About the board...title
The Mine Hill Township School District is governed by a seven-member Board of Education. Board members are elected to three-year terms and are responsible for managing the district's operations in accordance with state laws and regulations set by the New Jersey Department of Education.
The Board typically meets once (or occasionally twice) a month on Mondays, with meetings beginning at 6:30 PM (public session at 7:00 PM). Meeting schedules, including dates, times, and locations, are announced in advance in accordance with New Jersey’s Sunshine Law. The Board’s duties include establishing school policies, approving personnel appointments, adopting budgets, approving curriculum, awarding bids, and, in certain cases, making final decisions on controversial issues.

Mine Hill Township School District Goals • 2026–27title
Student Learning
Goal 1 - ELA
By June 2027, strengthen student achievement in English Language Arts through effective implementation of CKLA, targeted professional development, and coordinated intervention and high-impact tutoring. Use assessment data and regular progress monitoring to adjust instruction and supports, with the aim of increasing student growth and proficiency on the NJSLA ELA assessment.
Goal 2 - Mathematics
By June 2027, strengthen student achievement in mathematics through effective implementation of Big Ideas Math, targeted instructional coaching, and coordinated intervention and high-impact tutoring. Use assessment data and regular progress monitoring to address learning gaps and adjust instruction, with the aim of increasing student growth and proficiency on the NJSLA mathematics assessment.
School Climate
Goal 3 - Belonging, Engagement, and Access
By June 2027, strengthen an inclusive school climate that promotes student belonging, positive behavior, regular attendance, and family engagement. Establish consistent schoolwide practices, improve accessible communication and outreach, and coordinate instructional and language supports so multilingual learners and their families can participate fully in the school community.
Facilities
Goal 4: - Long-Range Planning and Rear-Site Improvements
By June 2027, use the recent Facility Review & Conditions Report to prioritize facility needs and guide development of the district’s Long-Range Facilities Plan. Establish recommended project phases, cost estimates, and funding considerations, while overseeing the planning and preparation needed to advance the rear-site improvement project for summer 2027 construction.
Board Goals • 2026–27
Goal 1: Health-Benefit Costs and Financial Sustainability
By June 2027, evaluate employee health-benefit costs and available alternatives to maintain quality coverage while protecting district resources and student programs. Use a comparative analysis of district and employee costs, coverage, provider access, and contractual requirements to guide board decisions.
Goal 2: Enrollment and Future Building Capacity
By June 2027, establish a planning framework to address potential enrollment growth associated with new housing development and changing district needs. Use enrollment projections and an assessment of classroom capacity, staffing, and facilities to identify when additional resources or building expansion may be needed.
Goal 3: Dover Tuition and Send-Receive Agreement
By June 2027, advance negotiations with Dover Public Schools to seek a lower, financially sustainable tuition rate and develop an updated send-receive agreement for board consideration. Address tuition calculations, future cost increases, educational services, and the responsibilities of both districts to support a stable, transparent partnership for Mine Hill students in grades 7–12.
