OPENING ACTIVITIES/Mission Statement PUBLIC PARTICIPATION Ms. Sara Echevarria from United Advocacy Group addressed the board about her group who advocates for parents with children with special needs. They meet 1 time per month and she wanted to ensure that all of the schools are aware of their services. A back to school bash will occur at the end of the month. Jean Scarani of Upper Deerfield PreK addressed the board. She has a letter of intent for 3 classrooms. She advised that her enrollment is low this year and she does not want to keep the 3rd class. It is causing her to lose revenue and it would be a hardship for her business. Ms. Edwards asked how many students she has in a class. She responded 15 per classroom and right now she has 24 enrolled. She believes that they can get 6 more students but not 21. Mr. Morgan advised that Mrs. Albanese would get back to her. Action: 1.7 RESOLUTIONS - NONE Information: 1.8 PRESENTATIONS - PARCC Test Results - Dr. Tavani presented the 2018 PARCC results to the board and public in a power point (attached). He explained that you need to add level 4 and level 5 to obtain the percent passing by grade. The state comparisons show that overall the passing percent for 11th grade LAL is 38% while we are at 31%. These low passing rates overall are why the State is moving away from PARCC. Mr. Gonzalez asked how the data is used by the schools. Dr. Tavani said they meet with teachers who were successful about their strategies. We also receive item analysis which is reviewed by C&I and shared with teachers. Dr. Jones also explained about the articulation meetings and the ability for staff to share practices and data. Dr. Jones echoed the issues with the test and how the state and Governor do not think it is a valid test. Ms. Todd asked if we know when the change will take place? Dr. Tavani said the state anticipates about 2 years from now. Dr. Jones added that she shared her concerns with the state for students who are bilingual and this may be their first experience with a computer. Dr. Jones introduced Ms. Torres who is recommended as the Assistant Principal at Cherry Street School. Ms. Torres gave a brief history of her credentials from Vineland.
