The board convened in executive session at 6:20 p.m. to discuss contract matters (nonrepresented employees), negotiations with the BHTA, and individual employee contract matters. After the executive session the board opened the public meeting and approved the evening’s agenda by voice vote.

The board approved a consent agenda that the superintendent described as including personnel (item 6.1), CSE/sub‑CSE/CPSE recommendations (7.1) and business items (8.1). The consent agenda vote followed a motion and second and was approved by voice. The superintendent announced that the board had approved, as part of personnel, the acceptance of the resignation of Evan Horowitz \"for the purpose of retirement.\" (The personnel items were approved as part of the consent agenda — the board did not take separate roll-call votes on individual personnel items in the public record.)

On policy matters the board approved five items on second reading. The policies recorded in the meeting packet and read into the record were listed as: 5100 (Comprehensive attendance policy), 5710 (School safety and educational climate), 8130 (School safety plans and teams), 9140.1 (Staff complaints and grievances), and regulation 9140.1r (Staff complaints and grievances regulation). The policy committee was thanked; a single motion to approve all five second reads passed by voice vote.

The board approved adoption of two textbooks to support the district’s academic intervention supports in mathematics: Bridges (recommended for primary grades, primarily K–2 intervention) and Do The Math K–5 (recommended primarily for grades 3–5 intervention). The presenter reported piloting of both programs and cited pre/post assessment improvements in pilot classrooms; the board voted to adopt both by voice.

The board also approved the minutes from the May 20, 2025 meeting and then adjourned the meeting by voice vote.

Votes in the public record were taken by motion, second and voice; the record shows motions carried with \"All in favor\" responses but no roll-call tallies were posted in the transcript excerpts.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Board of Education Meeting - June 3, 2025","oneSentenceSummary","The Byram Hills Central School District Board of Education held an executive session at 6:20 p.m. and then approved the meeting agenda, a consent agenda including personnel items, five policies on second reading and two math-intervention textbooks.","taxTitle","BYRAM HILLS CENTRAL SCHOOL DISTRICT, School Districts, New York","taxId",42863,"location","New York","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":77,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":78,"_41":79,"_43":80,"_45":81,"_47":82,"_49":83,"_51":84,"_53":85,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":86,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":87,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6533848,"Byram Hills students honored for winning Westchester County mock trial; coach and attorney mentor recognized",310,270000,580000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3655973-f21adf947f00dcf172781eebd3e24463&start=270&end=580","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3655973-f21adf947f00dcf172781eebd3e24463/thumbnail_270000.jpg","/articles/6533848/New-York/Byram-Hills-students-honored-for-winning-Westchester-County-mock-trial-coach-and-attorney-mentor-recognized","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6533848-e98eb31009319e61014b24eb33656a9d/orig.mp4?Expires=1773665491&Signature=T--0y8suuc7TLlk-No8tlcrFDCpgzkV~x05eFyvxzWTtz7TfUwKFIyMACDAj0Gyzg7CEGOOOlx65PEix1CSsLECD7THRO8Ov3fFbuTOe~PHk6HSeJbDz~uMh0tK4RghWCbed62YTL2LuMxfQFUFrlX01H1TfM~TGSgPFvG4cLjESJyb-9opVAwlW91Se8nDrfhtLfHb1yDXzvY95Umgx5yWvn3UOU5S-24l-dI~y~ARBSlvkgLIDTqf41cp~1oc4TzSZ7-HwOhWY9~RXx6MMkBNy6GU0-q2B01TqXwqv-sU~ah5Z3JWq3q3M8IEHfyVjZYBPKjRHowPVNW~t3wvkhA__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Byram Hills Board of Education recognized the Westchester County Bar Association 2025 mock trial champions and invited team members and coaches to the dais for acknowledgment.

Board members noted the team’s consecutive-year success and advancement to regionals. A coach present at the meeting described the team’s extensive preparation—practicing multiple times per week, rehearsing witnesses and researching case law—and noted the team scored a perfect score in the county finals, which the coach said was a first for Byram Hills.

Coach/teacher remarks singled out nine students as primary competitors and named additional contributors. The presenter listed student participants (examples named in the remarks included Leah Stein, Chloe Fenster, Yingying Chen, Ian Klugman, Emily Battaglia, Amelia Will Petersen, Andrew Levy, Adrianna Zwojczyk and Aaron Stein) and praised the attorneys and student leaders. The board also called forward attorney coach Elliot Schuman and presented him with a plaque in appreciation of his long-term coaching and recent collegiate coaching achievements.

The board and superintendent commended the students and coaches for their preparation and community representation. Team members and coaches were invited to pose for photographs and the board encouraged continued coverage of their success on district social media.","The board recognized the Byram Hills mock trial team for winning the Westchester County Bar Association 2025 competition and advancing to regionals; coaches and student contributors were acknowledged.",{"_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},6533854,"Byram Hills recognizes 25 teachers granted tenure in 2025",1121,977000,2098000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3655973-f21adf947f00dcf172781eebd3e24463&start=977&end=2098","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3655973-f21adf947f00dcf172781eebd3e24463/thumbnail_977000.jpg","/articles/6533854/New-York/Byram-Hills-recognizes-25-teachers-granted-tenure-in-2025","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6533854-c5665d06e9559e89cc671b1e1c98e3f0/orig.mp4?Expires=1773665492&Signature=GiSkmTcT6C-CAkpU9p26h3i8MGNQGBEgc6VSOXdlz9LiFVdFSe0W8osc0~Lym78L7LxKJB~wVRbo9CpvmZ201DQUJ07Dd89Jz23Zw4Qi8AtU~2u~GlM3PzsUdF3oR2lGQkeLG4ovvOgJc2JqPWGneg-0SkxZyWKJMTXUvOqFGxgnLk3AZQE8Kx2kfFTbj8TGdPYSFw97lZRLCjzYyUk5Q14A31gfhmB6TzxG9gR~j3uGBsMcSuUerU8I-nUTm2nuT9qYB59CPAkkedF5C7yoRSkBfEpjkmBFhV3DTVLnXwptS79rGNuhGuVnDQU0eIvhkwBeF~deQWGqvo6ZZlfa6w__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Byram Hills Central School District publicly recognized 25 educators granted tenure in 2025 and invited them to the front of the board room for photos and remarks.

Superintendent Dr. Jen Lamia praised the tenure recipients for their classroom work and described the tenure process as a sustained collaboration with building principals and department chairs. She said tenure represents a commitment to \"give back to colleagues and shape the next generation of children,\" and introduced the list of recipients across the district’s four buildings: Coleman Hill, Wampus, HCC and Byram Hills High School.

The district listed 25 tenure recipients in the meeting program. Superintendent Lamia read names by school and noted candidates at Coleman Hill, Wampus, HCC and the high school; examples announced included Lauren Azenberg, Shannon Daley, Stephanie DePalma, Michael McHale, Nicole Perjean, Alyssa Leahy, Lindsey McHale, Leah Weckerly, Marissa Cuomo, Jen Fuenzalida and others. The superintendent also noted a districtwide fine arts recipient and several district-level staff who received tenure.

The superintendent said the board had already approved the tenures as part of the consent agenda personnel item earlier in the meeting. The district’s media and communications lead, Brian Melso, presented a short visual tribute highlighting recipients in their classroom settings. Board members, the superintendent and audience members applauded the tenure recipients; the superintendent invited them for a staged photograph after the recognition.

The public record shows that the tenures were included in the personnel consent item approved by the board during the meeting.","Superintendent Dr. Jen Lamia and the board publicly recognized 25 educators who received tenure in 2025; the approvals were reflected in the personnel consent agenda.","actionData","errors"]
