Linden Board of Education Meeting | September 17, 2026

The Linden Board of Education held its monthly meeting on September 17, 2026. The meeting included routine approvals of minutes and reports from the superintendent, education, finance, planning and policy, and personnel committees. Key procurement-related discussions focused on capital improvement projects such as the district family resource center, playground installations at school number 10, and classroom renovations. Additional architectural service costs for the family resource center were noted, along with expenditures for playground equipment and security cameras, with funding primarily drawn from the district's Capital Reserve. The board approved motions related to these projects and non-public school funding purchases. Public comments raised concerns about security spending and policy consistency, while the administration addressed ongoing construction delays and safety measures. Personnel appointments and a settlement agreement were also approved during the meeting.
