Board reviews purchasing items, asks about social-worker contract and location-based billing
Summary
Board members questioned purchasing-line items including a roughly $82,000 social-worker services contract described as contracted agency services and a 23-chair beanbag purchase; members clarified that some district contracts are broken out by location.
During the budget and finance portion of the meeting board members reviewed purchasing items and asked for clarifications about contract details and line-item billing.
A board member asked whether social‑worker services listed as professional educational services were billed for the year or per invoice; a respondent confirmed the item is a contracted, agency hire and said the line item was for about $82,000. Board members also confirmed that purchases such as beanbag chairs were charged by location (the district contract is broken up by site); the chair confirmed 23 chairs were purchased at Westover.
Board members reviewed district sponsorships and rentals (the RWJB Arena rental to the Shore Conference for $4,000 was mentioned) and reported sponsorship revenue totals: month‑to‑date $12,571 and year‑to‑date $53,184. Public comment was deferred to the end of committee meetings.
