Dumont BOE Calendar, Office Visit Help & Meeting Information
If you need the Dumont Board of Education, the most useful details are spread across the district’s Board, calendar, registration and school pages. This guide brings together the current BOE meeting route, district calendar, board office contact details, school directory, registration help, meeting records and public-information links.
One detail needs extra care right now: the current BOE page lists the next monthly meeting for October 15, 2026, while the earlier annual meeting notice lists October 22, 2026. Check the live BOE page again before you travel.
Dumont Board of Education quick facts
Board
Dumont’s Board of Education has nine members. Three seats are elected annually, and members serve without salary.
Board office
David Dervitz Education Center, 25 Depew Street, Dumont, NJ 07628.
Meetings
Regular meetings are generally held at the Board office at 7:00 p.m., unless a notice gives another location or time.
Office hours
The official district pages reviewed do not publish one universal public walk-in schedule for the Board office. Call before visiting.
Do not guess office hours. The official Board and district pages provide the address and phone number but not a single general walk-in schedule for every service. Registration, records and other tasks may have their own appointment or department process.
Next Dumont BOE meeting: current page vs. annual notice
As of October 2, 2026, the live Board of Education page identifies the upcoming monthly meeting as Thursday, October 15, 2026 at 7:00 p.m. at the Board of Education Office, 25 Depew Street. It also provides a Dumont BOE livestream link.
The earlier 2026–2027 Annual Notice of Meetings lists the October meeting as October 22, 2026. Because those two official pages currently disagree, the safest approach is to use the live BOE page and check again shortly before leaving home.
Current BOE page

7:00 p.m.

Earlier annual notice

Travel check: when two official pages conflict, do not rely on a copied calendar or search snippet. Open the current BOE page on the day of the meeting, then call 201-387-3080 if the date or location is still unclear.

Dumont Board of Education office hours: what is actually published?
The official pages reviewed publish the Board office address and main phone number, but they do not show one universal set of public walk-in hours for every Board-office service. That means it is better to call before visiting than to assume standard business hours.
Before you go
Call first if you need registration, records, business-office help or another department service. Some tasks have their own contact person or appointment process.
Dumont school calendar and live events are not the same thing
Dumont Public Schools publishes school-year calendar files and a separate live events calendar. The district calendar page currently lists both the 2025–2026 and 2026–2027 district calendars, while the live calendar is better for day-by-day school events and updates.
2026–27 district calendar
Use the official School District Calendars page for the 26–27 calendar and any later replacement or update.
Live events
The live events area separates district-wide events from Dumont High School, Honiss, Selzer, Grant and Lincoln calendars.
Calendar shortcut: use the district calendar for school-year planning. Use the live events calendar for current activities. Use the BOE meeting pages for Board meetings, agendas and minutes.
How to find Dumont BOE agendas and minutes
The district keeps agendas and approved minutes on separate pages. For 2026–2027, the agenda archive already lists the September 17, 2026 agenda and finance addendum. The minutes page lists July 16 and August 20, 2026 minutes in the 2026–2027 school-year section.
Check the meeting date first
Confirm the live Board page or annual notice so you are looking for the right meeting.
Open the agenda before the meeting
Use the Board Meeting Agendas page for the planned business and any posted finance or personnel addendum.
Use minutes after approval
Minutes are the better record for what was formally recorded after the meeting.
Use the livestream for current access
The current BOE page provides a Dumont BOE livestream route for the upcoming meeting.
Student privacy: Board records are not the same as student records. Attendance, grades, health information, discipline and other student-specific records should go through the appropriate school or district private process, not public comment.
Dumont Board of Education members
The current BOE page lists nine members. Board membership and officer roles can change after elections or reorganization, so use the live Board page before sending formal correspondence.
| Name | Position |
|---|---|
| Theresa Riva | President |
| Emily Waver | Vice President |
| Kelly DeCongelio | Board Member |
| Katie Gerber | Board Member |
| Scott Miller | Board Member |
| Stephanie Petriello | Board Member |
| Jeffrey Pollack, Ed.D. | Board Member |
| Karen Valido | Board Member |
| Janice Worner | Board Member |
What the Board does: the district describes the Board’s main responsibility as establishing policy and making sure the schools are well run. Formal Board action can only be taken at an official public meeting.
Call the school first for student-specific questions
Dumont’s school sites have separate offices and phone numbers. For attendance, a teacher question, schedule issue, school event or student-specific concern, the school office is usually the better first contact than the general Board office.
| School | Address | Phone |
|---|---|---|
| Dumont High School | 101 New Milford Avenue, Dumont, NJ 07628 | 201-387-3000 |
| Honiss School | 31 Depew Street, Dumont, NJ 07628 | 201-387-3020 |
| Selzer School | 435 Prospect Avenue, Dumont, NJ 07628 | 201-387-3030 |
| Lincoln School | 80 Prospect Avenue, Dumont, NJ 07628 | 201-387-3040 |
| Grant School | 100 Grant Avenue, Dumont, NJ 07628 | 201-387-3050 |
Dumont school registration, preschool and residency help
The current Registration page separates 2026–2027 new-student enrollment, 2027–2028 kindergarten registration, preschool, change-of-address requests for current Dumont students and residency affidavits. It also lists dedicated contacts instead of sending every registration question to the main Board number.
K–12 registration
For K–12 registration questions, the district lists Kelly Consiglio at 201-387-3079.
Preschool
The district currently says preschool registration has a waitlist and directs families to complete an application for the preschool contact.
Residency verification: the district FAQ states that kindergarten residency verification takes place at the Board of Education building at 25 Depew Street and is by appointment. Current registration instructions should always be used because document requirements can change.
Genesis is Dumont’s student information system for 2026–2027
Dumont moved to Genesis for the 2026–2027 school year. The district says the Parent Portal is used for schedules, attendance, grades, report cards, progress reports, teacher communications and emergency-contact information.
The district also says required registration forms must be completed before students can access some district technology, Google Apps, student email, schedules or teacher assignments. Families are encouraged to complete the forms on a computer rather than a phone.
Portal help: if a family is having trouble with Genesis, the district directs them to the child’s school office for help.
What to know before speaking at a Dumont BOE meeting
The district says Board meetings are an opportunity to communicate with Board members about general policy, district and educational matters. It also notes that questions requiring research are better submitted to the superintendent before the meeting so a fuller answer can be prepared.
Closed sessions may be used for subjects such as personnel, individual students, property matters, attorney-client privilege or public safety. Formal Board action on those matters must occur at an official public meeting.
Keep student information private. Do not use public comment to disclose a student’s grades, health information, disability details, discipline history, address or other private education records.
