Warren L. Lewis, 0. CarlysleMcCandless, Frank H. McCloskey, and William D. Ticknor, Jr. Mrs. WinifredR. Schambera, Secretary, was present.

Mayor Donovan called the meeting to order at 8:00 p. m., and, on roll call,all present acknowledged having received a copy of a Resolution from theBoard of Education together with a call for the meeting.

Mayor Donovan read the following statement:

This is a public meeting of the Board of School Estimate. It isnot a public hearing at which residents are permitted to expresstheir views for or against the subject before the Board of SchoolEstimate.

There is no legal requirement that the Board of School Estimatehold a public hearing on matters of this kind. We are here to acton a request of the Board of Education.

I received a copy of the Board of Education's resolution of October12th, as required by law, on October 15th, along with a statementthat under the regulations of the State Board of Education a meetingof the Board of School Estimate must be called by the Mayor withinfive days. Accordingly it was impossible to place a notice of themeeting in the Press-Journal, but a notice was published at my re-quest in "The Record" on Saturday, October 17th.

The Board of School Estimate is fully aware of the Board of Educa-tion's request that the Creche property be purchased, and thereasons therefore.

We have also received petitions, telegrams and letters for andagainst the purchase, all of which will be noted at this meeting.I am, therefore, ruling that no statements from the audience willbe accepted at this meeting.

The following resolution received from the Board of Education was read bythe Secretary:

WHEREAS, the Board of Education of the City of Englewood, BergenCounty, New Jersey, has decided that it is necessary to raisemoney for the purchase of a tract of land located on Broad Avenue,Englewood, New Jersey, which property was formerly owned by Edge-water Creche and Rethmore Home, and which property is oppositeRoosevelt School, for school purposes, for the following reasons:

-

Board of School EstimateMinutes, October 19, 1964

1 . There is a serious condition of over-crowding atRoosevelt School. The enrollment as of October 1, 1964- is fourhundred and four (404) children in Kindergarten and grades 1through 5. Studies of the school plant show that the RooseveltSchool has a functional operating capacity of 336 children.

2. Other school facilities of the Board of Education,including the former Junior High School at 11 Engle Street, theLincoln School, and all other school buildings are in full usefor school purposes with the exception of Franklin School, whichwas previously condemned and not currently in use.

3. A survey of the area in the vicinity of the RooseveltSchool in the second ward reveals that there are no availableproperties as suitable for development for school purposes as isthe above-mentioned Edgewater Creche-Rethmore Home property.

4. The above-mentioned Edgewater Creche-Rethmore Homeproperty is the most desirable and economical solution to devel-oping additional school facilities in the Roosevelt School areafor the following reasons:

a. The present Roosevelt School site, which includes3.23 acres, is already below today's state standards for the sizeof an elementary school site.

b. The Creche property is adaptable to development asa school site.

c. The estimated cost to acquire this property bycondemnation, $150,000.00, is within the reasonable ability of theCity to pay.

-2-

d. The size of the Creche property, six acres, plus thepresent Roosevelt School site, brings the total size of the siteclose to the minimum standards recommended by the state for a schoolof the size contemplated by the Board of Education.

e. The location of the Creche property, adjacent to theRoosevelt School site, makes it administratively feasible to operateas a single unit and to share common facilities that would be costlyto duplicate at a more distant location.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE BOARD OF EDUCATION OF THECITY OF ENGLEWOOD, IN THE COUNTY OF BERGEN, NEW JERSEY, that inorder to obtain said land for school purposes mentioned above, ametes and bounds description of which said land is annexed hereto,made a part hereof, and marked Schedule A, the amount of moneyestimated to be necessary under revised statutes of New Jersey R.

The annual financial report of the Englewood Public School Food Service,submitted by the Director, and the May and June monthly reports, were re-ceived and placed on file.

Statements of receipts and expenditures, submitted by the Business Managerof the Interscholastic Athletic Program, were received and placed on fileas follows: Football games - Bergenfield; Rutherford.

The President, after announcing that Dr. Frank H. McCloskey had submittedhis resignation as a member of the Board of Education, read a letter to besent to Dr. McCloskey in recognition of his services.

The following statement was read by the President:

The Board of Education is entrusted with a dual responsibility:first, to operate the public schools in such a way that each childobtains the best possible education, and second: to plan intelli-gently for future educational needs so that school facilities willbe fully adequate to meet the exacting requirements of moderneducation.

In August 1963, after careful and prolonged study of the criticalproblems facing the public school system at that time, the Boardannounced both its plan for a central sixth grade school to be


established during the same year at 11 Engle Street, and its longterm concepts for meeting future educational needs in the bestpossible way.

The central sixth grade plan, now in effect, does not require adetailed description. In its long term thinking, the Board wasconcerned with a group of problems facing the schools. Some ofthese problems were recognized to be acute; others, while notimminent, nevertheless, could not be ignored in any plan for theimmediate future. These problems were as follows:

1 . The urgent and immediate need to renew facilities at the DwightMorrow High School that over the years had become increasinglyobsolete and unsatisfactory; among them, the science labora-tories and industrial arts shops.

2. The obvious desirability of transferring the sixth grade programto the Englewood Junior High School site with the creation ofa middle school. Such an arrangement would require a four-yearprogram at Dwight Morrow High School with sufficient expansionof facilities to house the 9th grade.

The Board is presently negotiating with an outstanding architec-tural firm to prepare the plans for this project. The selectionof an architect follows several months of careful screening ofa number of well-qualified firms. His name will be announcedin the near future. The Dwight Morrow faculty and administra-tion have been preparing the educational requirements of a com-prehensive secondary school program for 1100 pupils in grades9 to 12 in conjunction with their preparations for the forth-coming evaluation by the Middle States Association of Collegesand Secondary Schools in 1966.

3. The increasing obsolescence of Liberty School and the desirabilityof replacing these facilities at a more advantageous location.

A study of the facilities at Liberty School clearly indicatesthat this school should not be considered in any long-rangebuilding use program. Much of the building is of non-fireproofconstruction, the second-floor auditorium presents a serioussafety hazard, the gymnasium does not meet fire safety regula-tions and health building code requirements. Furthermore, theinstructional spaces do not meet the demands of a modern forward-looking educational program. The site of 2.26 acres does notwarrant the substantial investment that would be required tobring this building up to present-day standards of safety, health,and comfort. Already the annual repairs to plumbing, electricallines, and floor covering are substantial; repairs to building,roofing, and chimney projected for the next five to ten yearsrepresent costly investments considering the age of the building(60 plus years).

Board of EducationMinutes, November 9, 1964

4. The need to be in a position to deal more flexibly with problemspresented by a community that may continue to have expandingneighborhoods that are virtually all-Negro. The Board believesthat it is unrealistic to continue to maintain four or fiverelatively small neighborhood schools. In the long run it makesmore sense both educationally and financially to plan for theconsolidation of elementary school facilities at no more thanthree locations, which we have termed "elementary education cen-ters." Such consolidation will reduce significantly, problemsconstantly confronting the Board regarding the need to shiftelementary school boundary lines to achieve equalized class loads.

It should be emphasized that these problems called for a programof renewal, not expansion. They result not from a rapidly ex-panding school population but from three-fold obsolescence ofcertain school structures;

(1) lack of adaptability to modern educational needs and concepts,

(2) lack of conformity to current standards of health, safetyand comfort, and

(3) lack of efficient operation leading to excessive expense inoperation and maintenance.

Moreover, any plan to deal with these problems would not be a newplan, but simply an extension of efforts the Board and the communityhave made over the years to update and upgrade the school plant.These problems have not changed in the last 15 months; if anything,they have been intensified! The Board became aware some monthsago that the Creche-Rethmore property might become unavailable forschool purposes. Since the acquisition of this property was criticalto the Board's plans for consolidating elementary schools into threeeducational centers, it became necessary to prepare a detailedanalysis of the Board's long-range plans in order to support therequest of the Board for the condemnation of the Creche property forschool use. This analysis was requested by the City Council membersof the Board of School Estimate; it was therefore necessarily designedto meet that special requirement.

While the report was prepared under conditions of urgency, the thoughtthat went into it was the product of long study and deliberation bythe staff and Board members. The data contained in the report aresuitable for the type of planning involved.

Accordingly, while the analysis was not prepared in its present formfor public consideration, we believe the report is an adequate ex-pression of the ways in which the Board proposed to meet the problemsconfronting the school system, problems already described.

.


Since there have been many requests that the report be released tothe public, the Board has authorized the Superintendent to do so.It will be noted that in its broad aspects, the recommendationscontained in the report do not differ importantly from those out-lined in the Board's statement of August 1963.

While the Board still holds to the overall concept of how the imme-diate and long term problems facing the school system can best bedealt with, it is evident that that portion of the plan envisioninguse of the Creche property no longer is applicable. Hence, the Boardover the coming weeks and months must re-study that aspect of theplan. It also should be emphasized that we are fortunate to be ableto bring to bear on these problems the resources of a great Universitythrough its Graduate School of Education. The Center for FieldStudies of the Harvard Graduate School of Education is presentlyengaged in a study of future school enrollments and an examination ofthe Board's long range plans for meeting future educational needs.

Mr. John M. Trout, Director of Instruction, gave a presentation on theactivities of his department.
