Quinton board approves personnel moves, records HIB reports and recesses to executive session for personnel
Summary
The board approved several personnel actions including a substitute appointment, a cafeteria hire (with a recusal noted), an internal transfer, and an employee leave of absence; the board also recorded HIB incidents and recessed into executive session citing personnel matters.
The Quinton Township Board of Education approved a series of personnel actions at its March 13 meeting and voted to go into executive session to discuss personnel matters.
The minutes record approval of the substitute list including Sylvia Micarelli (nurse) and the hiring of Terra Winkels as a cafeteria worker/playground aide at an annual salary of $15,645 (prorated), contingent upon completion of required paperwork and background checks. The minutes explicitly note a recusal by Board member Lawrence Winkels on the item approving the cafeteria hire. The board also approved the internal transfer of Irma Hernandez from cafeteria aide to a PSD teacher's assistant for the remainder of the 2024–2025 school year at a prorated annual salary of $18,932, and approved a leave of absence request from Avery Malinowski beginning May 2, 2025 with a return date of October 6, 2025, using a combination of sick leave and unpaid leave under FMLA.
The board reviewed and approved Student Safety Data System incident reporting for Period 1 (Sept. 1–Dec. 31, 2024). The board also approved HIB reporting: two incidents for the period Feb. 27–Mar. 12, 2025 (first reading) and three incidents for Jan. 23–Feb. 26, 2025 (second reading), as required by NJDOE procedures.
Later in the meeting the board adopted a resolution to enter executive session at 8:02 p.m. citing N.J.S.A. exemptions and indicating "personnel matters" as the reason for closure; the minutes estimate the session at 90 minutes. The minutes state the public portion resumed at 9:20 p.m., but they also record an adjournment time of 9:03 p.m. (the minutes contain this chronological inconsistency).
