E. Athletics
 
1. NJSIAA Athletic Co-Op
Recommend Board approval to enter into a NJSIAA athletic co-op with Pitman High School in Field Hockey for the 2022-2023 school year due to low participation numbers at Pitman.  Prior approval has been received by the Tri-County Conference Athletic Directors.  Glassboro will be the Lead School (LEA) in this partnership. (attachment)
 
F. Miscellaneous
 
1. Graduation Requirement/Credits
Recommend Board approval to change the Glassboro High School graduation requirements by decreasing the required amount of credits to graduate from 140 credits to 130 credits for students attending GHS day school program or 120 credits for students who have spent one semester or more in the Alternative Evening School (AEHS).  This will assist those students who have attempted credit recovery to graduate on time, and will likewise prevent students from accruing enough credits to graduate after their junior year.  The GHS schedule affords students the ability to accrue up to 40 credits per year, 160 credits total over 4 years.  The State of New Jersey requires students have 120 credits in order to graduate. (attachment)
 
2. Summer Enrichment Program Staff
Recommend Board approval of the following staff members to participate in the Summer Enrichment Program, up to 3.5 hours per day, 4 days per week. The program was BOE approved in April 2022 and will run from July 11, 2022 to August 4, 2022 at J. Harvey Rodgers School with students in Grades K-5 and at GHS with students in Grades 6-8.
