Wayne board ratifies one-year union agreements, rejects before/after-care proposals and affirms HIB finding
Summary
At its Jan. 16 meeting the board added and approved several agenda items: affirmation of an HIB determination, rejection of all before/after-care RFP proposals under N.J.S.A. 18A:18-22, and one-year memorandum-of-agreement extensions with Teamsters Local 11 and the Wayne Professionals Association (Q4 carried with one abstention).
The Wayne Board of Education on Jan. 16 added and approved several formal agenda items, including an affirmation of an HIB determination, the rejection of all proposals for before-and-after-school care services, and one-year extensions of collective-bargaining agreements with two employee groups.
The board read a resolution to affirm the superintendent’s decision on HIB case number 4 52024 d225, citing the appeal process required under N.J.S.A. 18A:37-15(b)(6)(e). The board also read a resolution citing N.J.S.A. 18A:18-22 to reject all proposals submitted in response to the district’s RFP for before-and-after-school care, with administrators explaining the selection committee evaluated six proposals and determined the board may reject proposals that exceed the district’s appropriation.
Two memorandum-of-agreement items were placed on the agenda and ratified: a one-year extension with Teamsters Local 11 (July 1, 2025–June 30, 2026) and a one-year extension with the Wayne Professionals Association for the same period. The record shows the board authorized the president to execute the memoranda "as discussed in executive session."
A roll-call vote on the revised agenda and these additions was recorded in the meeting minutes. The transcript indicates the motions carried; on Q4 (the Wayne Professionals Association memorandum) a board member identified as Mr. Pavlac recorded an abstention. The transcript does not supply full mover/second text for each motion in the public record.
