October 28, 2026 Special Meeting

Hackensack Public Schools’ special meeting on October 28, 2026, included personnel, curriculum, and legal resolutions. The board approved the preschool education aid operational plan and a resolution covering continuity of service and accumulated sick leave for paraprofessionals moving from full-time to part-time positions. It also approved a contract for the senior high school’s June 2027 prom at Westmount Country Club; the transcript indicates the event costs will be covered by student ticket revenue and fundraising, but gives no contract amount. The business administrator was authorized to complete the booking and related paperwork.

The board also approved student organizations’ participation in Hackensack’s October 31 “Slam Dunk the Junk” cleanup event, accepted municipal funding of $500 per participating organization for student activities and scholarship funds, and authorized related field trips and transportation as needed. The resolutions were approved by roll call; no specific procurement dollar amount or vendor award amount was stated beyond the municipal stipends.
