Monthly expenditures (action items 6.1–6.4) were moved on the superintendent’s recommendation and approved by roll call. The transcript records Doctor Giordano abstaining on one purchase order (listed as PO 7435 under item 6.1) and voting yes on the remaining expenditures; all other members present voted yes. The motion passed.

Personnel actions (7.1–7.19) were approved by roll call after a motion to approve the slate. The transcript records two recorded abstentions during the personnel vote: Mrs. Narcisse abstained where she was listed for personal development under item 7.1, and Mrs. O'Neil abstained on items related to Christian Humphrey. All other members present voted yes and the motion carried.

Curriculum and technology items (8.1–8.7) were approved by roll call with all recorded members voting yes. Finance and operations items (9.1–9.3) were approved by roll call; board members thanked the SHSP for a donation (the Gaga pit) that was noted under finance.

Administrative items (10.1–10.11) were considered; the board discussed policy 9163 and some members asked to revisit language at a later policy meeting but voted to approve now so the policy could be in place for spring sports. The board then moved to add item 10.12, a residency resolution concerning two students, and voted to approve administrative items 10.1–10.12 by roll call. That added resolution orders disenrollment and tuition assessment for two students and is described in a separate item in this coverage.

Where recorded, roll-call tallies were entered into the meeting record. The meeting transcript shows the motions were made on the superintendent’s recommendation and passed by roll call; where abstentions occurred they were recorded by name. No votes on ordinances or contracts requiring second readings were recorded in this portion of the agenda.

Summary of formal votes on grouped action items (as recorded in the meeting transcript):
- Expenditures (6.1–6.4): Approved. Recorded: 9 yes, 0 no, 1 abstention (Doctor Giordano on PO 7435).
- Personnel (7.1–7.19): Approved. Recorded: 7 yes, 0 no, 2 abstentions (Mrs. Narcisse and Mrs. O'Neil as noted).
- Curriculum & Technology (8.1–8.7): Approved. Recorded: 9 yes, 0 no, 0 abstain.
- Finance & Operations (9.1–9.3): Approved. Recorded: 9 yes, 0 no, 0 abstain.
- Administrative (10.1–10.12, including added 10.12 residency resolution): Approved. Recorded: 9 yes, 0 no, 0 abstain.

The transcript does not record detailed votes by roll for every single sub-item inside grouped motions; where specific abstentions were mentioned in the record those are reported above. Members noted an intention to revisit policy 9163 language at the next policy meeting but approved it for immediate implementation for spring sports.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Board of Education Meeting 3/24/25","oneSentenceSummary","During its March meeting the Mount Olive board approved grouped action items covering monthly expenditures, personnel, curriculum and policies, and added and approved a residency resolution; several abstentions were recorded on specific personnel and expenditure items.","taxTitle","Mount Olive Township School District, School Districts, New Jersey","taxId",55585,"location","New Jersey","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":77,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":78,"_41":79,"_43":80,"_45":46,"_47":81,"_49":82,"_51":83,"_53":84,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":85,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":86,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6625656,"Board approves residency finding, orders disenrollment and tuition assessment for two students",517,4793000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2756549-93396b1568e1d1ce0ac66fcf26965cc6&start=4793&end=5310","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2756549-93396b1568e1d1ce0ac66fcf26965cc6/thumbnail_4793000.jpg","/articles/6625656/New-Jersey/Board-approves-residency-finding-orders-disenrollment-and-tuition-assessment-for-two-students","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6625656-0dae0fd7da95339357d8b03f80fc7e4c/orig.mp4?Expires=1771158655&Signature=ehjkWpsp4UWcPIpwDOyq8LrG7rg79y5O7QrCckX4eJrS8rm~0SxtXg9I3HhU3LEklnv1z4d5hgfImc-iGAfj4h2FP9-U1tl6upqSARYUUsbzW8dqCy9niQA1s~TAKXAIcKvNvcbQVNGUvv4SmijgcC4LMLFF4ClGs4bacgYzbyjd50eIwhiY0~CiX90if5eY2OfWF4X6I7rcNDeAzIxFnVN8SR3ilHO-WiHtYVIKS~mvf6ZCCdY1Jl-w-pobiW0SguLaIOWGh2P8JTRQZ9GuwqyCnJnR~n1LdOI6TyA2KgouUqzh1z5qJ7dVwouolEZXc1ECaKqNOYMj2vO15QAfYQ__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Mount Olive Township School District Board of Education on March 25 added and approved a resolution finding two students not domiciled in the district during the 2024–25 school year, ordering their disenrollment and assessing tuition, the board announced in a routine administrative action.

The added item, labeled in the agenda as a residency hearing resolution for student numbers 213500 and 213502, reported that a residency committee held a hearing on March 19, 2025. The resolution says the committee considered proofs and testimony presented by the parents and findings from a residency investigation conducted by the board’s director of security, and concluded the students were not domiciled in Mount Olive for 2024–25.

The board’s resolution ordered the students disenrolled and assessed tuition for the students in the amount of $3,466.97 (per student as stated in the resolution). The resolution also directed that written notice of the decision and of the family’s rights to contest the decision before the Commissioner of Education be served upon the parents “as required by law.”

The residency resolution was added to the agenda after the superintendent’s report and prior to the board’s approval of administrative items. Board members moved to add item 10.12, then voted as part of approving administrative items 10.1–10.12 by roll call; the recorded roll call in the meeting transcript shows unanimous recorded votes of the members present on that set of administrative items.

The resolution text on the record described the recommendation as made by the board’s residency committee and based on an investigation by the director of security and the parents’ admissions. The motion and final vote were taken during the administrative action portion of the agenda; the transcript does not record any public comments on this specific residency decision during the meeting.

The resolution specifies that parents have the right to contest the board’s decision before the Commissioner of Education; the transcript copies the resolution language that such notice will be served “as required by law.” The board did not cite a specific statute or local policy in the meeting transcript when reading the resolution.","The Mount Olive Board approved a residency committee recommendation that two students are not domiciled in the district for the 2024-25 school year, ordered disenrollment, and assessed tuition totaling $3,466.97 per student; parents were notified of appeal rights to the commissioner of education.",{"_33":88,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":89,"_41":90,"_43":91,"_45":92,"_47":93,"_49":94,"_51":95,"_53":96,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":97,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":98,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6625661,"Mount Olive honors winter athletes and coaches at board meeting",1519,362000,1881000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2756549-93396b1568e1d1ce0ac66fcf26965cc6&start=362&end=1881","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2756549-93396b1568e1d1ce0ac66fcf26965cc6/thumbnail_362000.jpg","/articles/6625661/New-Jersey/Mount-Olive-honors-winter-athletes-and-coaches-at-board-meeting","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6625661-31199ec09731682df5f2045be3339932/orig.mp4?Expires=1771158655&Signature=Z95yXWSxN~pNVhqCrfSaI5n6gK6VVbauXQWYNa9R22NXtt2Jubyqp08BHGDbScA56sdX66sfePmlS7muQXbRkBzgUz5AqhfyZDgoINXaOgmt1J1Vo8nRNjU8gaPIbQhmDXn2-iBXFwErZRecRfsbl9-rJ9J66Ep573cLtiADFV-ZAsb506sbMbWe9HAGmfPNTtNlh6QbnB1~ltQTAO-aQOtyWSSTgu5naesEyVYc-LnC4FqqVhu2OAR-LIi6Z8Z9xixxv-jN9ZrRq2LFzpvuBpQycwQFb~w8xGIIuMkblBvh9h3CzIkl~AJxeqLQpUXI0IHo-qGcBXKc9qqW1NFKlQ__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Mount Olive Township School District Board of Education on March 25 recognized winter-season athletes, coaches and staff, highlighting state qualifiers and national competitors across multiple sports and announcing that Athletic Director Colleen Souffle earned national certification.

Board members opened the superintendent’s report by inviting Colleen Souffle to lead the athletics presentation. Souffle and coaches reviewed team and individual accomplishments from wrestling, track and field, swimming, bowling, unified bowling and other winter sports, and invited athletes onto the stage for certificates and remarks.

Kevin Person, the boys head track and field coach, described junior Jason Papafio Kessi as a top sprinter and a high jumper who cleared 6 feet 2 inches this season and won the North Jersey 1, Group 3 sectional high-jump championship. Person said Mount Olive had seven athletes qualify for nationals in various events, naming Noah Pizzarusso, Jasmine LaRosa, Braden Shanga and the 4x400 relay of Matt Evans, Bryce David, Anthony Murray and Joseph Williams.

Coaches for unified bowling and Special Olympics noted two athletes, Christian Pastuche and Nacia Ryan, won gold at the regional competition and advanced to the Special Olympics New Jersey state championship scheduled for April 6 at Valero Lanes. Coach remarks invited the two athletes to receive certificates.

Melissa Groszenstein, head girls swim coach, praised senior Danielle Keb Saba for breaking the 100 backstroke record and setting a new mark in the 200 IM, calling her “the soul of our team” and the squad’s MVP. Bowling coach highlighted Tegan Mendel as the Morris County champion and recognized captains Amber Casaba and Landon Taylor.

Wrestling coach Sean Smythe credited overnight trips approved by the board with increased exposure for athletes and said Mount Olive had multiple wrestlers competing at the Division I level. Smythe said the program sent 11 athletes to Atlantic City for state competition, a school record for public schools, and noted the team’s district, county and sectional titles across recent years.

Jeremy Mayer, the girls wrestling head coach, said the girls program was in its second year as a separate varsity program, grew participation by 50 percent this season, and finished 9-3. He highlighted Molly Smythe, who finished the season 24-7, placed third at the North 1 regional tournament, qualified for the state tournament and finished seventh at the state meet.

The board offered congratulations; members commended athletes’ character, the role of families and the value of extracurricular experiences. The board then recessed for 15 minutes following the presentation.

Mount Olive also used the agenda to acknowledge Colleen Souffle’s certification by the National Interscholastic Athletic Administrators Association; the board and speakers described the certification process as a rigorous professional evaluation.

The recognitions and remarks were part of the superintendent’s report and did not require a vote. No formal policy changes or funding decisions were made during the presentation.","Mount Olive Township School District board of education recognized winter-sport teams and individual athletes — including state qualifiers and national competitors — and celebrated Athletic Director Colleen Souffle's national certification.","actionData","errors"]
