript, and the September 21, 2011 Regular Meeting, and asked if there were any questions or comments on the minutes.

It was moved by Comm. Hodges, seconded by Comm. Guzman that the minutes be accepted with any necessary corrections. On roll call all members voted in the affirmative. The motion carried.

CURRICULUM AND INSTRUCTION COMMITTEE

Comm. Irving: The curriculum committee met on October 4th. Members present were myself, Dr. Hodges, Comm. Cleaves, and Comm. Kerr. Board of Education staff present was Brenda Patterson, Annalesa Barker, and Andre McCollum. We discussed the NJQSAC component that involves curriculum and instruction. We discussed that at length and committee members recommended that there be a special meeting with the

Page 39 10/19/11 curriculum committee and those responsible for curriculum to assess what we need to do to get our scores higher for next round of QSAC assessments. In addition to that, we discussed the agenda items and this is more information for Ms. Patterson via Cheryl. The curriculum committee needs substantial time to vet the information so that we invite whoever needs to be invited or we need to hear from at the actual curriculum meeting. I am not for inviting, if we have 34 action items, 34 people to the meeting. I will say this. He would rather do that and I am trying to alleviate that. But his point is becoming more valid each and every meeting because we're getting the information three days beforehand the night before. I'm at a point where I have no other choice unless this process is carried through the way I like it to be done, which is Board members, especially curriculum committee members, receive their agenda at least five to seven days before the actual curriculum meeting day so that we can vet the material, read it, and then invite those individuals a day or two before the actual meeting. All the folks that we have questions for, we can invite those people. So instead of having 35 people sitting in a room when we only may need 15, we can invite the 15 that we need. But if that does not happen, I'm prepared to go with the recommendation Dr. Hodges has. He‘d like to bring everybody in there, which does not leave me much option.

Comm. Taylor: That‘s the strategy on how you want to make sure your committee meets and be more efficient.

Comm. Irving: Right. I think we have great conversations, but we have great conversations after a day of reading the information or getting it the day of. It's just not conducive.

Comm. Taylor: I think the Superintendent heard what you just said. Is this the report that you have here?

Comm. Irving: Yes, ma‘am.

Comm. Taylor: Did you want to read that?

Comm. Irving: We also discussed the grade level expectation guides that Kemper McDowell rolled out to us two months ago. Kemper reported via the chair that the guides were not being translated into Spanish, Arabic, and I believe Bengali, with the hopes of getting a translation, as some of the Commissioners here indicated, to be consistent with the languages of those respective communities. In addition to that, Board members asked questions of the action items that were presented. We discussed A-1 to A-35 at length.

Comm. Irving reported that the Curriculum and Instruction Committee met, reviewed and recommends approval for Resolution Nos. A-1 through A-35:

Page 73 10/19/11 It was moved by Comm. Hodges, seconded by Comm. Kerr that Resolution Nos. A-1 through A-35 be adopted.

Comm. Mendez: Resolution A-6 is approving collaboration with the Taub Foundation and the City of Paterson Division of Recreation. I believe that this resolution is a great program. We're talking about a basketball program. But I cannot support this resolution because if we look at it one of the requirements for the students to be part of this program is to have a C on their test scores. I didn‘t have the opportunity to comment at the workshop, but for me this is unacceptable. We're putting our students to fail with this requirement. This resolution has to be revised. I believe that we have to make a change on this. It is a great program and we want the students to take advantage of this program, those students who love basketball and love sports, but the requirement has to be higher than a C.

Comm. Taylor: Excuse me, Mr. Chair. I believe we have a policy that says that the student has to have a C average to participate in intramural and also interscholastic and any kind of after-school physical activities.

Comm. Irving: Right. I just want to make very clear that the C average is at the bare minimum. That‘s the point. The point is to say that no child should fall below that threshold.

Comm. Taylor: The rest should be home studying and trying to increase their ability.

Comm. Irving: Right.

Comm. Kerr: I think the policy is a C+, isn't it, 2.5?

Dr. Evans: It's currently a C. Over time it increases.

Comm. Kerr: Okay. That‘s fine. You're right, Mr. Chair. It's the bottom number, at least a C. That doesn‘t mean if the kid is borderline somewhere in there you can't give a special dispensation for that kid to be a part of the program.

Comm. Hodges: Normally I would support Mr. Mendez‘ position wholeheartedly, but the bulk of these players are in the elementary school. First of all, the Taub program is at least posing the issue of academics, which many other leagues, including the AAU, don‘t. These kids get enticed and there's no responsibilities place on them in terms of academics. The other thing is the Taub Foundation is footing a substantial portion of this bill, which we have to be very mindful of. We don‘t want to, and I have to be very careful how I say this…

Comm. Irving: Damage the relationship.

Comm. Hodges: Yes. Trust me. I'm not sacrificing standards here. We're not asking the elementary school to do that at that level yet. This is one of the questions I'm going to have for Dr. Evans afterwards about the guidance counselors. We have not put that emphasis on the elementary school level in terms of academics and sports yet. We haven‘t done that as the adults and as a system. So it would be onerous for us to ask them to reach that level when we have made no commitment and in fact our policy doesn‘t even address the elementary schools and middle schools. That's why it starts at 2.1 for freshmen, not the elementary levels. That's why I would support this and encourage the adults in that system to emphasize education. The other part of my question is, Dr. Evans, we've requested guidance counselors to be specifically

Page 74 10/19/11 dedicated to the sports teams at Eastside and Kennedy so that they can shepherd these students through this process. That's number one. Number two, asking the advisors at the high school level and the coaches throughout the district to go to the elementary schools to, number one, inform kids of this requirements later on and, number two, and most importantly, to encourage them to work harder in school, which is our entire process. There's some question as to whether or not the money has been released for those academic advisors at the high school level.

Dr. Evans: I met this summer with the athletic director, Ms. Shafer, and a number of others and approved those positions. So the news you're giving me, when in fact we talked about it a little earlier, was news. I would need to research and find out why my approval has not been carried out, but they should be in place.

Comm. Hodges: The other thing is we‘d like the tutorial programs to really be district- wide, but if not, at least at the two major high schools that occur in the morning.

Dr. Evans: I will follow up tomorrow morning and find out why, but then make it happen.

Comm. Irving: Any other questions on A-1 through A-35?

On roll call all members voted as follows:

Comm. Cleaves: Yes.

Comm. Guzman: Yes.

Comm. Hodges: I'm abstaining from A-4 and A-5. In the absence of a compendium, which will enable me in an informed way to make my decisions, I have to vote no on the rest of the items, except any items that involve me. In fact, I'll abstain from A-35 altogether.

Ms. Williams: And yes for the rest?

Comm. Hodges: No. I'm abstaining on A-4, A-5, and A-35, and no on all the others.

Comm. Irving: Yes.

Comm. Kerr: Yes.

Comm. Mendez: Yes.

Comm. Rodriguez: Yes.

Comm. Simmons: Yes.

Comm. Taylor: On A-35, do we abstain from that if we're involved with that? That‘s not us? I didn‘t look at that. Okay. Yes.

The motion carried.

LEGAL COMMITTEE

Comm. Taylor: Comm. Rodriguez, did you pass the minutes?

Page 75 10/19/11 Comm. Rodriguez: Yes.

Comm. Taylor: Do you have the minutes down that end? Did you give it to your persons?

Comm. Rodriguez: I passed it on going that way.

Comm. Taylor: I have it, but I want to know if you have it.

Comm. Rodriguez: I was the one that passed those on.

Comm. Taylor: I understand. I was just asking if everyone had one.

Comm. Rodriguez: Yes, Madam Chair. Basically, the legal committee met on October 5th. The meeting started at 5:45 p.m. Presiding was Comm. Rodriguez. Member present was Comm. Irving. Absent were Comm. Taylor and Comm. Simmons. From the staff we had Carol Smeltzer. Basically, we discussed the short-term lease agreement with St. Theresa‘s Roman Catholic Church for students from STARS Academy. We're talking about 72 students. It's going to be a four-month lease. After the fourth month it's going to become a month-to-month lease. The rental cost is going to be $20,732.83. But as a district we‘re expecting that maybe we'll stay there the remainder of the year. That‘s the expectation that we should be prepared for.

Comm. Rodriguez reported that the Legal Committee met, reviewed and recommends approval for Resolution No. B-1:

It was moved by Comm. Mendez, seconded by Comm. Guzman that Resolution No. B-1 be adopted. On roll call all members voted in the affirmative. The motion carried.

Comm. Taylor: Was there an addition to fiscal, C-18?

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that this resolution shall take effect immediately upon its adoption.

It was moved by Comm. Rodriguez, seconded by Comm. Mendez that Resolution Nos. C-1 through C-18 be adopted.

Comm. Hodges: Regarding C-18, this is a revised budget and each of you received a spreadsheet via e-mail which elaborated on some of the expenditures. Within those expenditures there are items pertaining to the Innovation Zone. The concern that I have is this Board voted down the Innovation Zone. The Superintendent, as we predicted, vetoed our vote. As procedure we forwarded the Commissioner of Education the letter of explanation for our vote and he has yet to respond. There's supposed to be a 15-day window in which the resolution cannot be placed into practice until he responds after it's been vetoed. So we've not had any response in that interval. At this time, I'll just give you some of the options. I would be disinclined to support this item at this time. The problem is if we vote this down the Superintendent will veto that vote. If, however, we table this item the Superintendent will then have to go to the Commissioner of Education and explain the reason why we tabled it to get it off the table, which is we are awaiting his disposition. He‘d be encouraged to act one way or another. So at this time it's my recommendation that this item be tabled until there's a response.

Comm. Irving: I second that nomination.

Comm. Kerr: Before you move that, is it moved and seconded?

Comm. Hodges: No, I'm just putting it out there.

Comm. Kerr: Let‘s have some further discussion.

Page 94 10/19/11 Comm. Rodriguez: I come from a little bit of a different angle in this one. A question that I have to the chairman of the finance committee is, ―In this revised budget how much discussion did your committee have in terms of input or discussion on this particular item?‖

Comm. Kerr: Comm. Rodriguez, the fiscal committee did not have any discussion regarding the budgetary allocation for the $27.8 million that was given to us as additional aid to the district. I only got an e-mail yesterday I think from the district saying this would be a part of what would be on our agenda tonight. The BA did ask me if I had any questions I should forward them to her and she would try to get the necessary answers for me. I did pose a few questions to her and she did give me some explanation. But in terms of sitting down with the committee and having a discussion, that was not done.

Comm. Rodriguez: That is my concern. We're not talking about pennies. We're talking about $27 million. I would agree that if we got a grant for $5,000 or $10,000 and it would come with such a short notice and without the discussion of your committee because that's why you were elected…(end of tape) …so you can provide your input and make recommendations to the rest of the Board. Not just you, but the finance committee. So that is my problem. It's not too much with the Innovation, but to have a more in-depth discussion of how this money is being allocated, even if we get ourselves into another veto. That is my problem and I would agree with the table for that reason. My last question is, through you to Dr. Evans, do we have a time constraint that we have to approve this item?

Dr. Evans: It was requested by the Department of Education that this be accomplished by mid-October. We've been working right up until the last minute to pull it together, and I need to explain some of what's on there. There are some items labeled ―Innovation Zone Teachers,‖ ―Innovation Zone Administrators,‖ and so on. The Innovation Zone teachers are music and art teachers that were restored from this pot of money, not necessarily dedicated solely to Innovation Zone schools. There are some things that we need to clarify for you that begs for some additional conversation. One of the questions I know is coming, what is the cost of Innovation Zone-related activities? Just those things that are pure Innovation Zone out of $27.8 million is about $700,000. Most of it is distributed across all schools, including Innovation Zone schools, even an expense of $1 million for Renaissance Learning for interim assessments. We have had a contract ongoing for interim assessments. I believe its Learnia. Is that what we had? We decided not to continue that and use Renaissance instead. Because it's added in as a new vendor it's represented as Innovation Zone, when it's not purely Innovation Zone. So everything that says Innovation Zone is not purely Innovation Zone—that‘s my point. But the short answer to your question, we were asked by the DOE to complete the exercise by mid-October. It wasn‘t completed in the last draft prepared by late Monday. Tuesday morning I gave the go-ahead to send it out so we can at least get it in front of you.

Comm. Rodriguez: So Dr. Evans, two additional questions. One, are we addressing within this budget my concerns, or I guess in this case the Board‘s concern, of World Languages, at least to get it to the point of middle schools and then try to return all of them next year? What would be the cost – I don't know if you have that number – of returning World Languages just to the middle schools?

Dr. Evans: Let me say upfront – and I thought I made this clear before – I had a problem with the previous World Languages program. I don't think it was effective in doing what it was supposed to do. As a result, what I've asked Dr. V to do is to create a

Page 95 10/19/11 new Foreign Language/World Language program that does provide effective instruction in several different languages and gives students options for choosing into that. So restoring all of the World Language teachers is not how we're approaching this. We are redesigning the program. That program is to be redesigned and redeployed at the beginning of the next school year. We‘ve gotten information from the county office. They're involved. They are aware. In fact, very soon we're going to be asked, if we haven't already, to submit a corrective action plan to say exactly what we're going to do and when we're going to do it. Obviously, that's will come before the Board before it's submitted, but that's our plan.

Comm. Rodriguez: The second one was the Gifted & Talented part that we've been talking about.

Dr. Evans: The same. Actually, I sought to create some pilots this year and I didn‘t find enough interest among our administrators. At the same time, we were engaged in developing the Innovation Zone which took our attention away from it because that consumed 100% of our time for several months. It really did. But in the meantime I surveyed principals, looked at some options, and decided those options really weren‘t strong enough for me to have confidence that we would have a pilot that would give us what we want. So Dr. V will also be orchestrating the development of a Gifted program for next fall.

Comm. Rodriguez: To start next year.

Dr. Evans: Yes.

Comm. Rodriguez: So this revised budget is not part of the $27 million, but it‘s part of the overall budget that we're going to be training the teachers to be Gifted & Talented.

Dr. Evans: Let me say it this way – when we talk about Gifted & Talented, when we talk about World Languages, we're talking about classes that youngsters who are in other classes now will be attending. As a result, the need for more teachers won't be the case. It will be repurposing positions to have World Language positions. That's different from approaching music and art. With music and art, yes, we wanted to provide music an art instruction, but students from all of the classes aren‘t going to music and art at the same time. There are some left in classes and there are some that go to music and art. But at the same time, that served a dual purpose, not only providing instruction in that area, but provided prep time for teachers as well. World Language could serve that same solution or resolve, but our intent really isn't to add a boatload of teachers. It's to repurpose them. Instead of having 10 positions for direct instruction at a particular grade level, maybe eight and two or eight and one. While some kids are in regular class others are in World Language in a way that doesn‘t require a lot more teachers. When Dr. V develops a plan we'll give more specifics on that.

Comm. Rodriguez: But in that repurpose of those teachers you spoke about World Languages. But talking about Gifted & Talented, and we had this discuss before, you know that there's going to be a developmental training that needs to happen for regular teachers to be able to teach Gifted & Talented students.

Dr. Evans: Not necessarily. Gifted & Talented teachers are Gifted & Talented teachers. They are certified. You just don't take a teacher and train them to be Gifted & Talented. They have to go through a rigorous training to become Gifted & Talented teachers, not

Page 96 10/19/11 the kind of in-service people normally think of. In most places they are certified to teach Gifted & Talented and that's who I want.

Comm. Rodriguez: So you are looking to hire those teachers or go and find them, rather than…

Dr. Evans: Actually, I learned that we do have some teachers, not very many, on our staff now with Gifted & Talented certification.

Comm. Kerr: Comm. Cleaves, did I see your hand up?

Comm. Irving: I just don‘t want to belabor this because it's almost midnight. I'm going to put a motion on the floor now that we table C-18 until we receive notice from the Commissioner of Education as per…

Comm. Kerr: Commissioner, I understand. But I think we need to facilitate the discussion.

Comm. Irving: I have a motion on the floor now.

Comm. Kerr: It's not seconded.

Comm. Simmons: Second.

Comm. Kerr: I need to facilitate the discussion.

Comm. Irving: Mr. Chair, it's been properly moved and seconded.

Comm. Kerr: Comm. Irving, let's just facilitate the discussion and then we'll move to that.

Comm. Mendez: I just want to be clear with the information that Dr. Evans provided us now. I hear, Dr. Evans, that you put a deadline on the World Language. It's not going to be this year. We're going to start next year with the World Language. Is that correct?

Dr. Evans: Correct.

Comm. Mendez: Okay. I just want to be clear on that part.

Comm. Hodges: Very briefly, and I'm going to call the questions shortly after this, all I'm going to say is that the Department of Education wanted a response by mid-October, and I understand their concerns. But I will also point out that so did we. On the QSAC letter we sent them we asked for a response expeditiously and we have not received one, and on the Innovation Zone‘s veto we've not heard from them. So I can certainly understand how they must feel not being answered. Number two, the more crucial the resolution the more likely we'll get the response. I call the question for table.

Comm. Kerr: No. You're going to move a motion to table. We'll move the motion and let‘s second it.

It was moved by Comm. Hodges, seconded by Comm. Guzman that Resolution C- 18 be tabled. On roll call all members voted in the affirmative, except for Comm. Irving who abstained. The motion carried.

Page 97 10/19/11 On roll call for Resolutions C-1 through C-17 members voted as follows:

Comm. Cleaves: Yes.

Comm. Guzman: Yes.

Comm. Hodges: No.

Comm. Irving: No.

Comm. Kerr: Yes.

Comm. Mendez: Yes.

Comm. Rodriguez: Yes.

Comm. Simmons: Yes.

Comm. Taylor: Yes.

The motion carried.

FACILITIES COMMITTEE

Comm. Hodges: There are no facility items to be discussed tonight. There are a couple of issues. Actually, I'm not quite sure we had a facilities committee meeting this month. We're going to try and schedule that. There will be a joint committee meeting on the 27th with the City Council to discuss a number of issues, including Hinchliffe Stadium. The Superintendent has in his possession an application for an NFL grant for funding for either of the concession stands or something that can be addressed or appropriated to the field. It's up to $200,000 and we're going to ask that that gets addressed expeditiously because that money won't be around for very long. I will say that we're hoping to get the HSPD. That's a football program that‘s run by the NFL at the high school level. It teaches fundamentals, but it also talks about the clearinghouse and making sure the students are focused on education. Right now Clifton has that program. We used to have it. We let it slip through our fingers through negligence. We're hoping to get that back and with that provide more substantive educational programs for our students. I will end my report, unless there is some discussion.

Comm. Kerr: I just want to make a point about the new surface at Bauerle Field. I was there last Sunday and I must say it's very very nice.

Comm. Hodges: I take full credit for it, Mr. Kerr.

Comm. Kerr: I knew you would. It's a great surface and I'm just trusting that we will maintain it and keep it the way it is right now. There is one issue I have. It was reported to me some time ago that there's no heating in the field house. It's very cold in the fall or winter when these kids are playing up there. So I just wanted to go on record that we need to look at the heating situation there and see if we can get that remedied very quickly.

Comm. Hodges: There were some discussions of having the district, as part of the $1.2 million, address the very significant problems in the field house and to dedicate this grant money to creating a concession stand with bathrooms that adjoin the stadium so

Page 98 10/19/11 that visitors don‘t have to come to the field house, which has a number of challenges. In addition to that, you can create a stove and a refrigerator. You can sell hot dogs, hamburgers, clothing through booster organizations in the district and in the various schools, as well as have bathroom facilities there, if this is done right. We're also looking into approaching some of the local vendors to see whether we can get them to supply some of the materials for the construction of the concession stand. I didn‘t want to put that out there, but we're also working on that now even as we speak. So we really want to go after this concession stand, because I think it will help boost the morale, encourage student participation in that program, and provide a better picture of what Paterson is about than we currently present.

Comm. Kerr: I agree with you, but that's more or less the long or medium term thinking or what we should do. I'm talking about the short-term. It's the immediacy of it right now. We have to get heating up there to make sure that these kids don‘t develop pneumonia by playing and exposing themselves in that cold place.

Dr. Evans: Can we ask Mr. Sapara-Grant to address the issue?

Mr. Sapara-Grant: Mr. Kerr‘s concern was brought to my attention yesterday. I spoke to the Principal at Eastside who's in charge of the field house and he had no idea or he was surprised that there was such a concern. So in my presence he called the athletic director who was also surprised that there was an issue because as far as I know there's no issue. There's heat in the building.

Comm. Kerr: There's heat in there?

Mr. Sapara-Grant: Yes. There‘s heat in the building. If this issue came up last week, heating plants start working on October 15. So it might have been related to heat not being on before October 15. But I've asked my staff and I've talked to the athletic directors and this is News to us.

Comm. Kerr: If heating is in that building, I'm happy. That's it. I'm taking your word for it. This was reported to me by coaches. So if heat is in the building, it's okay.

Comm. Hodges: But Mr. Kerr, that building has significant challenges in terms of the piping, the condition of the plumbing, the condition of the bathroom facilities, and even the locker room. There have been a number of discussions about dedicating a portion of that money, if we have any left, to addressing the field house and getting some of these things taken care of. I hope that we're still moving forward on that. Even though that might not be the issue today, there‘s a potential for that being a problem very shortly if you saw the plumbing in that place.

Comm. Mendez: At the Bauerle Field, who's doing the maintenance of the track? Are we hiring a company to do it, or are we doing that? I understand there has to be special maintenance for the track.

Mr. Sapara-Grant: There are two elements to your question. There is the day-to-day maintenance that is going to be done by our staff. However, we've gone out to solicit bids for a maintenance program and we are reviewing the bids right now. The district will take up the cost of the maintenance program.

Comm. Hodges: In addition to the track, there has to be some ongoing maintenance with the rubber particles on the field itself. That has to be ongoing.

Page 99 10/19/11 Mr. Sapara-Grant: That‘s correct. I assumed his question was the field and the track also.

Comm. Hodges: I just wanted to point that out as well. There are a number of maintenance issues which we're going to try to get a PM for, so that it's codified and we‘ll know that‘s placed on a regular schedule. That was a major problem. We lost that field, not because the field wore out, but because the water drainage system was not maintained. So we're going to have to be extra careful in taking care of that.

Comm. Mendez: My last comment is about School 5. I know we spoke at the workshop about the major leaking that we have at School 5 and the problem we have in the roof. I'm just going to make a comment on that. That‘s something that I'm worried about. I know that School 5 has been well taken care of at this moment with the staff. But I just remembered by the time I had the opportunity to visit School 5 I saw all the paint coming down from the roof. I understand that‘s because of the leaking, and that‘s something that we have to work on. It's not going to be done in a short time, but we definitely have to keep our hands on that problem.

Comm. Hodges: We probably won't have a facilities meeting this month because we have two facility-related meetings within the next week or so. But we're going to have a comprehensive meeting because we're hoping to have our energy company review resumed in November and move forward. I'm putting you on the spot, yes I am.

Comm. Irving: Since you brought it up, Mr. Sapara-Grant, where are we with that process? I know we had discussed scheduling meetings and then we got flooded.

Mr. Sapara-Grant: I think your comment is very accurate. We were trying to schedule the meeting and we got flooded, so it became secondary to everything else. Now that the water has cleared literally, we'll be able to schedule that.

Comm. Irving: So what's a reasonable window of expectation?

Mr. Sapara-Grant: I believe the November facilities meeting should be appropriate. I'll reach out to the vendors.

Comm. Irving: Great.

Comm. Hodges: Any further questions? Madam Chair, that concludes my report.

POLICY COMMITTEE

Comm. Simmons: The policy committee was supposed to meet yesterday, but at the last minute that meeting needed to be rescheduled. It will be scheduled for next week and members of the policy committee will receive a copy of the agenda.

Comm. Hodges: Next week we're going to be in Atlantic City and when we come back on Thursday we're going to have the Joint Meeting. Unless you're going to do it sometime…

Comm. Rodriguez: We'll talk some policies down there.

Comm. Taylor: The Joint Meeting begins at 6:30. So if you're available before 6:30…

Comm. Rodriguez: That‘s the Eastside meeting.

Page 100 10/19/11 Comm. Hodges: At Eastside High School at 5:00.

Comm. Mendez: We can have the meeting at Atlantic City.

Comm. Simmons: You‘ll receive a call. We do have item E-1 on the agenda, which is the approval of Policy 0142 on Board Member Qualifications, Prohibited Acts, and Code of Ethics for second reading. It includes the reimbursement of the cost for the criminal background checks.

Resolution No. E-1

WHEREAS, the Paterson Board of Education Policy Manual receives periodic revisions and additions; and

WHEREAS, the Policy Committee submitted policies to the Board for first reading; and

WHEREAS, a special public comment session will be held at the October 5, 2011, workshop meeting; now therefore

BE IT RESOLVED, that the Board of Education approves the following policies for second reading and adoption:

0142 Board Member Qualifications, Prohibited Acts and Code of Ethics

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that in the event any policy, part of a policy or section of the bylaws is judged to be inconsistent with law or inoperative by a court of competent jurisdiction or is invalidated by a policy or contract duly adopted by the State District Superintendent or Board of Education, the remaining bylaws, policies, and parts of policies shall remain in full effect.

It was moved by Comm. Rodriguez, seconded by Comm. Mendez that the Board accept Resolution E-1.

Comm. Rodriguez: It's in relationship, not to this particular policy, but the Small Business Enterprise policy that we put into the committee. I don't know if you had an opportunity to receive and review it.

Comm. Simmons: It was on the agenda for the next meeting.

Comm. Rodriguez: That was just my question. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Comm. Hodges: Is there any way we can separate the payment of the funds from the ethics part of this? We need to study this, but I don‘t want to interfere with the payment of this particular policy for those who have been diligent. I think this might need some further study, but I guess I'll get voted down on that. I was just wondering was that a possibility, to sever those two aspects of this wonderful policy.

Comm. Simmons: Not that I'm aware of.

Comm. Irving: This policy comes directly from Strauss Esmay. Right?

Comm. Simmons: Yes it is.

Page 101 10/19/11 Comm. Hodges: But it's not mandatory, so we can restructure it. I just don‘t want to inconvenience people who have their funds committed to it already.

Comm. Irving: This is only second reading, right?

Comm. Simmons: Second reading.

Comm. Irving: We have time.

Comm. Kerr: We can get a legal opinion right now. We have the lawyer here, so we could pose the question to her.

Comm. Hodges: I didn‘t see her. She‘s hiding down there.

Ms. Leslie Saint: How are you?

Comm. Hodges: How are you?

Ms. Saint: I would actually defer to responding to the question until I've had a chance to review the policy. I think while I'm generally familiar with the recommended policy, based on what Strauss Esmay has provided and what's outlined it would be proper to review it before advising.

Comm. Rodriguez: That's a lawyer.

Comm. Hodges: Spoken like a true lawyer.

Comm. Simmons: Any other discussion?

On roll call all members voted as follows:

Comm. Cleaves: Yes.

Comm. Guzman: Yes.

Comm. Hodges: Absolutely not. I'm still confused.

Comm. Irving: No.

Comm. Kerr: Yes.

Comm. Mendez: Yes.

Comm. Rodriguez: Yes.

Comm. Simmons: Yes.

Comm. Taylor: Yes.

The motion carried.

12-A13. Approved entering into an agreement with the Institute for Learning, University of Pittsburgh for professional development services for teachers and administrators to build capacity in providing students with high quality instruction and learning opportunities, for the period of September 1, 2011 through June 30, 2012, at an amount not to exceed $300,000.00.

12-A14. Approved entering into an agreement with the American Productivity & Quality Center (APQC) to assist the district with the design, implementation and sustainability of processes related to a transformational support system for schools in the Paterson School District Innovation Zone, for the period of August 15, 2011 through June 30, 2012, at an amount not to exceed $100,000.00.

It was moved by Comm. Mendez, seconded by Comm. Guzman that the Board acknowledges receipt of Resolution F-1.

Comm. Hodges: Madam Chair, we had on the table a couple of months ago a request that particularly the hires to the administration be accompanied by an explanation as to why they were hired and what qualifications they had that commended them to their positions, particularly in view of the fact that we seem to have so many friends who interview friends, which is a problem in this district from my personal point of view.

Comm. Taylor: May I ask you what you're referring to?

Comm. Irving: You can't.

Comm. Hodges: I can't.

Page 189 10/19/11 Comm. Irving: Not here. Madam Chair, if I can just add on to that, since you opened the door. There has been a great deal of restructuring of positions, promotions, demotions, and transfers of new people who come to this district, and quite honestly, as I said the workshop, I'm confused. We have assistant superintendents. We have chiefs of whatever. We have more chiefs than some of the American tribes right now. I don‘t get what‘s happening and what's going on here. Then we have staff members who are coming into the district who are hiring clearly colleagues or individuals who are making a significant jump and leap with regards to salaries. All of this to me just seems suspect. I think that the request that Dr. Hodges made is more apropos now. In the midst of the influx of money that's going to be coming to this district via the Innovation Zone, it is at times like this where cronyism and patronage has the opportunity to exist. Don‘t look at me like that. I'm serious.

Comm. Hodges: That‘s harsh.

Comm. Irving: But it's true. When there's an influx and flood of resources, there is more opportunity and more propensity for things like this to happen. I think it's important for us not to say that it is, but for us to be aware that the potential exists, and that we need to make sure we safeguard this district and ourselves from that process.

Comm. Hodges: I'm less cynical than my younger colleague. I would like, however, a comprehensive approach established, because when you don't have that, as has been suggested, the possibility of difficulties arise.

Comm. Taylor: Dr. Hodges, what are you asking for?

Comm. Hodges: I'm asking when people are hired, particularly in the administration, that there be an explanation as to why they're hired, a description of what commends them for the position as opposed to somebody else.

Comm. Taylor: I think Dr. Evans understands that.

Comm. Kerr: Madam President, I just want to add this. While I agree with my colleagues concerning putting in place certain controls, I just don't want us to convey the wrong message to the community that there is one-ton cronyism taking place here, because that is really not the truth of the matter. So although we should have these things, let us be very careful with the kinds of messages that we allow to get out there because it can come back to harm us.

Comm. Rodriguez: I come with a different note actually. If you remember, it had to be almost a year ago when I spoke about one of the assistant superintendents that left us. I spoke about that we have to have a retention plan for top-quality employees, which is extremely important. I don't know if you saw the news recently, but that assistant superintendent became the Superintendent of Wayne Public Schools. I want to take the opportunity to congratulate Ray Gonzalez, our previous assistant superintendent of curriculum, for becoming the Superintendent of Wayne. So congratulations.

Comm. Taylor: So hold on to our quality people.

Comm. Rodriguez: We have to have some type of retention plan. I've seen top-quality people leaving the district. Since I didn‘t mention it before, I want to take the opportunity to congratulate him and I'm sure that he's going to be doing well.

Page 190 10/19/11 Dr. Evans: The request for the additional information for hiring came in the workshop meeting and we are gearing up to provide that. I was just reminded that was two weeks ago. It requires revising our processes and procedures and putting staff in place to prepare it. That in addition to the many requests that you have that we want to honor does require time, and we have people now who are not doing their jobs as well as I want them to because they're spending a lot of time collecting and assembling information that we really want to get. But we've got to have people in place to do that. That's point number one. Number two, you do deserve answers. No question about that. I would suggest with regards to the reorganization of the district that an executive session be scheduled, because we're talking about a personnel matter, sometime during the month of November or as soon as possible. I know we have two meetings coming up within the next week, but perhaps for the November workshop meeting perhaps an executive session to talk about personnel. Because if there are concerns or issues I need to hear them and know them, but I also need the opportunity to explain to you where we are with our organization, because the organization has changed and in my opinion the organization needs to change. We're gearing up to build capacity to a much higher level than it is among our teachers and among our principals, and we're doing the same for district office staff. Their roles and responsibilities are changing. But we need to talk about and I need to explain to you how they're changing and what needs to happen to build the capacity that we need at every level to move the district in the ways that it needs to move. So I really want to get that information to you, but part of this begs for an executive session.

Comm. Taylor: Okay, Dr. Evans. You're asking for an executive session before our workshop meeting in November to alert the public and also our staff that it may take a while. When we're talking about personnel, and you're trying to explain all the reason why, this is a lot of different areas that you have made rearrangements for. So Board of Education Commissioners, listen up. You‘ve asked the question, you‘ve begged the question, now you should be at the meeting and be on time. If it's 5:00, it's 5:00. Be there.

Comm. Hodges: It was the very concern that Comm. Kerr raised that prompts the question that I asked. There are some concerns in the community about how we do our business and in some cases with good reason.

Comm. Taylor: I know that we've seen some people come before us and ask the question.

Comm. Hodges: Like I said, I some cases…

Comm. Taylor: Dr. Evans is doing the reorganizing and is willing to explain…

Comm. Hodges: All I'm doing is stating that I'm not trying to cast dispersions on the district, but I do want to disabuse the community of some of the concerns that they have.

Comm. Taylor: I think you want clarity of the process.

Comm. Hodges: I want a new process so that there is clarity.

Dr. Evans: May I comment further? I do fully understand the issue. I've been around long enough and I've been in enough school districts either as an employee or a consultant to know that when you have sensitivities in the community around personnel, then really you need to address those in your policies and your procedures. I'll be more

Page 191 10/19/11 specific. One of the districts I worked in did not allow the individuals who were actually going to be supervising the individuals to be on the selection teams. That was in that district‘s policy. The other two districts I worked in didn‘t. So that‘s the kind of thing I think we need to look at and address head on. I don't think we ought to bury our heads in the sand. I think we ought to address it straight up ,and if it means changing our practices and our policies to ensure that people have confidence in what we're doing, then that‘s the way we should approach it.

Comm. Taylor: Absolutely. So understand that when you get your packet you‘ll see that there's an executive session meeting. Cheryl, do we have to vote for it?

Comm. Irving: Let‘s do it after the workshop.

Comm. Rodriguez: Its better, Madam Chair, because at 5:00 I know Comm. Kerr has some issues.

Comm. Taylor: What about you? Do you have issues also?

Comm. Rodriguez: I'm speaking for both of us.

Comm. Taylor: Thank you. I understand. There are a lot of people are working full time on this Board and people who are travelling long distances or have other things going on. But anyway, we‘ll have it in the agenda. We‘ll go over that and have it after the meeting. Understand we will have come together after having met in your committees. So the workshop shouldn‘t be that heavy after you‘ve done your work in the committee. That's where it should be and you just report out to the workshop. Then if there are still hanging questions then we ask Dr. Evans to ask staff to answer those. Usually Ms. Jones compiles a whole list of answers for us and if you‘re not satisfied with that, then you have to get back to them.

On roll call all members voted as follows:

Comm. Cleaves: Yes.

Comm. Guzman: Yes.

Comm. Hodges: No.

Comm. Irving: No.

Comm. Kerr: Yes.

Comm. Mendez: Just to acknowledge that we're receiving, yes.

Comm. Rodriguez: Yes.

Comm. Simmons: Yes.

Comm. Taylor: Yes.

The motion carried.

NJQSAC

Comm. Taylor: The NJQSAC committee met September 26 starting at 6:10 p.m. Presiding Commissioner Willa Mae Taylor. Present was Comm. Irving, Comm. Hodges, and Comm. Mendez. Absent were none. Present was Ms. Brenda Patterson. Dr. Vanden Wyngaard was excused because of illness. Dr. Evans was absent due to hosting a meeting with parents on Hurricane Irene. We reviewed the QSAC 2009-2010 assessment and we discussed having a meeting with the Superintendent and staff from each division present for analyzing the indicators in a more comprehensive review. From that we evolved the resolution for us tonight, the one that we made.

Comm. Hodges: Before you move on from the QSAC committee…

Comm. Taylor: We have another meeting coming up.

Comm. Hodges: We decided that we were going to pursue some of those areas and we're going to have to in terms of challenges. I don't know whether they're going to do that or whether the Board‘s going to do that. But we need to get that straightened out, who's going to challenge those additional areas that we found. We need to do that as soon as possible.

Comm. Taylor: The NJQSAC committee is going to meet again very soon. I will call my committee and we'll get together. We have several meetings this coming week, so I think the following week we'll have a meeting.

Parent/Community

Comm. Guzman: The Parent/Community committee met on September 21. The meeting started at 6:15 p.m. Presiding was myself Commissioner Wendy Guzman. Members present were Comm. Cleaves, Comm. Kerr, and Comm. Mendez. Staff present was Mr. McDowell from the Department of Family and Community Engagement. I did give a report during our workshop meeting, but I have some points that I feel need to be read over again. One of them was the Family and Community Engagement, which passed this past Saturday. As we already received the report, it was a very great turnout with approximately 600 people. So we commend Mr. McDowell for that effort. Our PTOs at our schools, we saw that today we have 21 schools that were represented with parents that are part of and sworn into that PTO. We are looking forward to having all our schools with PTOs by the end of this month. A reminder to all the Board members and to the teachers, the Parent of the Year breakfast will be held on November 5, 2011 at 10:00 a.m. at La Neve‘s Restaurant. I'm not sure if we will be meeting again before that, so I just want to make sure that we each have that in our calendars.

Comm. Taylor: That‘s where you acknowledge the Parent of the Year.

Comm. Guzman: Yes. We acknowledge all the Parents of the Year from each individual school and the one main parent who is representing the entire district as Parent of the Year. This was started three years ago by our colleague, Comm. Errol Kerr. So this will be the third year that it will be in a place. It's on November 5 at 10:00 a.m. at La Neve‘s. Mr. McDowell is working on different projects, as we discussed, volunteering into our schools. Parents will be asked to be volunteering during the school year in different areas, whether it be cafeteria monitors, bake sales, spaghetti

Page 193 10/19/11 dinners, and cleanups, etc. What we're working on right now is our Board newsletter. Board members, please, if you are submitting an article please make sure we have it by this Friday. The deadline is this Friday for Board members to submit an article because we are trying to have our newsletter distributed to parents before Thanksgiving weekend. So we want to have all newsletters and any information that you want to put into the newsletter by this Friday so that the Parent Community committee can schedule a meeting after we come back from Atlantic City to start working on the process and how it's going to be laid out, and have pictures of our Parent Breakfast in our newsletter so other parents can see what's going on in the district. Mr. McDowell also stated that he was looking into creating PTOs at our preschools, which we saw that today. We had three preschools represented by parents. So that‘s a good initiative on getting parents involved at an early stage. To end, Comm. Alex Mendez requested at that meeting that we receive an evaluation on back-to-school night and what was the turnout at the schools. We still have not received that from Mr. McDowell, but I know he is compiling that information for us, to know what was the turnout, since it did happen during the same week of my meeting. The meeting that day ended at 7:10 p.m. and that concludes my report. Any questions or comments?

Comm. Rodriguez: Madam Chair, if they don‘t pick me as Parent of the Year this year, where do I complain? I've been at every meeting.

Comm. Taylor: Conflict of interest, Mr. Rodriguez.

Comm. Guzman: Maybe we've had other parents that have been at every meeting plus more. You never know that.

Comm. Mendez: Those numbers are very important for us. We need to know exactly the amount of people who attended that back-to-school night. Also, we're going to have report card night. So it's very important that you give that information and you share that information with us over here. That way we'll know how involved the parents are into the process.

Comm. Guzman: Mr. McDowell is compiling that information for us. Any further questions or comments? I don't know if Comm. Cleaves has anything to add.

Comm. Cleaves: I'd like to say this, but not to get into a debate with anyone…

Comm. Rodriguez: Don‘t say it.

Comm. Guzman: She‘s the coordinator, so she has a right.

Comm. Mendez: I'm ready.

Comm. Cleaves: Please submit your articles for the newsletter. I'm just asking you to please submit your articles. As of date we've only received one. Please submit your articles for the newsletter.

Comm. Mendez: You can talk with Comm. Rodriguez.
