The Board has communicated its strong interest in acquiring the Creche property to the Mayor and has held a preliminary discussion on this urgent matter with Councilmanic members of the Board of School Estimate. Recently, in response to its inquiry, the Board of Education received a letter from the President of the Common Council expressing the Council's desire to meet with the Board of Education in the early fall to explore such a program in an effort to come to an understanding and agreement. The letter indicated that "when the Board of School Estimate is satisfied that proper development of the public school system necessitates the purchase of additional land to enable it to implement a plan acceptable to the people of Englewood, steps would be taken to purchase that or comparable property."

A letter, dated September 28, 1964, mas received from NTS. John T. Spruill formally requesting free transportation for her two children and "for all children of tender age", and more specifically those children who previousl attended the Lincoln School. A letter, dated October Q, 1964, was received from the President of the Dwight Morrow High School P. T. A. containing a resolution which they have adopted requesting "that the Board of Education make known immediately what proposals it has submitted to the Board of School Estimate and the City Council, and that such proposals be made a matter of public record on Monday, October 12th, in time for the October 20, 1964, meeting of the City Council." A communication was received from the Executive Council of the Engle Street School P. T. A. urging that the Common Council of Englewood initiate proceedings to obtain the Edgewater Creche-Rethmore property for school expansion. A telegram was received from the Executive Committee of the Liberty School P. T. A. urging the acquisition of the Creche property. On motion made, seconded and carried, Mrs. Ruth Wallace, having satisfactorily completed the probationary period, was appointed Secretary to the Superintendent for the balance of the 1964-65 school year. On motion made, seconded and carried, the following resolution was unanimously adopted: WHEREAS, the Board of Education of the City of Englewood, Bergen County, New Jersey, has decided that it is necessary to raise money for the purchase of a tract of land located on Broad Avenue, Englewood, New Jersey, which property was formerly owned by Edgewater Creche and Rethmore Home, and which property is opposite Roosevelt School, for school purposes, for the following reasons: 1. There is a serious condition of over-crowding at Roosevelt School. The enrollment as of October 1, 1964 is four hundred and four (404) children in Kindergarten and grades 1 through 5. Studies of the school plant show that the Roosevelt School has a functional operating capacity of 336 children. 2. Other school facilities of the Board of Education, including the former Junior High School at 11 Engle Street, the Lincoln School, and all other school buildings are in full use for school purposes with the exception of Franklin School, which was previously condemned and not currently in use. 3. A survey of the area in the vicinity of the Roosevelt School in the second ward reveals that there are no available properties as suitable for development for school purposes as is the above-mentioned Edgewater Creche-Rethmore Home property.
Board of Education minutes, October 12, 1964 4. The above-mentioned Edgewater Creche-Rethmore Home property is the most desirable and economical solution to developing additional school facilities in the Roosevelt School area for the following reasons: a. The present Roosevelt School site, which includes 3.28 acres, is already below today's state standards for the size of an elementary school site. b. The Creche property is adaptable to development as a school site. c. The estimated cost to acquire this property by condemnation, $150,000.00, is within the reasonable ability of the City to pay. d. The size of the Creche property, six acres, plus the present Roosevelt School site, brings the total size of the site close to the minimum standards recommended by the state for a school of the size contemplated by the Board of Education. e. The location of the Creche property, adjacent to the Roosevelt School site, makes it administratively feasible to operate as a single unit and to share common facilities that would be costly to duplicate at a more distant location. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE BOARD OF EDUCATION OF THE CITY OF ENGLEWOOD, IN THE COUNTY OF BERGEN, NEW JERSEY, that in order to obtain said land for school purposes mentioned above, a metes and bounds description of which said land is annexed hereto, made a part hereof, and marked Schedule A, the amount of money estimated to be necessary under revised statutes of New Jersey R. S. 18:6-59 to obtain title to said land is $150,000.00, and said estimated sum of 3150,000.00 takes in the estimated cost of acquiring the land by condemnation, and BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Secretary of this Board be and she is hereby authorized and directed to prepare and deliver to each member of the Board of School Estimate of the City of Englewood, in the County of Bergen, New Jersey, a copy of this resolution duly certified by the President and Secretary of this Board as and for a statement of the amount of money estimated by this Board to be necessary for the school purposes hereinabove set forth. SCHEDULE A All that lot, tract or parcel of land and premises, hereinafter particularly described, situate, lying and being in the City of Englewood in the County of Bergen and State of New Jersey, bounded and described as follows:

BOARD OF SCHOOL ESTIMATE Englewood, New Jersey A meeting of the Board of School Estimate was held in the Municipal Building, Englewood, New Jersey, on Monday, October 19, 1964. Members in attendance were Mayor Francis J. Donovan and Messrs. Warren L. Lewis, 0. Carlysle McCandless, Frank H. McCloskey, and William D. Ticknor, Jr. Mrs. Winifred R. Schambera, Secretary, was present. Mayor Donovan called the meeting to order at 8:00 p. m., and, on roll call, all present acknowledged having received a copy of a Resolution from the Board of Education together with a call for the meeting. Mayor Donovan read the following statement: This is a public meeting of the Board of School Estimate. It is not a public hearing at which residents are permitted to express their views for or against the subject before the Board of School Estimate. There is no legal requirement that the Board of School Estimate hold a public hearing on matters of this kind. We are here to act on a request of the Board of Education. I received a copy of the Board of Education's resolution of October 12th, as required by law, on October 15th, along with a statement that under the regulations of the State Board of Education a meeting of the Board of School Estimate must be called by the Mayor within five days. Accordingly it was impossible to place a notice of the meeting in the Press-Journal, but a notice was published at my request in "The Record" on Saturday, October 17th. The Board of School Estimate is fully aware of the Board of Education's request that the Creche property be purchased, and the reasons therefore. We have also received petitions, telegrams and letters for and against the purchase, all of which will be noted at this meeting. I am, therefore, ruling that no statements from the audience will be accepted at this meeting. The following resolution received from the Board of Education was read by the Secretary: WHEREAS, the Board of Education of the City of Englewood, Bergen County, New Jersey, has decided that it is necessary to raise money for the purchase of a tract of land located on Broad Avenue, Englewood, New Jersey, which property was formerly owned by Edgewater Creche and Rethmore Home, and which property is opposite Roosevelt School, for school purposes, for the following reasons:
Board of School Estimate Minutes, October 19, 1964 1. There is a serious condition of over-crowding at Roosevelt School. The enrollment as of October 1, 1964- is four hundred and four ( 0 ) children in Kindergarten and grades 1 44 through 5. Studies of the school plant show that the Roosevelt School has a functional operating capacity of 336 children. 2. Other school facilities of the Board of Education, including the former Junior High School at 11 Engle Street, the Lincoln School, and all other school buildings are in full use for school purposes with the exception of Franklin School, which was previously condemned and not currently in use. 3. A survey of the area in the vicinity of the Roosevelt School in the second ward reveals that there are no available properties as suitable for development for school purposes as is the above-mentioned Edgewater Creche-Rethmore Home property. 4. The above-mentioned Edgewater Creche-Rethmore Home property is the most desirable and economical solution to developing additional school facilities in the Roosevelt School area for the following reasons: a. The present Roosevelt School site, which includes 3.23 acres, is already below today's state standards for the size of an elementary school site. b. The Creche property is adaptable to development as a school site. c. The estimated cost to acquire this property by condemnation, $150,000.00, is within the reasonable ability of the City to pay. d. The size of the Creche property, six acres, plus the present Roosevelt School site, brings the total size of the site close to the minimum standards recommended by the state for a school of the size contemplated by the Board of Education. e. The location of the Creche property, adjacent to the Roosevelt School site, makes it administratively feasible to operate as a single unit and to share common facilities that would be costly to duplicate at a more distant location. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE BOARD OF EDUCATION OF THE CITY OF ENGLEWOOD, IN THE COUNTY OF BERGEN, NEW JERSEY, that in order to obtain said land for school purposes mentioned above, a metes and bounds description of which said land is annexed hereto, made a part hereof, and marked Schedule A, the amount of money estimated to be necessary under revised statutes of New Jersey R. S. 18:6-59 to obtain title to said land is 3150,000.00, and said estimated sum of $150,000.00 takes in the estimated cost of acquiring the land by condemnation, and

The annual financial report of the Englewood Public School Food Service, submitted by the Director, and the May and June monthly reports, were received and placed on file. Statements of receipts and expenditures, submitted by the Business Manager of the Interscholastic Athletic Program, were received and placed on file as follows: Football games - Bergenfield; Rutherford. The President, after announcing that Dr. Frank H. McCloskey had submitted his resignation as a member of the Board of Education, read a letter to be sent to Dr. McCloskey in recognition of his services. The following statement was read by the President: The Board of Education is entrusted with a dual responsibility: first, to operate the public schools in such a way that each child obtains the best possible education, and second: to plan intelligently for future educational needs so that school facilities will be fully adequate to meet the exacting requirements of modern education. In August 1963, after careful and prolonged study of the critical problems facing the public school system at that time, the Board announced both its plan for a central sixth grade school to be
Board of Education Minutes, November 9, 1964 established during the same year at 11 Engle Street, and its long term concepts for meeting future educational needs in the best possible way. The central sixth grade plan, now in effect, does not require a detailed description. In its long term thinking, the Board was concerned with a group of problems facing the schools. Some of these problems were recognized to be acute; others, while not imminent, nevertheless, could not be ignored in any plan for the immediate future. These problems were as follows: 1.
-5-
The urgent and immediate need to renew facilities at the Dwight Morrow High School that over the years had become increasingly obsolete and unsatisfactory; among them, the science laboratories and industrial arts shops. The obvious desirability of transferring the sixth grade program to the Englewood Junior High School site with the creation of a middle school. Such an arrangement would require a four-year program at Dwight Morrow High School with sufficient expansion of facilities to house the 9th grade. The Board is presently negotiating with an outstanding architectural firm to prepare the plans for this project. The selection of an architect follows several months of careful screening of a number of well-qualified firms. His name will be announced in the near future. The Dwight Morrow faculty and administration have been preparing the educational requirements of a comprehensive secondary school program for 1100 pupils in grades 9 to 12 in conjunction with their preparations for the forthcoming evaluation by the Middle States Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools in 1966.
2.
3.
The increasing obsolescence of Liberty School and the desirability of replacing these facilities at a more advantageous location. A study of the facilities at Liberty School clearly indicates that this school should not be considered in any long-range building use program. Much of the building is of non-fireproof construction, the second-floor auditorium presents a serious safety hazard, the gymnasium does not meet fire safety regulations and health building code requirements. Furthermore, the instructional spaces do not meet the demands of a modern forwardlooking educational program. The site of 2.26 acres does not warrant the substantial investment that would be required to bring this building up to present-day standards of safety, health, and comfort. Already the annual repairs to plumbing, electrical lines, and floor covering are substantial; repairs to building, roofing, and chimney projected for the next five to ten years represent costly investments considering the age of the building (60 plus years).
Board of Education Minutes, November 9, 1964 4.
-6-
The need to be in a position to deal more flexibly with problems presented by a community that may continue to have expanding neighborhoods that are virtually all-Negro. The Board believes that it is unrealistic to continue to maintain four or five relatively small neighborhood schools. In the long run it makes more sense both educationally and financially to plan for the consolidation of elementary school facilities at no more than three locations, which we have termed "elementary education centers." Such consolidation will reduce significantly, problems constantly confronting the Board regarding the need to shift elementary school boundary lines to achieve equalized class loads. It should be emphasized that these problems called for a program of renewal, not expansion. They result not from a rapidly expanding school population but from three-fold obsolescence of certain school structures; (1) lack of adaptability to modern educational needs and concepts, (2) lack of conformity to current standards of health, safety and comfort, and (3) lack of efficient operation leading to excessive expense in operation and maintenance.
Moreover, any plan to deal with these problems would not be a new plan, but simply an extension of efforts the Board and the community have made over the years to update and upgrade the school plant. These problems have not changed in the last 15 months; if anything, they have been intensified! The Board became aware some months ago that the Creche-Rethmore property might become unavailable for school purposes. Since the acquisition of this property was critical to the Board's plans for consolidating elementary schools into three educational centers, it became necessary to prepare a detailed analysis of the Board's long-range plans in order to support the request of the Board for the condemnation of the Creche property for school use. This analysis was requested by the City Council members of the Board of School Estimate; it was therefore necessarily designed to meet that special requirement. While the report was prepared under conditions of urgency, the thought that went into it was the product of long study and deliberation by the staff and Board members. The data contained in the report are suitable for the type of planning involved. Accordingly, while the analysis was not prepared in its present form for public consideration, we believe the report is an adequate expression of the ways in which the Board proposed to meet the problems confronting the school system, problems already described.
Board of Education Minutes, November 9, 1964 Since there have been many requests that the report be released to the public, the Board has authorized the Superintendent to do so. It will be noted that in its broad aspects, the recommendations contained in the report do not differ importantly from those outlined in the Board's statement of August 1963.
-7-
While the Board still holds to the overall concept of how the immediate and long term problems facing the school system can best be dealt with, it is evident that that portion of the plan envisioning use of the Creche property no longer is applicable. Hence, the Board over the coming weeks and months must re-study that aspect of the plan. It also should be emphasized that we are fortunate to be able to bring to bear on these problems the resources of a great University through its Graduate School of Education. The Center for Field Studies of the Harvard Graduate School of Education is presently engaged in a study of future school enrollments and an examination of the Board's long range plans for meeting future educational needs. Mr. John M. Trout, Director of Instruction, gave a presentation on the activities of his department. Mr. Philip Allocca explained the Speech Program that is being conducted in the Englewood Schools. The President called for comments from the audience and the following responded: Mrs. Betty Grossman; Angela McLinn. Dr. Ruth Deutsch; Mr. Leo Shohan; Mrs.
Subjects: Anticipated program to assist children with speech problems, next year; program for children that are brighter than averagethat do not need a remedial program; enrichment program; Dr. McCloskey reconsider his resignation; Ford Foundation funds for high school students. On motion made, seconded and carried, the meeting adjourned at 9:25 p. m.
