She's coming in to be a follow-up.

00:00:31,300 --> 00:00:31,720
I'm going to have to.

5
00:00:32,660 --> 00:00:33,920
Small island and OK.

6
00:00:34,320 --> 00:00:36,180
Mr. Zernau, I am here.

7
00:00:36,380 --> 00:00:36,620
Present.

8
00:00:37,040 --> 00:00:40,080
Yeah, Mr. Andreax, CSA, self-like bus owe.

9
00:00:40,240 --> 00:00:41,020
Just, of course, see it.

10
00:00:41,040 --> 00:00:42,320
And Dana Berry, all present.

11
00:00:42,700 --> 00:00:43,880
Just, I'll just call Chris.

12
00:00:48,170 --> 00:00:48,790
Oh, I don't know.

13
00:00:48,950 --> 00:00:49,630
I put you in.

14
00:00:50,910 --> 00:00:51,310
OK.

15
00:00:55,260 --> 00:00:56,060
Others present?

16
00:00:57,460 --> 00:01:00,560
James Andreax, Michael Busseau, just, of course,

17
00:01:00,720 --> 00:01:00,900
see it.

18
00:01:01,500 --> 00:01:02,100
And Dana Berry.

19
00:01:02,100 --> 00:01:04,060
We salute the flag, please.

20
00:01:16,380 --> 00:01:16,980
The

21
00:01:30,900 --> 00:01:35,100
mission of the Monarchy Township School District is to provide the best educational

22
00:01:35,100 --> 00:01:39,420
experience and opportunities to realize the potential of every child.

23
00:01:39,960 --> 00:01:45,180
In accordance with the New Jersey Sunshine Law, a notice of this meeting has been posted

24
00:01:45,180 --> 00:01:49,520
on the official bulletin board at the school and advertised in the New Jersey Herald and the

25
00:01:49,520 --> 00:01:50,740
Sunday New Jersey Herald.

26
00:01:51,500 --> 00:01:58,140
We're going to move executive session and to the end of the meeting and move right through

27
00:01:58,140 --> 00:02:01,300
the meeting at this point and we get the CSA report.

28
00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:02,740
Good evening.

29
00:02:04,060 --> 00:02:06,900
So we had a pre-successful first two weeks here at school.

30
00:02:08,740 --> 00:02:14,800
The drop-off and pick-off has been relatively successful as far as keeping traffic off with

31
00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:20,800
206, Mr. D. Mora out there remorning trying to usher parents along and just remind

32
00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:25,800
go to parents to please stay in the car, don't get out, drop and go as quick as

33
00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:30,400
possible. Back to school night is tomorrow from 6 to 8 p.m.

34
00:02:32,420 --> 00:02:33,680
For all of our students

35
00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:38,860
that didn't get sports physicals, we are having Dr. Atat at the school tomorrow

36
00:02:39,940 --> 00:02:45,260
September 10th, so Dr. Atat will be here, make sure your students have the physical

37
00:02:45,260 --> 00:02:53,300
forms with them to give bring to the nurse. September 21st, Zufal Health will be at the

38
00:02:53,300 --> 00:02:59,540
school to visit the pre-K for a free dentist visit. And September 25th is school pictures.

39
00:03:00,020 --> 00:03:05,400
Order forms will be sent after pictures are taken. So nothing needs to be brought in

40
00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:05,800
beforehand.

41
00:03:07,020 --> 00:03:09,800
And I think that's all I've pretty much got right now. Thank you.

42
00:03:10,740 --> 00:03:11,840
That's the end report.

43
00:03:14,740 --> 00:03:15,880
I'll keep this brief.

44
00:03:16,100 --> 00:03:17,900
But there's still a touch on finances.

45
00:03:17,900 --> 00:03:19,040
A little bit for you.

46
00:03:19,640 --> 00:03:21,900
Of course, we know that the budget is, you know,

47
00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:25,020
moment in time when the budget is written and things do change.

48
00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:26,120
I think the budget is written.

49
00:03:27,580 --> 00:03:31,140
First payroll for the second school year went out today.

50
00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:34,060
So since all the nights have been quite a bit of time

51
00:03:34,060 --> 00:03:36,660
going over the PCR and verifying.

52
00:03:37,300 --> 00:03:38,800
I'm making sure everybody's getting paid.

53
00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:41,260
They're right amount, especially with the new salary guides

54
00:03:41,260 --> 00:03:48,300
and everything. And with the changes, as of right now, we are about $46,000 over budget.

55
00:03:50,140 --> 00:03:56,380
That would be if we utilized every sick day that we budgeted before. We used

56
00:03:56,380 --> 00:04:02,560
utilized every alternatively that we budgeted before. So there's been a lot of changes,

57
00:04:03,120 --> 00:04:08,540
some additional staff coming in, some positions that weren't needed, some positions were needed,

58
00:04:08,540 --> 00:04:10,000
so it's constantly in flux.

59
00:04:10,700 --> 00:04:12,100
So what you say that we're going to do

60
00:04:12,100 --> 00:04:15,740
is constantly maintain a visual looking at that report

61
00:04:16,330 --> 00:04:19,960
every payroll and making sure that we are in line with that.

62
00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:23,420
We still don't know what healthcare is going to be.

63
00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:26,800
We did budget for the 30% increase

64
00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:28,180
for the second half of the year.

65
00:04:29,500 --> 00:04:33,420
Our hope is one to get out of the state plan.

66
00:04:34,380 --> 00:04:37,040
And two, that it comes in less than that

67
00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:38,560
which could give us some funds.

68
00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:42,540
We've been able to come up with a couple of shared services ventures,

69
00:04:43,220 --> 00:04:46,920
neighboring schools, Sanderson and Kennedy.

70
00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:50,100
Those are savings a little bit on the transportation.

71
00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:54,820
So we might be able to put money back into transportation costs,

72
00:04:55,300 --> 00:04:58,860
not go overboard, maintenance on the vehicles and everything.

73
00:04:59,980 --> 00:05:03,640
So we will be monitoring and there is a little bit of room.

74
00:05:03,640 --> 00:05:08,000
maybe that money can go back into salary lines.

75
00:05:11,060 --> 00:05:13,180
Keeping a close track on that as we go.

76
00:05:13,820 --> 00:05:17,120
You notice there is a list of transfers in there.

77
00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:21,540
Most of them are minimal, but there's a bunch

78
00:05:21,540 --> 00:05:22,620
that are substantial.

79
00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:25,860
And those are main changes to budget lines

80
00:05:26,500 --> 00:05:29,820
that change from March to June.

81
00:05:32,630 --> 00:05:33,250
And that's going to happen.

82
00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:39,680
We do have that wiggle room that's built in there

83
00:05:39,680 --> 00:05:49,280
based on sub two coverage days and the lead replacement days you just have to watch that very closely throughout the year.

84
00:05:58,450 --> 00:06:07,230
Of the 46,000 you say we're over budget. How much of that is real dollars and how much of that is projected use of sick time over time?

85
00:06:19,770 --> 00:06:29,570
If you remove that, you know, that's not used. If you move out of it, let's say nobody use sick time. What would be the other number there?

86
00:06:34,270 --> 00:06:39,230
I can give you a little example of why it would be over a little bit, I mean, just this

87
00:06:39,230 --> 00:06:45,190
week we had a new student start who has an IEP from the school where he's coming to

88
00:06:45,190 --> 00:06:50,730
us and in his IEP it has, he needs an aid with him.

89
00:06:51,490 --> 00:06:57,370
So you know, unfortunately like we have to bring that aid in to be with this child throughout

90
00:06:57,370 --> 00:06:59,850
the school day. That literally just happened this week.

91
00:07:01,910 --> 00:07:04,090
It's a legal document. There's not much

92
00:07:04,090 --> 00:07:09,750
that we can do in these situations. It's unfortunate, but the kid needs the support.

93
00:07:10,950 --> 00:07:15,600
Working with those situations and keeping those at

94
00:07:32,760 --> 00:07:36,700
full $85,000 out of our maintenance reserve

95
00:07:37,740 --> 00:07:43,320
to pay for maintenance from last year. At the end of the year, we were able to put that back into

96
00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:49,640
the maintenance reserve. We didn't need any of those extra funds last year. So that's still there,

97
00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:57,480
which is a benefit that we have if there is something that you know, catastrophic maintenance-wise,

98
00:07:58,020 --> 00:08:00,320
we still have that buffer. Sure.

99
00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:09,340
Some other increases, we got $32,000 in the rep grant,

100
00:08:09,700 --> 00:08:16,320
which is for rural, small district schools, last year it was $20,000, so that's an extra $12,000

101
00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:23,870
more than we budgeted that can be used for general school expenses, students or shoes like that.

102
00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:31,060
That'll free up money from other areas that we need to transfer into personnel.

103
00:08:31,960 --> 00:08:37,600
And with these transportation, with the stand to stand in Kinitini, I think that should

104
00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:44,600
be bringing us in what about 22,000? That's 22,000. The route itself, last year that route cost us about

105
00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:47,700
$10,000 doing in-house,

106
00:08:50,900 --> 00:09:00,760
$81,000, and then getting $22,000 back from that, so it's causing us less than $60,000 so that's right there $50,000 savings over last year.

107
00:09:02,140 --> 00:09:06,720
Some of that, that was what we're hoping to be able to do last year, we couldn't get it to work out.

108
00:09:07,740 --> 00:09:11,860
Reworking all the bus routes that we have, we could fill that with a part-time driver.

109
00:09:11,860 --> 00:09:19,640
Yeah and I mean yeah and we did even plan to cut off more to the transportation section but we

110
00:09:19,640 --> 00:09:26,000
we would have had students walking along River Road for two miles and like that's it's just not

111
00:09:26,600 --> 00:09:32,240
that can't happen so we had to you know we had to bring a route back that we didn't plan on having

112
00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:36,320
there, you know, but, you know, that had to be done.

113
00:09:39,870 --> 00:09:44,000
Keep you updated to where it stands right now.

114
00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:45,600
We have other

115
00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:48,620
major adjustments.

116
00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:52,100
Most everything comes out of the beginning of the year.

117
00:09:57,320 --> 00:09:58,760
And transfer now, as

118
00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:01,600
we are small,

119
00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:05,140
in either way.

120
00:10:05,580 --> 00:10:07,000
We have had a couple of students leave.

121
00:10:27,100 --> 00:10:29,340
President's report, I have nothing to report at this time.

122
00:10:30,980 --> 00:10:34,100
Caitlin's not here with us, so there's no high point report.

123
00:10:34,580 --> 00:10:35,420
Do we have any correspondence?

124
00:10:35,420 --> 00:10:37,160
All right

125
00:10:44,170 --> 00:10:59,330
approval of minutes be it resolved at the recommendation of the superintendent that the Montague Township Board of Education approve the regular meeting minutes and the executive minutes of August 12th, 2026 and a special meeting minutes of August 28th, 2026.

126
00:11:00,110 --> 00:11:00,950
Can I get a motion?

127
00:11:02,110 --> 00:11:02,110
Any

128
00:11:04,350 --> 00:11:05,690
discussion?

129
00:11:07,370 --> 00:11:08,150
Roll call.

130
00:11:09,330 --> 00:11:10,290
Mr. Belk.

131
00:11:10,970 --> 00:11:11,450
Abstain.

132
00:11:32,370 --> 00:11:47,470
I'm sorry I thought you did, okay. Sorry. Public Session, public comment is invited on all matters pertaining to the school district. All participants shall be permitted four minutes to speak and she'll state their name, place of residence and group affiliation.

133
00:11:47,470 --> 00:11:54,070
If appropriate, the board uses public comment as an opportunity to listen to the citizens' concerns.

134
00:11:54,490 --> 00:11:58,850
But please be aware that not all issues brought to a board meeting will be resolved this evening.

135
00:11:59,430 --> 00:12:03,110
Can I get a motion to open public comment at 641?

136
00:12:03,450 --> 00:12:04,290
Motion, second.

137
00:12:06,980 --> 00:12:07,700
All in favor?

138
00:12:08,260 --> 00:12:08,400
Aye.

139
00:12:08,840 --> 00:12:09,280
Any opposed?

140
00:12:11,860 --> 00:12:13,620
Lisa, did you want to?

141
00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:17,060
Who has it now?

142
00:12:17,280 --> 00:12:17,680
You have it?

143
00:12:17,820 --> 00:12:18,000
Okay.

144
00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:30,740
I just wanted to say, Kristen, is our PTA president, and she has a check to give to Mr.

145
00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:33,660
Andriak for installation of the school sign.

146
00:12:34,100 --> 00:12:36,640
It's from the fundraiser that we ran last year.

147
00:12:37,780 --> 00:12:44,480
I do want to add that it is, we raised substantially less than the PTA is giving us, but they gave

148
00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:45,540
us a check for $1,000.

149
00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:47,360
Thank

150
00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:55,400
you, Kristen for the check, please thank the PTA for us.

151
00:12:56,020 --> 00:13:02,960
Thank you very much, and the PTA does have a wonderful calendar booked out for us for this year.

152
00:13:03,360 --> 00:13:07,300
Mike, Kristen, it'd be very busy, so thank you for that too.

153
00:13:10,090 --> 00:13:11,930
Mike, Mark, do we have anybody online?

154
00:13:14,020 --> 00:13:14,580
Okay.

155
00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:19,280
Can I get a motion to close public comment at 643?

156
00:13:19,900 --> 00:13:20,240
Motion.

157
00:13:21,540 --> 00:13:22,140
Second.

158
00:13:24,890 --> 00:13:25,770
Finance and insurance.

159
00:13:26,370 --> 00:13:28,070
Oh, I'm sorry. All in favor.

160
00:13:28,570 --> 00:13:28,690
Hi.

161
00:13:29,250 --> 00:13:29,910
Keep us on this.

162
00:13:30,470 --> 00:13:30,690
Okay.

163
00:13:31,030 --> 00:13:31,150
Yeah.

164
00:13:31,690 --> 00:13:33,070
Michael, is that three people on tonight?

165
00:13:34,090 --> 00:13:34,270
Okay.

166
00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:38,700
Finance and insurance.

167
00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:44,020
Can I get a motion to approve resolutions F1 through F6 as listed below?

168
00:13:44,760 --> 00:13:45,180
Motion.

169
00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:46,020
Second.

170
00:13:47,220 --> 00:13:49,860
I do have some questions on some of those motions.

171
00:13:50,400 --> 00:13:50,820
Discussion?

172
00:13:52,220 --> 00:14:01,840
So, believe it's F-4, how is that 4,263.78 calculated?

173
00:14:07,030 --> 00:14:07,970
Is that...

174
00:14:07,970 --> 00:14:12,790
That's roughly 66% of the salary divided

175
00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:18,900
by 10 months.

176
00:14:19,800 --> 00:14:23,740
Okay, so that's a Sandistons 66% or month?

177
00:14:23,960 --> 00:14:26,900
Because was that Montecu's 66% with Sandistons?

178
00:14:27,260 --> 00:14:27,420
Yes.

179
00:14:27,420 --> 00:14:34,420
Okay, it is we actually other ones that hired her they reached out to the to the county and

180
00:14:35,200 --> 00:14:39,220
We planned on only hiring a part-time music teacher this year. We could not find one

181
00:14:39,220 --> 00:14:44,940
We had to go full-time in order to get one and this just kind of fell to us and it worked out well

182
00:14:44,940 --> 00:14:50,040
So thank you, and thank you, my good and F five

183
00:14:51,100 --> 00:14:55,060
If I can if I may ask the same question, how was that calculated?

184
00:14:55,060 --> 00:14:59,740
Well, that is based on

185
00:15:00,800 --> 00:15:28,920
Okay. So there is an app that the transportation services have for fuel consumption, wear and tear of the bus. We have our insurance on that bus. It's calculated in there. The salary and benefits of the bus driver and the paraprofessional. It's divided by seven students. Okay. And then it's any responsible to one.

186
00:15:28,920 --> 00:15:32,480
I don't understand any sense responsible for one of the white students on that matter.

187
00:15:32,660 --> 00:15:38,160
And hence that's the reason why San Distance Calculation is exactly the same as Kid of Tennis.

188
00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:43,660
Because it has to be per student dividing equally the cost of the route.

189
00:15:44,120 --> 00:15:45,600
Okay, good. Thank you, Mike.

190
00:15:45,820 --> 00:15:46,300
Any

191
00:15:48,920 --> 00:15:49,540
further discussion?

192
00:15:52,160 --> 00:15:54,800
Can I get a motion to close comment?

193
00:15:55,640 --> 00:15:56,120
Motion.

194
00:15:56,560 --> 00:15:56,880
Second.

195
00:15:59,320 --> 00:16:00,200
I'm sorry, Ropol.

196
00:16:01,060 --> 00:16:01,540
Yes.

197
00:16:02,060 --> 00:16:02,320
Bill,

198
00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:04,720
yes.

199
00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:05,500
Mr. Brasley.

200
00:16:13,440 --> 00:16:14,540
Yes, yes

201
00:16:14,540 --> 00:16:19,000
Andre before we continue if I could just and I apologize for interrupting

202
00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:24,540
It's my understanding that Caitlyn was intending to attend this evening's meeting

203
00:16:24,540 --> 00:16:29,060
She's coming into executive. Okay. Good. Okay. Thank you.

204
00:16:32,090 --> 00:16:32,850
Okay

205
00:16:35,230 --> 00:16:35,610
Okay

206
00:16:36,510 --> 00:16:37,310
Thanks Joe

207
00:16:39,660 --> 00:16:44,220
Personnel, motion to approve resolutions P1 through P4, list listed below.

208
00:16:44,440 --> 00:16:45,000
Can I get a motion?

209
00:16:46,280 --> 00:16:46,780
So moved.

210
00:16:47,060 --> 00:16:47,300
Second.

211
00:16:50,220 --> 00:16:50,680
Any discussion?

212
00:16:53,630 --> 00:16:53,950
Old call?

213
00:16:56,880 --> 00:16:56,980
Yes.

214
00:16:57,580 --> 00:16:58,380
Mr. Risley.

215
00:16:58,680 --> 00:16:58,820
Yes.

216
00:16:59,120 --> 00:16:59,540
Just a camel.

217
00:16:59,780 --> 00:16:59,920
Yes.

218
00:17:00,360 --> 00:17:00,860
Mr. Zernel.

219
00:17:00,940 --> 00:17:01,160
Yes.

220
00:17:01,680 --> 00:17:01,800
Mr. Johnson.

221
00:17:02,140 --> 00:17:02,280
Yes.

222
00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:03,720
Mr. Zernel.

223
00:17:04,140 --> 00:17:04,280
Yes.

224
00:17:04,540 --> 00:17:05,120
Motion passes.

225
00:17:07,300 --> 00:17:07,820
Administration.

226
00:17:08,260 --> 00:17:11,600
Can I get a motion to approve A1 through A8 as listed below?

227
00:17:11,940 --> 00:17:12,500
Can I get a motion?

228
00:17:15,090 --> 00:17:15,450
Second.

229
00:17:16,930 --> 00:17:17,910
Any discussion?

230
00:17:19,190 --> 00:17:20,950
I have a question.

231
00:17:21,490 --> 00:17:22,730
Do I have to recuse from A5?

232
00:17:27,810 --> 00:17:28,410
I've got a question.

233
00:17:28,550 --> 00:17:30,470
Why is A1 the acting superintendent?

234
00:17:32,900 --> 00:17:34,120
Should be the superintendent.

235
00:17:34,980 --> 00:17:35,240
That's right.

236
00:17:36,320 --> 00:17:37,720
No big deal.

237
00:17:38,740 --> 00:17:39,540
Strike the word.

238
00:17:44,080 --> 00:17:44,780
Just, okay.

239
00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:47,920
And Chris?

240
00:17:48,500 --> 00:17:50,340
I didn't answer my question.

241
00:17:50,760 --> 00:17:53,140
We will strike the word acting from A1.

242
00:17:55,860 --> 00:17:56,960
Is there any other questions?

243
00:17:56,960 --> 00:18:06,380
discussion? With respect to, let's see what's the one this says, A3. A3, I presume that

244
00:18:06,380 --> 00:18:12,940
that compensation with either shared services agreement with the regarding the most and

245
00:18:12,940 --> 00:18:21,300
so forth, and the other money related compensation. I presume that's consistent with our MEA contract.

246
00:18:21,300 --> 00:18:31,280
That actually, a three is an agreement that all the sending districts, sending districts

247
00:18:31,280 --> 00:18:36,160
with high point due, it's in case wherever in a position where we don't have a nurse,

248
00:18:36,640 --> 00:18:41,600
we would share the nurse, like they would say if we needed a nursing service, like they

249
00:18:41,600 --> 00:18:45,260
would send high point, would send somebody down here, if they were without somebody we

250
00:18:45,260 --> 00:18:51,740
We would help by sending our nurse up to them, that presumably again would be consistent

251
00:18:51,740 --> 00:18:56,100
with whatever the compensation clause of with our MEA contract.

252
00:18:58,280 --> 00:19:03,280
Oh, okay, so

253
00:19:13,620 --> 00:19:19,400
we've never used it before, but we all do this every year just in case the

254
00:19:19,400 --> 00:19:24,980
situation arises where we, it's hard to find a substitute nurse sometimes.

255
00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:46,560
Yes.

256
00:19:46,560 --> 00:19:46,560
Thank

257
00:19:53,920 --> 00:19:55,200
you.

258
00:19:55,200 --> 00:19:55,800
Thank you, Chair.

259
00:19:56,140 --> 00:19:56,380
Any

260
00:19:58,940 --> 00:19:59,740
further discussion?

261
00:20:01,240 --> 00:20:01,600
Roll call.

262
00:20:04,040 --> 00:20:04,180
Yes.

263
00:20:04,960 --> 00:20:05,560
Yes.

264
00:20:06,020 --> 00:20:06,380
Yes.

265
00:20:06,380 --> 00:20:06,880
Yes.

266
00:20:07,480 --> 00:20:10,500
Yes, but I recuse myself from A5.

267
00:20:13,130 --> 00:20:13,510
Johnson.

268
00:20:25,430 --> 00:20:26,490
Public session.

269
00:20:27,630 --> 00:20:31,470
Public comment is invited on all matters pertaining to the school district and all participants.

270
00:20:32,410 --> 00:20:36,170
She'll be permitted four minutes to speak and she'll state their name in place of

271
00:20:36,170 --> 00:20:38,090
residents and group affiliation appropriate.

272
00:20:39,010 --> 00:20:41,350
The board uses the public comment as an opportunity

273
00:20:41,350 --> 00:20:43,090
to listen to citizen concerns,

274
00:20:43,550 --> 00:20:45,830
but please be aware not all issues brought

275
00:20:45,830 --> 00:20:47,970
to a board meeting will be resolved this evening.

276
00:20:48,570 --> 00:20:52,070
Can I get a motion to open public comment at 6.50?

277
00:20:52,330 --> 00:20:52,650
Motion.

278
00:20:53,410 --> 00:20:53,930
Second.

279
00:20:57,450 --> 00:20:57,970
All in favor?

280
00:20:58,470 --> 00:20:58,610
Aye.

281
00:20:59,250 --> 00:20:59,830
Any opposed?

282
00:21:01,370 --> 00:21:02,350
Do we have anybody on?

283
00:21:02,690 --> 00:21:03,050
Any hands?

284
00:21:03,330 --> 00:21:03,630
Okay.

285
00:21:04,130 --> 00:21:04,770
How many do we have?

286
00:21:04,770 --> 00:21:05,970
three.

287
00:21:10,910 --> 00:21:19,810
Motion to close public comment at 651 and again motion. Motion. All in

288
00:21:19,810 --> 00:21:26,570
favor? Aye. Aye. Opposed? Do we have any unfinished business? Any new

289
00:21:26,570 --> 00:21:26,850
business?

290
00:21:30,810 --> 00:21:33,590
That's what I was just going to say too. I have.

291
00:21:42,500 --> 00:21:43,400
They're selling

292
00:21:43,400 --> 00:21:48,640
mums and they're also selling discount cards. So if anybody on the board would like

293
00:21:48,640 --> 00:21:50,960
those, you're going to go home to all the students as well.

294
00:21:59,030 --> 00:22:04,630
Absolutely. And the dairy queen, I use the dairy queen, you've got two Sundays for the price of one.

295
00:22:19,250 --> 00:22:20,870
All right.

296
00:22:21,370 --> 00:22:21,650
Awesome.

297
00:22:22,330 --> 00:22:22,750
Thank you.

298
00:22:23,830 --> 00:22:27,510
Also real quick, since we're on PTA business.

299
00:22:28,370 --> 00:22:41,970
They're looking for volunteers from staff and parents for the Halloween dance on October 23rd, and if anyone wants to join the PTA, it is $7, and that does help the school.

300
00:22:42,410 --> 00:22:50,450
Mendously, the more members we get, there's incentives that the PTA can get for the school by having their membership increase.

301
00:22:54,870 --> 00:23:00,690
And all of the sale and stuff that they have gone for moms and discount cards.

302
00:23:01,670 --> 00:23:06,150
No, Lisa, can I, I don't have any students or children, but could I join the bill?

303
00:23:06,450 --> 00:23:06,750
Yes, you can.

304
00:23:06,990 --> 00:23:07,190
Okay.

305
00:23:07,390 --> 00:23:14,790
Anyone in town can join the PTA, parents, teachers, and yes, the board, I am a member, obviously.

306
00:23:15,130 --> 00:23:15,410
Okay.

307
00:23:15,670 --> 00:23:16,690
Thank you very much.

308
00:23:18,390 --> 00:23:24,130
Just one more thing that there's in your packet, the annual delegate assembly, second notice.

309
00:23:24,990 --> 00:23:31,740
We need to send a delegate and hopefully for somebody to volunteer.

310
00:23:32,180 --> 00:23:35,500
That's for school boards, so it is November 21st.

311
00:23:38,530 --> 00:23:44,590
You wanted to add a resolution for them to consider that would have to be in by this Friday, but

312
00:23:44,590 --> 00:23:50,750
But I believe there's still time to delegate or don't want to delegate to attend.

313
00:23:51,030 --> 00:23:54,910
You would have a voting position with school awards on there.

314
00:24:00,990 --> 00:24:02,030
Let us know, I

315
00:24:17,710 --> 00:24:22,410
wish we would have to be received by this Friday so that I think you would then have to clarify that.

316
00:24:22,830 --> 00:24:23,050
Okay.

317
00:24:24,350 --> 00:24:25,110
Let us know.

318
00:24:27,500 --> 00:24:30,060
We're going to go into executive session.

319
00:24:30,400 --> 00:24:37,460
Be resolved that the Montague Township Board of Education recess and proceed to executive session to discuss personnel matter.

320
00:24:37,460 --> 00:24:40,740
Actors and legal issues, action may or may not be taken.

321
00:24:41,500 --> 00:24:46,040
Can I get a motion to open executive session at 6.54 p.m.?

322
00:24:46,040 --> 00:24:46,360
Motion.

323
00:24:52,390 --> 00:24:53,210
All in favor?

324
00:24:53,790 --> 00:24:54,170
Aye.

325
00:24:54,490 --> 00:24:54,970
Any opposed?

326
00:25:39,950 --> 00:25:40,150
Okay.

327
00:25:40,530 --> 00:25:44,210
Can I get a motion to close executive session?

328
00:25:44,390 --> 00:25:44,550
Yes.

329
00:25:44,970 --> 00:25:45,650
Second.

330
00:25:46,050 --> 00:25:46,230
Okay.

331
00:25:47,030 --> 00:25:56,270
The time is 8.50 and can I get a motion to, I can't even see without my glasses.

332
00:25:57,930 --> 00:25:59,050
to adjourn.

333
00:25:59,310 --> 00:25:59,870
Second.

334
00:26:02,150 --> 00:26:03,490
All in favor?

335
00:26:03,730 --> 00:26:04,030
Aye.

336
00:26:05,070 --> 00:26:05,950
Pardon the adjournment.

337
00:26:06,110 --> 00:26:06,550
A50.

338
00:26:06,890 --> 00:26:10,110
Next board meeting is October 14th at 6.30 p.m.
