Recommended Action WHEREAS, by letter of March 20, 2015, the Commissioner of Education issued a revised decision regarding the
expansion of the Hoboken Dual Language Charter School (HoLa); and
WHEREAS, this decision followed an appeal of the determination made by the Department of Education on March 28,
2014, which led the Department of Education to ask the appellate court for an opportunity to revisit its decision
based on the issues raised by the Hoboken Board of Education; and
WHEREAS, the revised decision reflects many of the same flaws, including a failure by the Department of Education
to consider accurate student census data, as well as the socioeconomic and financial impact of continued expansion
on the Hoboken Public Schools; and
WHEREAS, the Board believes that these considerations are crucial to ensuring the well-being of our schools and the
students they serve,
