On September 30, 2024, the Edison Board of Education passed a resolution to abolish Policy 5756. In accordance with Board of Education policy, any policy adoption, revision, or abolishment requires two readings and approval by the Board of Education. It cannot be abolished until it is voted on again at a subsequent Board of Education meeting, and therefore, it continues to remain in effect.
As Superintendent, I am both committed and required to adhere to all New Jersey state laws regarding anti-discrimination including the New Jersey Law Against Discrimination (NJLAD). I will continue to ensure that all students in Edison Township Public Schools are served fairly and in accordance with the law. We are currently discussing this matter with the Board of Education attorneys, and I will keep the community informed of further developments.
