Board members and administrators praised district staff for a rapid response to a recent incident at the Roseland campus, commending the speed of evacuation, bus deployment and student care, and called for continued planning for scenarios in which a school campus becomes unusable.

Board member Joey (Mister Joey) told the board that administration "took that challenge and did it very well" and commended Superintendent Melissa Stilley and her team for handling the situation professionally. Another board member, Mister Anthony, said he was impressed by the fast action: "I think our response was better than any other governmental entity," and described live public updates from administration.

Nut Graf: The remarks moved the board from praise to planning. Members described discussions about contingency plans — including where students would be educated if a campus were inaccessible for days or longer — and asked administration to continue refining continuity plans for every campus.

Administrators said buses were quickly redirected and area managers communicated with families through the Edulog system; board members urged that continuity planning consider long‑term displacements as well as short‑term evacuations. The board also asked for ongoing after‑action review and planning to ensure every student has a place to learn if a campus is out of service.

Ending: Board members asked for ongoing contingency planning and for administration to report back on how to place students if long‑term campus displacement occurs.
