Board approves routine resolutions, curriculum and personnel slate; honors retiring staff
Summary
The Colts Neck Board of Education unanimously approved action items including a resolution recognizing School Board Recognition Month, curriculum and finance items, and personnel actions that included retirements of two long-serving staff members.
The Colts Neck Township Board of Education approved multiple consent and action items during its Jan. 21 meeting, including a resolution recognizing January 2026 as School Board Recognition Month and a slate of curriculum, finance and personnel actions.
The board read a formal resolution noting the role of local school boards in New Jersey and unanimously approved action items one through three on a roll-call vote. Curriculum and instruction items one and two passed on roll call as moved and seconded. Finance items one through three also passed; Mr. Scales recused himself on finance item three as recorded in the roll call.
The personnel slate (items 1–14) was approved and included acknowledgments of two retirements called out by Superintendent Dr. Garvey: Teresa Terry, a school nurse at Cedar Drive Middle School with 14 years of service, and Marjorie McGuire with 25 years of service. The superintendent and board members thanked the retirees for their years of service.
Roll-call votes recorded the following board members as voting 'yes' on multiple items: Mrs. Cameron, Mrs. Harowitz, Mr. Rico, Mr. Ragnetta (recorded as Mr. Regetta/Ragnetta in the transcript), Mr. Scales, Mr. Scarpa, Mrs. Vulpi, Mr. Walsh and Mr. Wickberg. Where the transcript recorded a recusal, the article notes it; mover and seconder names for motions were not provided in the record.
The board passed the motions by roll call and adjourned after several new-business items and reports.
