The Superintendent said that, working in partnership with Aramark, the District has
captured the third place prize in the New Jersey Food for Thought School Breakfast
Challenge. The District will receive a $1,000.00 grant to purchase more equipment for
the Breakfast in the Classroom program. During the last year, the District’s participation

He congratulated all involved in making this happen, and he said the District looks
forward to serving many more students in the future.
Dr. Durán said that he spent the first day of school with TCHS Main Principal Hope

Officer, Ms. Alexa Ingram is the Assistant Superintendent of Special Education, and Dr.

Automotive, Certified Nursing Assistant, Electrical and Sports Medicine. Dr. Johnson is
awaiting DOE approval to include these four areas in the District’s new CTE plan.

3
the Dunn Middle School Band performed for many musical celebrities in the Hamptons

BOARD MEMBER COMMENTS
Mr. Truehart read the District’s Mission Statement:
All students will graduate with a vision for their future, motivated to learn continually and prepared to succeed in their choice of college or career. He expressed appreciation for the submission of the CTE program applications, stating
that this ties directly to the Mission Statement. He also felt the high school catalog was
well put together this year. Mr. Truehart said the convocation was excellent and well
attended by staff, and that many dignitaries were in attendance. He wished to carry
forward the guest speaker’s suggestion to express three positive things each day.
Mr. Truehart welcomed the new Board Members and stated he looks forward to working
with them in adhering to the Mission Statement. He also congratulated the Business
Office for the ASBO COE Award. Lastly, he addressed Ms. Terry-Wilson and stated the
Board takes her concerns very seriously and does appreciate parental involvement. He
was sure the Superintendent and Administration will address this issue for a prompt
resolution to her concerns.
Mr. Gomez Salazar said he is happy to serve on the Board, and he said that the District
does have the tools to make every child successful. He said that the Board is here to
support the Superintendent, and he looked forward to working with everyone. He stated
that he visited a school today unannounced, and he said that every parent should be
made to feel special when they come into their child’s school.
Ms. Millington also visited two high school sites unannounced. She said they were quiet
and organized, and that the change in location seems to be good for our students. She
agreed with Mr. Truehart’s comments regarding the value of parental involvement.
PRESENTATIONS TO THE BOARD
In response to a Request for Proposals (RFP), the following two attorneys presented to
the Board on their firm’s capabilities and services offered:
Ø Mr. Lester Taylor of the law firm Florio Perrucci Steinhardt & Fader, LLC
Ø Mr. Perry L. Lattiboudere of the law firm Adams Gutierrez & Lattiboudere, LLC
The firms received the top two scores out of all respondents to the RFP. The Board had
questions and comments in the following areas:
•
•
•
Efficiency and billing practices *
Assignment of a specific attorney to the Board *
Opening a Trenton office *
4
•
•
•
•
Possible conflicts of interest
Familiarity with, and understanding of, local policies and procedures
Reasons to choose the firm
Experience in mentoring other attorneys *
* - Question asked by Legal Counsel Kathleen Smallwood-Johnson
Note to Minutes: Ms. Smallwood-Johnson did not rank any of the attorneys and was not
part of the RFP process because she has worked for various law firms.
Dr. Rosenbaum observed that the Board has been without an outside attorney since
June 30 when the contract with the former firm expired. She said this has saved the
District a considerable amount of money, and she asked if the Board can continue with
Ms. Smallwood-Johnson serving as Legal Counsel and using an outside firm for
overflow work, as has been done since June 30. Ms. Smallwood-Johnson answered
that the Board must decide this, and she advised that conflicts do arise which may
necessitate transferring a case. She estimated that there are currently ten matters
which fall into this category.
At this time, Mr. Truehart made a motion to appoint Adams Gutierrez & Lattiboudere,
LLC as the Board Attorney. Ms. Gussin seconded the motion. Mr. Redd wished to
discuss further Dr. Rosenbaum’s suggestion. He felt that the Board should discuss in
Executive Session the ten matters which require outside counsel, prior to making a
decision to appoint a Board Attorney. After a concentrated discussion, Mr. Truehart
agreed to table his motion to the September 22 Board Meeting.
