At last night’s meeting of the Board of Education, State District Superintendent of Newark Public Schools Christopher Cerf announced that the district’s Personnel Transition Plan has been given official approval by the state’s education commissioner. Cerf, along with BOE Chairperson Marquis-Aquil Lewis, signed the official plan to cheers.
