BOE Retreat - 10/29/2026

The Cherry Hill Public Schools Board of Education held a special meeting and retreat on October 29, 2026. During public comment, speakers questioned the district’s academic and student-support goals, raised concerns about how students with disabilities and other groups are treated, and criticized fiscal stewardship, property taxes, and state school funding. These were public comments; the transcript records no related board vote or spending action.

The retreat training, led by Dr. Lori Banlow, focused on public engagement and internal and external communications, including communicating strategic goals, listening to community members, maintaining consistent channels for updates, and following board policies and chain of command. The superintendent described recent community forums and plans to continue engagement. The board thanked the trainer and adjourned. No procurement activity, contract award, bid approval, or purchasing decision was identified.
