Board approves five-year memorandum of agreement with teachers' association
Summary
Trustees approved a Memorandum of Agreement with the Toms River Education Association effective July 1, 2025 through June 30, 2030; the union president praised negotiations and scholarships were highlighted by the association during public comment.
The Toms River Regional School District Board on June 4 approved a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) between the district and the Toms River Education Association that will run from July 1, 2025, through June 30, 2030.
The MOA was moved and approved on a roll-call vote during the meeting after the board had invoked the doctrine of necessity (a procedural disclosure required when multiple trustees have potential conflicts). The transcription excerpt did not include contract terms or salary figures; the vote on the MOA itself was recorded as passing by roll call.
Scott Campbell, president of the Toms River Education Association, praised the negotiations in public comment, saying the talks "went very, very well" and noting the union's long history of supporting students through scholarships. Campbell reported the association had given out another $863,000 in scholarships this year and said he expected the group could reach $1 million in the next several years.
