Mr. Ramsey, identified by the chair as the district's presenter, delivered the Hammonton School District's student-safety report covering Sept. 1–Dec. 31, 2025.
The report followed Department of Education guidance requiring twice-yearly reports to boards and included counts for violence (fights, assaults, threats), vandalism, substances, weapons, confirmed and alleged harassment/intimidation/bullying (HIB), and other incidents that resulted in half-day or longer in-school suspensions. The Early Childhood Education Center recorded zeros across violence, vandalism, substances and weapons and had two alleged HIBs. DeMaurice Soy Elementary reported two "other" incidents and otherwise zeros for the listed categories.

Districtwide totals were presented alongside a student population figure of roughly 3,300 students.
"So we have a lot of amazing kids that come to the Hammonton School District doing the right thing each and every day," Mr. Ramsey said while presenting the totals and thanking families and staff for their support.
