Summary

At the June 2026 meeting the board recessed into and returned from executive session, approved minutes (with two abstentions), took a roll‑call vote to approve a bundle of business items including personnel, contracts and capital project bids, and acknowledged a large alumni donation for field projects.

The Mountain Lakes Board recorded several formal actions during its June 2026 meeting.

Executive session: The board voted to recess into executive session citing NJSA 10:4‑12 (personnel/student discipline/legal matters) with an estimated duration of 60 minutes; motion was moved and seconded and approved by the board.

Approval of minutes: The board moved to approve regular and executive session minutes from May 11; the motion was seconded and passed with two recorded abstentions (Doctor Shatty and Ms. Kulkarni).

Business agenda: The board then heard the business administrator's agenda, which included presentation of bills, budget transfer reports, certified tuition rates, reserve 'not to exceed' adjustments for 2026–27, professional services and capital projects (security vestibules, window replacement and a phone system overhaul). The full slate of business, personnel and policy items was put forward, and a roll‑call vote recorded unanimous support from the members present for the bundle of approvals.

Donations and grants: The board acknowledged a major donation from the Mountain Lakes Alumni Association and other community groups to support field projects (including a Wilkinsfield scoreboard and landscaping). As discussed in committee, the donation totals were cited by a board member as "over a $100,000," and the board moved forward with the recommended approvals tied to those projects.

Adjournment: The meeting concluded with a communication and a motion to adjourn at 9:20 p.m.
