Report of the Superintendent
Mr. Muñoz said his first report would be the presentation of the Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR).
Ms. Arellano introduced Ms. Elizabeth Shick of Lerch, Vinci & Higgins, LLP, who provided a presentation on the yearly Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR) and the Auditors’ Management Report.
Ms. Shick reported that as of June 30, 2019 the district was in a healthy financial position and received an unmodified audit opinion, which is the best opinion a district can receive. Ms. Shick shared that there were no audit recommendations this year, which has not occurred since she has been conducting the audit. The CAFR has been submitted to International ASBO for Certification in Excellence Financial Reporting and the district should hear back with results within five to six months.
Regular Public Meeting Minutes January 27, 2020 Page 5 of 106
President Soto asked Ms. Shick what were the audit recommendations from last year.
Ms. Shick responded that there were only a few minor general noncompliance issues.
Mr. Miller thanked Ms. Shick and the business administrator for the wonderful work, saying that having no recommendations speaks a lot as to the staff of the business office. Mr. Miller said that Lerch Vinci & Higgins, LLC is a tough, well-regarded firm and the numbers have been telling a very good story about the district. He recommended that everyone read the CAFR report.
Mr. Muñoz thanked Ms. Shick for the report and the work the firm did and thanked the business office, lead by Ms. Arellano, the Business Administrator and Mr. Bowman, the Comptroller.
Recognition:
Mr. Soto announced that the board would be honoring students who have achieved the following status:
Advanced Placement Scholars - Earn a score of 3 or higher on 3 or more AP exams; Advanced Placement Scholars with Honors - Earn a score of at least 3.25 on all AP exams taken with grades of 3 or higher on 4 or more of these exams; Advanced Placement Scholar with Distinction – Earn a score of 3.5 on all AP exams taken with scores of 3 or higher on 5 or more of these exams (only 4% of all graduating seniors nationally achieve this honor)
All students were congratulated and presented with Certificates.
Next, the School No. 11 choir and band provided performances, as well as a solo performance by a high school senior singing “Lift Every Voice”.
Student Representative Report:
Regular Public Meeting Minutes January 27, 2020 Page 6 of 106
Public Participation:
Student LP – Youth Deputy Mayor and Student Council President for the Passaic Academy for Science and Engineering
The student said that Passaic High School has a representative who updates the board at each meeting about the activities at the High School, and she would like to share some of the developments at the Academies. She said the academies are focused on school spirit to ensure students have the best four years of high school experience, and have created eight new committees. Recently, they had voter registration at which 32 new voters were registered. They are also now working on a video to educate students about the importance of the census and the importance of being counted with their families.
The student said she will submit an invitation to the next council meeting, via email, to each board member.
Regular Public Meeting Minutes January 27, 2020 Page 7 of 106
Joe Conoscienti, 170 Broadway
Mr. Conoscienti asked the following:
Have all the schools been reinspected with regards to fire inspections? Although there appears to be notable improvement and progress of student scores during the past few years, how can you have 50% go nowhere? When will you stop playing musical chair with the educational staff and begin improving the mediocre ratings over the past five years? When will all fencing and vehicles be removed from the plaza at School No. 1 and when will it be restored and become a state of the art play area? How many public students are currently attending schools outside of the district? With regards to the reelection of commissioners, who are the opposing candidates running against the current commissioners?
Mr. Muñoz responded that the board was proactive and completed the demolition of TCUs at Schools#1 and #10. The summer months allowed the demolition and the improvements were reserved for a later date. Designs are being wrapped up and will go out to bid upon completion. Hopefully, the contractors can make the improvements during the summer months while students and staff are not in the buildings. Mr. Muñoz provided a short explanation of what was planned for each site.
Jaroslaw Jackiw, 266 Lafayette Avenue
Presented each board member with a packet which contained two attachments (A) and (B) and asked board to explain the difference in costs for out of district placements stating that Attachment B showed an additional 10,000,000.00 being spent than Attachment (A).
Ms. Arellano shared that the information provided on one of the documents is not all Special Education expenditures. She will reach out and provide Mr. Jackiw with further information.
Juan Cinto, 140 VanHouten Avenue
Mr. Cinto stated:
There are many vacancies in the Special Education Department, and asked what is the timeline for hiring special education teachers;
Middle-school-aged students located at the K-8 schools are not permitted to participate in clubs or sports; and
Can the public use school parking lots when school is not in session?
Mr. Cinto shared that the Saturday Academy as well as the afterschool programs are excellent programs and provide an opportunity for students to make up classes.
Mr. Muñoz thanked Mr. Cinto for the compliment regarding the Saturday and afterschool programs.
Regular Public Meeting Minutes January 27, 2020 Page 8 of 106
With respect to the parking lots, the district-owned lots, in general, are not open to the pubic due to liability issues. Any community organization can request to use any district-owned lot but they must submit a request for use and provide the district with an insurance certificate.
Mr. Muñoz explained the following regarding the parking lots:
#11 school parking lot was recently refurbished by the board, but it is owned by the City of Passaic and leased by the district during school hours. The community can use the parking lot during events held at the park. #10 – There is no parking at that location #5 and 5Annex are leased properties and the churches use the lot when school is not in session.
Mr. Muñoz asked Mr. Cinto to provide Mr. Truppo with the names of students who have complained to him regarding middle school sports as the district has a robust middle school sports program each season and students may not be aware. The Athletic Director or the Principals can reach out to the students and share the information.
Mr. Muñoz shared that the community and families are very happy with neighborhood schools, to the detriment of the magnet schools. Some families want to keep the siblings together for different reasons, such as child care or keeping the students at local schools.
Mr. Muñoz’s responded that the vacancies in special education are for many different reasons, including resignations or retirements, leaves of absence, etc. The Human Resources Department has more vacancies in this area due to the nature of the certificate needed, at times multiple certificates are required. Another reason is that many baby boomers are retiring at this time in general, not just in public schools. Special education vacancies are a challenge and the Human Resources Department works everyday trying to fill positions and provide substitutes.
