Board meetings, votes and the district's finances, collected from public filings and kept in one place. Two ways in: browse the record, or ask about it.
Browse and search the whole record in one place: agendas and votes, meeting video with transcripts, warrants, purchase orders, vendor accounts and the district's financials.
Put a question to an analyst that has read the record: what was decided, what was promised, what doesn't add up. Every answer cites the document it came from. Version 2.5, with the record updated through October 2, 2026.
Ask a question in Spanish and get the answer in Spanish. Ask in Mandarin, Vietnamese, Tagalog, Punjabi or Hindi, or almost any other language, and the answer comes back in that language. The record itself is in English, so quotes from it stay in English with a translation beside them, and every citation still opens the original.
Each one gets the same answer from the district's enrollment pages: start in ParentVUE, then the extra TK forms and proof of address. It is written in the language you asked in.
Pages and documents from newarkunified.org now sit alongside the board's agendas, transcripts and attachments: enrollment, departments, programs and school pages. Ask about how something works, not just what the board voted on.
Budget books, audits, the board policy manual and state guidance run to hundreds of pages. The analyst now opens the sections that hold the answer and reads them word for word, down to a reserve figure on page 45.
Ask who was superintendent, or who chaired the board in a given year, and the answer shows the succession as a timeline drawn from the record.
Every answer suggests what to ask next. Click a name to ask about that person, and share any answer with a permanent link.
If this is useful to you, a coffee helps keep it going. Anonymous is fine too: leave the name blank and stay signed out.
