John Street, a representative of the NJEA, told the board, \"I'm really happy we did not end up filing the impasse paperwork because I am thrilled ... that we have a memorandum of agreement.\" The union asked the board and administration to prepare for ratification of the agreement.

Multiple speakers at the public-participation portion thanked negotiators from both sides and described the deal as the product of a collaborative process. Frank Agliardo, a parent and community member, and Nick Agolia, who identified a Roselle Park address, both publicly thanked Superintendent Goyce, board negotiators and school staff for completing the talks.

Board President Dr. Brittany Kirkland and other board members acknowledged the work of the negotiation committee and expressed appreciation for district staff and teachers. At least one board member noted the agreement was a forward step and that ratification and future contract years remain to be negotiated.

The meeting record shows no formal ratification vote by the board or the union membership took place during the public session. In public remarks, union representatives said the next step would be preparation for ratification. No financial or term details of the memorandum were read into the public record during the meeting; the transcript and agenda referenced the existence of a memorandum of agreement but did not include the MOA text or specific contract language for public review at the meeting.

Speakers at the meeting also linked the agreement to recent local remembrance: a tree-planting in honor of Bernadine Schultz, a longtime negotiation chair, was mentioned publicly in the same timeframe as the agreement, and some speakers said that timing was meaningful to the community.

The board did not take a formal vote on the memorandum at this meeting. Any formal approvals, ratification votes or contract summaries should be expected in a future board meeting or in ratification materials distributed to union members.","Representatives of the New Jersey Education Association and Roselle Park school officials said negotiators reached a memorandum of agreement to settle contract talks; the agreement will proceed to ratification and was the subject of multiple public acknowledgments and thanks at the board meeting.",{"_33":89,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":90,"_41":91,"_43":92,"_45":93,"_47":94,"_49":95,"_51":96,"_53":97,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":98,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":99,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6547698,"Board approves field trips to sensory-friendly park after parents and specialists pushed for inclusive use",68,8282000,8350000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3410558-84dce3b5fa69e5b84db25b146469c526&start=8282&end=8350","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3410558-84dce3b5fa69e5b84db25b146469c526/thumbnail_8282000.jpg","/articles/6547698/New-Jersey/Board-approves-field-trips-to-sensory-friendly-park-after-parents-and-specialists-pushed-for-inclusive-use","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6547698-ee570170cbd2269888de927400b1e8b8/orig.mp4?Expires=1771176790&Signature=UF0nE1fAmNHfoBJkLexFFpMxPnhtA-xVkx3PGrwzNIbIEYP5t2AavQcV7PPGiedgg~pEplid-umxQ98xNk7ebtmKXTODvDn7ZH015jlgUOGoPFxPEUQ19cUi8KAmPiO-~880kXBueGgSYYYXqtJVHyoDS3r30aSQMeNpZsZ5RmUf-NcdevdF1~UQ~FuoVmwU4MwKTqKzuq-r5jF16iVIhETj8htbIY~LG96LrAkenMZHJM4z7Qa9NGbLC5Oh5wkH8rdSAQqBvD1uDjlw60liRnAVTGE02ZYKjeK9Pn37kcrrwCDkmrW0CFCxVzMvYBQB0K6otWH9UhRevh-pAEMBbA__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Roselle Park Board of Education approved field-trip items that will allow students to visit the sensory-friendly park on Fatute Avenue in front of Aldine Elementary School.

Jackie Garcia, a Roselle Park resident and member of the district's special-education parents advisory group, told the board the proposals reflect months of community coordination. \"By integrating field trips to the sensory friendly park, we are giving our students the chance to experience inclusion in action,\" Garcia said.

The board considered agenda items 19 (standard field trips) and 20 (field-trip approval) as part of the education section and approved the education section in a roll-call vote. President Dr. Brittany Kirkland registered an abstention on item 19; other board members voted in favor (see \"Votes at a glance\").

Garcia described the work that preceded the vote: a survey by the Bridal Parks CPAC group showing parental support, planning with the district's director of special services (named in public comment as Miss Gil Gallen), collaboration with occupational therapists and early-childhood professionals and involvement from the Aldine Elementary PTO and families across the district. \"Parents made it clear that they didn't want the space removed. They simply wanted a better understanding of its purpose and potential,\" Garcia said.

Board documents provided in the meeting agenda list items 19 and 20 under the education section along with several other approvals; the vote on the education section carried with one abstention recorded for item 19. The agenda did not specify additional operational details (transportation, chaperone ratios, or exact dates for the trips) in the public portion of the meeting.

The public comment and staff remarks framed the field-trip approvals as part of a larger effort to use the sensory park for inclusive programs and therapist-led activities. The district did not present a separate memorandum of agreement or contract for partner services at the meeting.

The board meeting began with an executive session that the board said would last about two hours for personnel, attorney-client and student matters; the minutes of that executive session will be released when the board determines the reason for confidentiality has ended.

Looking ahead, the district will implement the approved field trips under standard district procedures for trips and parental permissions; the agenda did not list a start date. The board may provide further operational details at a subsequent meeting or through school communications.","The Roselle Park Board of Education approved agenda items 19 and 20, which authorize field trips to a sensory-friendly park in front of Aldine Elementary School. Parents, special-education advocates and district staff described months of coordination to make the park accessible and to use it for inclusive programming.","actionData","errors"]
