Public hearing closes on Anti-Bullying Bill of Rights self-assessment; district average 73 of 78
Summary
Assistant Superintendent Joseph Ugoliero presented the district's annual Anti-Bullying Bill of Rights self-assessment, reporting school scores (NPHS 70/78, NPMS 75/78, Salt Brook 71/78, Allen W. Roberts 76/78) and a district average of 73. The board closed the public hearing with no public comment on the item.
Joseph Ugoliero, assistant superintendent of educational services, presented the New Providence School District's annual self-assessment required by the Anti-Bullying Bill of Rights and described the state-issued rubric the district uses.
Ugoliero said the rubric measures eight core elements: programs and approaches; training on the board-approved policy and procedures; staff instruction and training; curriculum and instruction on related information and skills; HIB personnel; school-level HIB incident reporting procedures; HIB investigation procedures; and HIB reporting. He said each school's safety and climate team rated specific indicators and the maximum possible score is 78 points.
Ugoliero reported the 2024'025 self-assessment scores as follows: New Providence High School, 70 out of 78; New Providence Middle School, 75 out of 78; Salt Brook Elementary School, 71 out of 78; Allen W. Roberts Elementary School, 76 out of 78. He said those results produce a district average of 73 out of 78.
Citing common improvement areas across schools, Ugoliero said the district will continue work with school safety and climate teams on identifying patterns of HIB and using that data to inform programming and training. He described focusing on developing team skills and training them on best practices for pattern identification and data-driven planning.
The board chair declared the public hearing on the district's 2024'025 self-assessment closed; there was no public comment on this item during the meeting.
