NJ's best elementary school has lessons for all of us | Opinion
This year, School No. 28 in Paterson earned impressive recognition in U.S. News & World Report ’s 2026–2027 rankings, named the No. 1 public elementary school and No. 2 public middle school in New Jersey. This outstanding achievement reflects the talent, dedication, and hard work of Principal Nancy Castro, the school’s teachers, administrators, educational support professionals, students and families. It is a milestone worth celebrating across the Paterson community and our state.

Newark Latino families and labor organizers are asking the school district to require professional interpreters at every board meeting after they say Spanish-speaking parents’ public comments were incompletely interpreted at a recent meeting. Rafael Chavez, a community organizer with the New Labor advocacy organization, said in the absence of a qualified interpreter at last month’s school board meeting, superintendent Roger León stepped in to interpret some parents’ public comments. Chavez told Chalkbeat the issue of interpretation has come up repeatedly at previous Newark board meetings, including at the September meeting where he testified in Spanish without an interpreter. According to Chavez, León omitted portions of parents’ statements that Chavez said criticized how they and their children have been treated in district schools. In a review of the board video , Newark parents Sonia Pangul, Mayra Sanmartin, and Brenda Villatoro Villela can be heard testifying in Spanish about concerns regarding their children’s treatment in district schools and the lack of availability of music, sports, and
